== Creating a Local Labs wiki ==
== Installation ==
Our MediaWiki instances are installed from git to allow easy rebasing of our changes on upgrades.
For the full details on this installation method, see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download_from_Git
The initial setup process (probably outdated now) lookd like this:
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/core.git --branch REL1_34 wiki-devel
cd wiki-devel
git submodule update --init
Checkout additional extensions we wish to enable. For ease of management, check them out into extensions-all and then symlink them from extensions/
EXTENSIONS=CheckUser ContributionScores HTMLets LastUserLogin LdapAuthentication MobileFrontend TimedMediaHandler UniversalLanguageSelector UserMerge VisualEditor Widgets
mkdir extensions-all
for i in EXTENSIONS; do
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/$i extensions-all/$i --branch REL1_34;
(cd extensions && ln -s ../extensions-all/$i);
composer update --no-dev
done
== Upgrading ==
'''Note:''' Before blindly following the procedure below, check the official documentation for anything that might have changed:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download_from_Git#Keeping_up_to_date
We update our MediaWiki instances by simply pulling from the remote git repo and then switching to a different stable branch:
git fetch
git branch -a | grep REL | sort -V
git checkout -b REL1_XX origin/REL1_XX
git submodule update --init --recursive
The "extensions-all" directory contains a bunch of git repositories stitched together with 'git submodule'.
To update it:
cd extensions-all
for ext in *; do (cd $ext && git fetch && git checkout -b REL1_XX origin/REL1_XX); done
Along with the extensions, we would also need to update the skins to the latest release. We officially use Vector (fro Desktop) and Minerva Neue (for Mobiles, v1.35+, Minerva Neue is the official responsive theme used by Wikipedia).
cd skins
for skin in *; do (cd $skin && git fetch && git checkout -b REL1_XX origin/REL1_XX); done
Please revise if the following steps are still needed:
You also need to update some dependencies using a PHP manager called 'composer':
composer update --no-dev
Now run update script:
php maintenance/update.php
In the case of Local Labs wikis, the correct command for performing the updates is:
php maintenance/update.php --conf /srv/www-sugarlabs/pe.sugarlabs.org/wiki/LocalSettings.php
(replace pe.sugarlabs.org for the correct path for your local lab)
== Obsolete documentation ==
=== SemanticMediaWiki ===
If the SemanticMediaWiki extension is enabled (we don't use it), also refresh its tables:
cd extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/maintenance
php SMW_setup.php
=== Skins ===
As of this writing, the default skin vector is integrated into MediaWiki, and we don't load other skins in LocalSettings.php.
The skins also need to be updated from time to time (particularly after a major release). Instead of checking out hundreds od skins using the official process, we refresh only the skins that are installed:
cd skins
for i in MonoBook Timeless; do
(cd $i && git fetch && git checkout -b REL1_34 origin/REL1_34)
done
