(Article under construction)
This is a guide to setting up a MediaWiki on a Raspberry Pi, eventually to include a disk image of a pre-configured setup.
Parts needed
- Raspberry Pi - Model B.
- SD Card, at least 8GB.
- USB drive or stick.
- Powered USB hub.
- A router between the Internet and your LAN.
For initial configuration, the following will be needed:
- USB keyboard.
- Either HDMI or DVI monitor.
- Monitor cable. Either mini-HDMI or mini-HDMI to DVI adapter cable.
Software needed
- An SD format program.
- An image writer.
- A disk image of the current version of wheezy Raspbian Pi.
Raising up a LAMP
LAMP stands for Linux Apache MySQL PHP (mainly). It's the "solution stack" needed for most web-based applications.
Get it together
That's how I role
It's a matter of style
Getting the show on the road
Once the MediaWiki is running and configured on your LAN, and has enough content, it's time to make it available. (If you want to. If it's a local in-house Wiki, you're done!)
Poking a hole through the router
DNS
Bots and bad actors
As soon as your Wiki is on the Internet, the bots and script-kiddies will come calling.
Other options
MediaWiki is powerful and quite useful for presenting lots of organized information, but it's not the only game in town.
TiddlyWiki / TiddlyWeb
WordPress
