So you want to set up your own wiki using ikiwiki? This turorial will walk
you through setting up a wiki that is stored in [[Subversion]] and that has
optional support for commits from the web.

1. [[Install]] ikiwiki.

		apt-get install ikiwiki

2. Create the subversion repository for your wiki.

		svnadmin create /svn/wikirepo
		svn mkdir file:///svn/wikirepo/trunk -m create

3. Check out the repository to make the working copy that ikiwiki will use.

		svn co file:///svn/wikirepo/trunk ~/wikiwc

4. Create some files and add them into subversion.

		echo "Welcome to my empty wiki." > ~/wikiwc/index.mdwn
		echo "Feel free to edit this page" > ~/wikiwc/sandbox.mdwn
		svn add ~/wikiwc/*.mdwn
		svn commit ~/wikiwc -m add

5. Build your wiki for the first time.

		ikiwiki --verbose ~/wikiwc/ ~/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.

6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 as desired, editing or adding pages and rebuilding
   the wiki. You can play around with other ikiwiki parameters such as
   --wikiname too. Get conformatble with its command line.

7. Set up a Subversion [[post-commit]] hook to automatically rebuild your
   wiki when you commit to it.

		ikiwiki ~/wikiwc/ ~/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/ \
			--url=http://host/~you/wiki/ --wrapper --cgi
		chmod 6755 ikiwiki-wrap
		mv wrapper ~/public_html/wiki/ikiwki.cgi

   Note that this assumes that your web server will run CGI scripts from
   your public_html directory. You might need to put it somewhere else
   depending on your web server configuration.

9. Add links to the CGI to all the pages in your wiki, and update your
   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) \
			--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. 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/doc/[[]]?root=wiki'

11. Enjoy your new wiki!
