<__red__> Greetings - it occurs to me this may be a better place to ask
<__red__> I need to set up a wiki for a project. Any recommendations for the more minimal-fuss wiki implementtaion to run on a nixos webserver?
<__red__> I was looking for something I could just add to my nixos configuration declaratively, but I don't see anything that matches.

<samueldr> :/ the nixos wiki is installed (IIRC and AFAIK) statefully and not declaratively
<samueldr> and mediawiki is kinda painful to manage generally, so it may not be "minimal-fuss"
<samueldr> (but while it's a pain, it's highly powerful)
orivej has joined #nixos-wiki
<__red__> are there any docs for mediawiki that you know of?
<__red__> I see the package, but I don't really see any guidence as to which options should be used etc...
<__red__> and that nixos' wiki is installed statefully is good information to know - let's me know that if I need to 'cheat' I won't be the only one :-)
<samueldr> there's / was support for some php applications installed declaratively with apache in nixos
<samueldr> check the nixos/tests about wordpress
<samueldr> you can probably infer how to use mediawiki from there
<samueldr> but I'm not sure how good the experience is
<samueldr> and if you don't want to use apache, then it won't work
<__red__> Gotcha
<__red__> I might look at foswiki - looks a little more plug and play but a few revs out of date
<__red__> may be easier to bring that to current and configure

<__red__> so - what I said about foswiki? maybe not
<__red__> stuff like this makes me nervous:
<__red__> collision between `/nix/store/n8ya8cl5ws97pprrxy1clfi4kxxhpvgc-shadow-4.6/bin/login' and `/nix/store/xvc2wi7vyw9r21kv3ar05bw8cz4m7l7h-perl5.28.0-foswiki-2.1.0/bin/login'
<makefu> as long as nix chooses "the right" login it is probably okay :D
<__red__> hah
<__red__> Well - the version in nixpkgs has a security issue too
<__red__> so getting that working, then updating...
<__red__> not a bad thing for me to do for the community once I get something else up
<__red__> I'm kinda slammed for time right now :-/
<makefu> don't worry, everybody is
<Mic92> __red__: if the github wiki is enough for you, you can use https://github.com/gollum/gollum
<Mic92> the big disadvantage though is the lack of multiple users.
<__red__> Well - I just got mediawiki working
<__red__> and I now have the version bumped to 1.31.1 (latest)
<__red__> (the version in master currently is out of support and has security issues)
<__red__> question is - do I add myself as maintainer for that package now?
<__red__> I am for sure going to blog how to configure it in nixos
<__red__> since that doesn't seem to exist right now
<makefu> for added visibility, add a short article to nixos.wiki where you reference your article :)
<__red__> heh
<__red__> I should
<__red__> I wonder how long it will take to get this PR accepted
<__red__> sometimes it feels like swimming through mud
<__red__> brb
<__red__> done
<{^_^}> #51475 (by redvers, 23 seconds ago, open): mediawiki: 1.29.1 -> 1.31.1
<__red__> we'll see how long it takes to propogate
<__red__> err, propergate
<__red__> er, propagate
<__red__> err, take to run through the process
<__red__> ;-)
<Mic92> infinisil: will review hopefully soonish :)
<__red__> coolio
<__red__> Now - where is that wiki ...
<__red__> nixos.wiki
<__red__> (!)
<__red__> hmm, whereabouts in the wiki would a howto go?
<__red__> I mean - it would end up on its own page of course, but where would it link to
