Here's how to get ikiwiki. See [[setup]] for how to use it, and be sure to add your wiki to [[IkiwikiUsers]] if you use ikiwiki.

tarball

The best place to download a tarball of the latest release is from http://packages.debian.org/unstable/source/ikiwiki.

packages

If using Debian (since 4.0), or Ubuntu (since 6.10):

    apt-get install ikiwiki

Note that Debian 4.0 and especially Ubuntu 6.10 contain older versions of ikiwiki, there have been lots of enhancements and bug fixes since those versions.

Or download the deb from http://packages.debian.org/unstable/web/ikiwiki.

While this deb has been developed on Debian unstable, it should also work on stable, although to get the CGI stuff working on stable, you will need to upgrade to a newer version of libcgi-formbuilder-perl, 3.05.

There is also an unofficial backport of ikiwiki for Debian 'sarge', provided by Pawel Tecza, at http://gpa.net.icm.edu.pl/debian/.

revision control

subversion

The current development version of ikiwiki can be accessed using subversion at svn://ikiwiki.info/ikiwiki/trunk

The source in subversion can be browsed here.

Commits to ikiwiki's source code are now fed into CIA, and can be browsed, subscribed to etc on its project page. Note that changes to the documentation wiki are currently excluded.

git

A git mirror of the trunk of the subversion repository is available at http://ikiwiki.info/ikiwiki.git/.git. It is updated whenever changes are committed to the subversion repository.

An unofficial arch mirror of the subversion repository is at http://arch.debian.org/arch/private/srivasta/archive-2006-misc and can be browsed here.
