Ikiwiki requires [[MarkDown]] be installed, and also uses the following
perl modules: `CGI::Session` `CGI::FormBuilder` `HTML::Template`
+ `Mail::SendMail` `Time::Duration`
2. Create the subversion repository for your wiki.
5. Build your wiki for the first time.
- ikiwiki --verbose ~/wikiwc/ \
- /usr/share/ikiwiki/templates ~/public_html/wiki/ \
- --url=http://host/~you/wiki/
+ ikiwiki --verbose ~/wikiwc/ ~/public_html/wiki/ \
+ --url=http://host/~you/wiki/
- Replace the url with the right url to your wiki. You should now
+ Replace the url with the real url to your wiki. You should now
be able to visit the url and see your page that you created earlier.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 as desired, editing or adding pages and rebuilding
`doc/ikiwiki.setup` in the ikiwiki sources), and edit it.
Most of the options, like `wikiname` in the setup file are the same as
- ikiwiki's command line options (documented in [[usage]]. `srcdir`,
- `templatedir` and `destdir` are the three directories you specify when
+ ikiwiki's command line options (documented in [[usage]]. `srcdir`
+ and `destdir` are the two directories you specify when
running ikiwiki by hand. `svnrepo` is the path to your subversion
repository. Make sure that all of these are pointing to the right
directories, and read through and configure the rest of the file to your
9. Add [[PageHistory]] links to the top of pages. This requires you to have
setup [[ViewCVS]] or something similar to access your [[Subversion]]
repository. The `historyurl` setting makes ikiwiki add the links, and
- in that url, "[[]]" is replaced with the name of the file to view. So
+ in that url, "\[[file]]" is replaced with the name of the file to view. So
edit ikiwiki.setup and set `historyurl` to something like this:
- `http://svn.host/trunk/[[]]?root=wiki`
+ `http://svn.host/trunk/\[[file]]?root=wiki`
Then run `ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup` again.
