Wiki Static Site Generator

First, install and run a local wiki.

npm install -g wiki
wiki \
  --security_type=friends \
  --data ./data

Visit http://localhost:3000. Claim the wiki as your own. Choose a flag. Create a few pages.

Quit the local wiki server.

Generate the static site.

npx wiki-ssg build --from data --dest site

Run a simple http server.

npx http-server site

Visit http://localhost:8080 to test the static wiki.

Development

To upgrade to a new version of wiki, update the version in package.json, and then re-install dependencies:

npm install

Probably also need to update the link for NPM global install

npm install -g .

Use the instructions at the top of the page to re-generate a site and run the simple http server to test that the updates work as expected.

Then commit and push the changes.

git add .
git commit -m "upgrade wiki to version..."
TAG=$(npm version patch)
git push --atomic origin main "$TAG"

Development with a custom wiki client

npm install $PATH_TO_CUSTOM/wiki-client/
cd node_modules/wiki-client
npm install
npm install grunt
npx grunt build
cd ../..
npm install -g .

Use the instructions at the top of the page to re-generate a site and run the simple http server to test that the updates work as expected.

To reset the dev environment to a released version

rm -rf node_modules
npm install
npm install -g .
