NAME
ikiwiki - a wiki compiler
SYNOPSIS
ikiwiki [options] source templates destination
DESCRIPTION
ikiwiki is a wiki compiler. It builds static html pages for a wiki, from source in the [[MarkDown]] language, using the specified html templates and writes it out to destination .
OPTIONS
Note that most options can be shortened to single letters.
-
--wikiname
The name of the wiki, default is "wiki".
-
--verbose
Be vebose about what it's doing.
-
--rebuild
Force a rebuild of all pages.
-
--wrapper
Generate a [[wrapper]] binary that is hardcoded to do action specified by the other options, using the specified input files and destination directory.
The wrapper is designed to be safely made suid and be run by untrusted users, as a [[Subversion]] [[post-commit]] hook, or as a [[CGI]].
Note that the generated wrapper will ignore all command line parameters except for --params, which will make it print out the parameters it would run ikiwiki with.
-
--svn, --nosvn
Enable or disable use of [[subversion]]. If subversion is enabled, the source directory is assumed to be a working copy, and is automatically updated before building the wiki.
In [[CGI]] mode, with subversion enabled pages edited via the web will be committed to subversion. Also, the [[RecentChanges]] link will be placed on pages.
Subversion is enabled by default.
-
--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.
-
--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 to generate a wrapper. The wrapper will generally need to run suid 6755 to the user who owns the source and destination directories.
-
--url http://someurl/
Specifies the url to the wiki. This is a required parameter in [[CGI]] mode.
-
--cgiurl http://someurl/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://svn.someurl/trunk/[[]]?root=wiki
Specifies the url to link to for page history browsing. In the url, "[[]]" is replaced with the page to browse. It's common to use [[ViewCVS]] for this.
