aimonb/nexusis_mediawiki — version 2.0.4 Mar 17th 2014

Mediawiki module for Puppet (forked by NexusIS)

Nexus IS Fork

This fork brings the module up to date with latest dependency modules as well as adds a Type and Provider for MediaWiki Extensions.

Description

This module deploys and manages multiple mediawiki instances using a single mediawiki installation. This module has been designed and tested for CentOS 6, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, Debian Squeeze, Debian Wheezy, and Ubuntu Precise.

Usage

First, install the mediawiki package which will be used by all wiki instances:

class { 'mediawiki': server_name => 'www.example.com', admin_email => 'admin@puppetlabs.com', db_root_password => 'really_really_long_password', doc_root => '/var/www/wikis' max_memory => '1024' }

Next, create an individual wiki instance:

mediawiki::instance { 'my_wiki1': db_password => 'super_long_password', db_name => 'wiki1', db_user => 'wiki1_user', port => '80', ensure => 'present' }

Using this module, one can create multiple independent wiki instances. To create another wiki instance, add the following puppet code:

mediawiki::instance { 'my_wiki2': db_password => 'another_super_long_password', db_name => 'another_wiki', db_user => 'another_wiki_user' port => '80', ensure => 'present' }

You can now also manage Extensions:

mediawiki::manage_extension{'ConfirmAccount': ensure => present, instance => 'my_wiki1', source => 'https://codeload.github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-ConfirmAccount/legacy.tar.gz/REL1_22', doc_root => '/var/www/wikis', require => Mediawiki::Instance['my_wiki1'] }

Preconditions

Since puppet cannot ensure that all parent directories exist you need to manage these yourself. Therefore, make sure that all parent directories of doc_root directory, an attribute of mediawiki class, exist.

Notes On Testing

Puppet module tests reside in the spec directory. To run tests, execute rake spec anywhere in the module's directory. More information about module testing can be found here:
