1. [[Install]] ikiwiki.
- apt-get install ikiwiki
+ apt-get install ikiwiki # soon
+
+ Ikiwiki requires [[MarkDown]] be installed, and also uses the following
+ perl modules: `CGI::Session` `CGI::FormBuilder` `HTML::Template`
2. Create the subversion repository for your wiki.
5. Build your wiki for the first time.
- ikiwiki --verbose ~/wikiwc/ ~/public_html/wiki/ \
- --url=http://host/~you/wiki/
+ ikiwiki --verbose ~/wikiwc/ \
+ /usr/lib/ikiwiki/templates ~/public_html/wiki/ \
+ --url=http://host/~you/wiki/
Replace the url with the right url to your wiki. You should now
be able to visit the url and see your page that you created earlier.
7. Set up a Subversion [[post-commit]] hook to automatically rebuild your
wiki when you commit to it.
- ikiwiki ~/wikiwc/ ~/public_html/wiki/ \
+ ikiwiki ~/wikiwc/ \
+ /usr/lib/ikiwiki/templates ~/public_html/wiki/ \
--url=http://host/~you/wiki/ --wrapper
mv ikiwiki-wrap /svn/wikirepo/hooks/post-commit
8. Set up a [[CGI]] to allow editing the wiki from the web.
- ikiwiki ~/wikiwc/ ~/public_html/wiki/ \
+ ikiwiki ~/wikiwc/ \
+ /usr/lib/ikiwiki/templates ~/public_html/wiki/ \
--url=http://host/~you/wiki/ --wrapper --cgi
chmod 6755 ikiwiki-wrap
mv wrapper ~/public_html/wiki/ikiwki.cgi
post-commit hook to add such links when updating the wiki in the
future. Note the use of the [[WrapperParamsTrick]].
- ikiwiki $(/svn/wikirepo/hooks/post-commit --params) --rebuild
ikiwiki $(/svn/wikirepo/hooks/post-commit --params) \
- --cgiurl=http://host/~you/wiki/ikiwiki.cgi \
- --wrapper
+ --cgiurl=http://host/~you/wiki/ikiwiki.cgi --wrapper
mv ikiwiki-wrap /svn/wikirepo/hooks/post-commit
+ ikiwiki $(/svn/wikirepo/hooks/post-commit --params) --rebuild
Be sure to change the cgiurl to the actual url to the wiki.cgi you
installed in step 9.
-10. Enjoy your new wiki!
+10. 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 parameter makes ikiwiki add the links, and in that url, "[[]]" is replaced with the name of the file to view. So repeat step 9 to rebuild the wiki post commit wrapper and wiki, adding a historyurl something like this one:
+
+ --historyurl='http://svn.host/trunk/[[]]?root=wiki'
+
+11. Enjoy your new wiki! Add yourself to [[IkiWikiUsers]]
