InstallMoinMoinOnWindows

From $1

I couldn't get mod_python to work with Apache2 on cygwin. mod_python does not yet support static linking w/apache, and I can't get apxs to build mod_python.so under cygwin.

See also [[UpgradingMoinMoinOnWindows]]

This installs MoinMoin under Apache2 on Windows as a service.

  1. Basic Install and Configure of Apache2 on Windows
  2. unzip into C:/usr/local

  3. From CMD prompt in C:\usr\local\moin-1.3.1: python setup.py --quiet install --record=install.log

  4. In Moin terminology:
    1. Location = C:/usr/local/wikis
    2. PREFIX = C:/usr

    3. MoinMoin directory (MM source) = C:\Python\Lib\site-packages\MoinMoin

    4. share directory (MM templates) = C:/Python/share/moin
  5. edit my script: setup-moin-1.3.1.sh
    • 1.How?
  6. bash setup-moin-1.3.1.sh(current directory C:/usr/local/moin-1.3.1, CMD prompt, picks up bash from cygwin.)
  7. Edit /usr/local/wikis/mywiki/cgi-bin/moin.cgi and change the shebang line to just "#!python"

  8. Test with http://localhost/mod-mywiki.

  9. You can now delete C:/usr/local/moin-1.3.1

Got this far
  1. Copy my textil.py to /usr/local/wikis/kleinfelterwiki/data/plugin/parser

  2. hack /usr/lib/python2.3/ste-packages/MoinMoin/Page.py to treat 'system' pages as wiki markup, even though they don't contain "#FORMAT wiki":

    1. Find the SendPage function (about line 650).

    2. Then find:
      1. elif verb == "acl"
      2. (about line 803)
    3. Add: 

                # kpk mod begins
                if line[:25] == '#acl MoinPagesEditorGroup':
                    pi_format = 'wiki'
                # kpk mod ends

  1. hack /usr/lib/python2.3/ste-packages/MoinMoin/PageEditor.py to show quick-help for textile and not wiki-markup:

    1. Search for QuickHelp (about line 1105).

    2. Replace the wiki-markup help with: 

=== Formatting Tips: ===
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
	<tr><td>_your text_</td><td class="arrow">?</td><td><em>your text</em></td></tr>
	<tr><td>*your text*</td><td class="arrow">?</td><td><strong>your text</strong></td></tr>
	<tr><td>%{color:red}hello%</td><td class="arrow">?</td><td><span style="color: red;">hello</span></td></tr>
	<tr><td>{background:#ddd}. Gray</td><td class="arrow">?</td><td><span style="background: #ddd">Gray</span></td></tr>

	<tr><td>http://url<br />email@address.com</td><td class="arrow">?</td><td>Auto-linked</td></tr>
	<tr><td>!imageURL!</td><td class="arrow">?</td><td>Image</td></tr>
</table>

Moin additional instance creation:
  1. edit, then run my script: setup-moin-1.3.1.sh

vi $INSTANCE/wikiconfig.py (assuming your wiki is in /usr/local/wikis/mywiki)
  1. set data_dir to /usr/local/wikis/mywiki/data/
  2. set data_underlay_dir to /usr/local/wikis/mywiki/underlay
  3. set sitename to: Your Wiki Title
  4. uncomment allowed_actions

  5. acl_rights_before="KevinKleinfelter:read,write,delete,revert,admin"

  6. acl_rights_default="KleinfelterFamilyGroup:read,write,revert All:read"

  7. default_markup = 'textil'

Notes on MoinMoin (1.3.1)

  • To alter the content of a page template (such as PageEditor.py), edit the copy in /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/MoinMoin.
