Re: [asciidoc-discuss] asciidoc format wiki?
Hello,
I use asciidoc in wiki-like fashion. I wanted something simple as a personal
wiki - I don't need neither collaborative features of wiki nor revision
control ( I use subversion for that ). After trying several wiki engines and
web frameworks I ended up with a simple webpy application similar to
http://www.sitepoint.com/blogs/2006/01/06/a-simple-wiki-with-webpy/ .
Instead of markdown in that example I use asciidoc and it works very well so
far.
The only hack was to link /usr/bin/asciidoc to asciidoc.py in the directory of
web.py application. Now I can simply import asciidoc and use it as a python
module, I call for example
asciidoc.asciidoc('xhtml11', 'article', (), page, 'stdout', ())
from my python code and display the result as a web page. This means, that I
have directory full of my text documents in asciidoc format, and I can view
them on-the-fly as xhtml in my web browser.

along with the -s option you can markup a text stream. For example try:

Not very sophisticated but may be useful as a proof of concept.

I think what is needed is to allow the asciidoc-library to be used as a
backend to python-based wiki's. For that there should be a usable
interface for asciidoc. (eg. a loadable asciidoc module maybe)
I haven't looked at the code yet if it is possible. But if it isn't I
don't think it would be a lot of work to do it.
I imagine something like a textfile (asciidoc) based wiki. Files are
kept in git, so i can use vim (with adopted vimki) to write asciidoc
textfiles and commit those. Modifying a suited wiki solution to show
htmls generated from the asciidoc files and perform a commit on pressing
the save button after editing over web frontend.
We want this for our work as well. An asciidoc-frontend and indexing
system for storage of text-files. The backend is a versioning system
(subversion in our case).
I see the folowing advantages:
* easy export in lots of format, thanks to asciidoc
* fast and reliable storage through git
* collaborative writing by syncing git repositories
* comfortable browsing by wiki web frontend
* store non text blobs in git - list them in some way for access (don't
know about the best way.
Right, nothing to add here :)
Maybe a python based wiki is most suited for an direct asciidoc
integration...
What do you think about? Have a akin homebrew solution? Tell me.
I'm willing to commit time to this as well. I'm very interested in using
Django combined with this. Keep me in sync, whatever you plan to do :)
Kind regards,
