What is MoinMoin?

MoinMoin is a free and open source wiki engine implemented in Python, with a large community of users. See https://moinmo.in/ for more details.

Usage

$ docker run -p 8080:80 takumaw/moinmoin

You can now access your instance via http://localhost:8080 in your browser.

You can also use the image with docker-compose, for example:

version: '3.1'

services:
  moin:
    image: takumaw/moinmoin
    ports:
      - 8080:80
    volumes:
      - ./var/www/html:/var/www/html
      - ./var/www/moin:/var/www/moin
      - ./var/log/nginx:/var/log/nginx
      - ./var/log/moin:/var/log/moin

Image structure and configuration

This image has a MoinMoin setup with Nginx and uWSGI, run by Supervisord.

(See also: https://moinmo.in/HowTo/NginxWithUwsgi )

Image's volume folder structure is described below:

• /var/www/html/ ... has static contents, accesible via http://HOSTNAME:PORT/FILE_PATH.
• /var/www/moin/ ... is a moinmoin instance directory.
  • config/
  • data/
  • server/
  • underlay/
• /var/log/nginx/ ... is the Nginx log directory. Stores access.log and error.log.
• /var/log/moin/ ... is the MoinMoin log directory.

URL routing is described as:

• First an url is considered as a static file; corresponding file is searched under /var/www/html/.
  • e.g. If you place favicon.ico under /var/www/html/favicon.ico, you can access it via http://HOSTNAME:PORT/favicon.ico.
• Second, if an url is matched to /moin_staticXXX/xxx, files under /var/www/html/moin_static/ and /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/MoinMoin/web/static/htdocs/ is searched in this order.
• Finally, an url is handled as a MoinMoin page.

If /var/www/moin is empty (e.g. it's first time to boot a container), the container will automatically generate a new site under this directory from /usr/local/share/moin with additional settings (done by docker-entrypoint.sh):

• By default, user 'root' is set to a superuser.
  • You can create 'root' via http://localhost/LanguageSetup?action=newaccount .
• The instance_dir is set to os.path.join(wikiconfig_dir, os.pardir), which points to /var/www/moin.
• All scripts under /var/www/moin/server is configured to use this wiki instance.
