# NAME
|
|
|
|
ikiwiki - a wiki compiler
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
ikiwiki [options] source destination
|
|
|
|
ikiwiki --setup configfile
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
`ikiwiki` is a wiki compiler. It builds static html pages for a wiki, from
|
|
`source` in the [[MarkDown]] language (or others), and writes it out to
|
|
`destination`.
|
|
|
|
Note that most options can be shortened to single letters, and boolean
|
|
flags such as --verbose can be negated with --no-verbose.
|
|
|
|
# MODE OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
These options control the mode that ikiwiki is operating in.
|
|
|
|
* --refresh
|
|
|
|
Refresh the wiki, updating any changed pages. This is the default
|
|
behavior so you don't normally need to specify it. If used with -setup also
|
|
updates any configured wrappers.
|
|
|
|
* --rebuild
|
|
|
|
Force a rebuild of all pages.
|
|
|
|
* --cgi
|
|
|
|
Enable [[CGI]] mode. In cgi mode ikiwiki runs as a cgi script, and
|
|
supports editing pages, signing in, registration, and displaying
|
|
[[RecentChanges]].
|
|
|
|
To use ikiwiki as a [[CGI]] program you need to use --wrapper or --setup
|
|
to generate a wrapper. The wrapper will generally need to run suid 6755 to
|
|
the user who owns the `source` and `destination` directories.
|
|
|
|
* --wrapper [file]
|
|
|
|
Generate a wrapper binary that is hardcoded to do action specified by
|
|
the other options, using the specified input files and `destination`
|
|
directory. The filename to use for the wrapper is optional.
|
|
|
|
The wrapper is designed to be safely made suid and be run by untrusted
|
|
users, as a [[post-commit]] hook, or as a [[CGI]].
|
|
|
|
Note that the generated wrapper will ignore all command line parameters.
|
|
|
|
* --setup configfile
|
|
|
|
In setup mode, ikiwiki reads the config file, which is really a perl
|
|
program that can call ikiwiki internal functions.
|
|
|
|
The default action when --setup is specified is to automatically generate
|
|
wrappers for a wiki based on data in a config file, and rebuild the wiki.
|
|
If you also pass the --refresh option, ikiwiki will instead just refresh
|
|
the wiki described in the setup file.
|
|
|
|
[[ikiwiki.setup]] is an example of such a config file.
|
|
|
|
# CONFIG OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
These options configure the wiki.
|
|
|
|
* --wikiname
|
|
|
|
The name of the wiki, default is "wiki".
|
|
|
|
* --templatedir
|
|
|
|
Specify the directory that the page [[templates]] are stored in.
|
|
Default is `/usr/share/ikiwiki/templates`.
|
|
|
|
* --underlaydir
|
|
|
|
Specify the directory that is used to underlay the source directory.
|
|
Source files will be taken from here unless overridden by a file in the
|
|
source directory. Default is `/usr/share/ikiwiki/basewiki`.
|
|
|
|
* --wrappermode mode
|
|
|
|
Specify a mode to chmod the wrapper to after creating it.
|
|
|
|
* --notify
|
|
|
|
Enable email notification of commits. This should be used when running
|
|
ikiwiki as a [[post-commit]] hook.
|
|
|
|
* --rcs=svn, --no-rcs
|
|
|
|
Enable or disable use of a revision control system.
|
|
|
|
If you use svn, the `source` directory is assumed to be
|
|
a [[Subversion]] working copy.
|
|
|
|
If you use git, the `source` directory is assumed to be a clone of the
|
|
[[git]] repository.
|
|
|
|
In [[CGI]] mode, with a revision control system enabled pages edited via
|
|
the web will be committed. Also, the [[RecentChanges]] link will be placed
|
|
on pages.
|
|
|
|
svn is enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
* --svnrepo /svn/wiki
|
|
|
|
Specify the location of the svn repository for the wiki. This is required
|
|
for using --notify with [[subversion]].
|
|
|
|
* --svnpath trunk
|
|
|
|
Specify the path inside your svn reporistory where the wiki is located.
|
|
This defaults to trunk; change it if your wiki is at some other location
|
|
inside the repository.
|
|
|
|
* --anonok, --noanonok
|
|
|
|
If anonok is set, it will allow anonymous web users, who have not signed in, to make changes to the wiki.
|
|
|
|
By default, anonymous users cannot edit the wiki.
|
|
|
|
* --rss, --norss
|
|
|
|
If rss is set, ikiwiki will generate rss feeds for pages that inline
|
|
a [[blog]].
|
|
|
|
* --pingurl url
|
|
|
|
Set this to the url to an XML-RPC service to ping when an RSS feed is
|
|
updated. For example, to ping Technorati, use the url
|
|
http://rpc.technorati.com/rpc/ping
|
|
|
|
This parameter can be specified multiple times to specify more than one
|
|
url to ping.
|
|
|
|
* --url url
|
|
|
|
Specifies the url to the wiki. This is a required parameter in [[CGI]] mode.
|
|
|
|
* --cgiurl http://url/ikiwiki.cgi
|
|
|
|
Specifies the url to the ikiwiki [[CGI]] script wrapper. Required when
|
|
building the wiki for links to the cgi script to be generated.
|
|
|
|
* --historyurl http://url/trunk/\[[file]]?root=wiki
|
|
|
|
Specifies the url to link to for page history browsing. In the url,
|
|
"\[[file]]" is replaced with the file to browse. It's common to use
|
|
[[ViewCVS]] for this.
|
|
|
|
* --adminemail you@yourhost
|
|
|
|
Specifies the email address that ikiwiki should use for sending email.
|
|
|
|
* --diffurl http://url/trunk/\[[file]]?root=wiki&r1=\[[r1]]&r2=\[[r2]]
|
|
|
|
Specifies the url to link to for a diff of changes to a page. In the url,
|
|
"\[[file]]" is replaced with the file to browse, "\[[r1]]" is the old
|
|
revision of the page, and "\[[r2]]" is the new revision. It's common to use
|
|
[[ViewCVS]] for this.
|
|
|
|
* --exclude regexp
|
|
|
|
Specifies a rexexp of source files to exclude from processing.
|
|
May be specified multiple times to add to exclude list.
|
|
|
|
* --adminuser name
|
|
|
|
Specifies a username of a user who has the powers of a wiki admin.
|
|
Currently allows locking of any page, other powers may be added later.
|
|
May be specified multiple times for multiple admins.
|
|
|
|
* --plugin name
|
|
|
|
Enables the use of the specified [[plugin|plugins]] in the wiki.
|
|
Note that plugin names are case sensative.
|
|
|
|
* --disable-plugin name
|
|
|
|
Disables use of a plugin. For example "--disable-plugin htmlscrubber"
|
|
to do away with html sanitization.
|
|
|
|
* --discussion, --no-discussion
|
|
|
|
Enables or disables "Discussion" links from being added to the header of
|
|
every page. The links are enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
* --timeformat format
|
|
|
|
Specify how to display the time or date. The format string is passed to the
|
|
strftime(3) function.
|
|
|
|
* --verbose
|
|
|
|
Be vebose about what is being done.
|
|
|
|
* --getctime
|
|
|
|
Pull last changed time for each new page out of the revision control
|
|
system. This rarely used option provides a way to get the real creation
|
|
times of items in weblogs, for example when building a wiki from a new
|
|
subversion checkout. It is unoptimised and quite slow. It is best used
|
|
with --rebuild, to force ikiwiki to get the ctime for all pages.
