Installation

Ubuntu

If you are using Ubuntu 14.04, you can use install.sh.

git clone https://github.com/scragg0x/realms-wiki
cd realms-wiki
sudo bash install.sh

OSX / Windows

This app is designed to run in Linux and I recommend using Vagrant to install on OSX or Windows.

Vagrant

Vagrantfile is included for development or running locally. To get started with Vagrant, download and install Vagrant and Virtualbox for your platform with the links provided

https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads

Then execute the following in the terminal:

git clone https://github.com/scragg0x/realms-wiki
cd realms-wiki
vagrant up
vagrant ssh
realms-wiki dev

Check http://127.0.0.1:5000/ to make sure it's running.

Config and Setup

You should be able to run this right out of the box with the default config values. You may want to customize your app and the easiest way is the setup command.

realms-wiki setup

This will ask you questions and create a config.json file in the app root directory. Of course you can manually edit this file as well. Any config value set in config.json will override values set in realms/config/__init__.py

Nginx Setup

sudo apt-get install -y nginx

Create a file called realms.conf in /etc/nginx/conf.d

sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/realms.conf

Put the following sample configuration in that file.

server {
  listen 80;
  
  # Your domain here
  server_name wiki.example.org;
  
  # Settings to by-pass for static files 
  location ^~ /static/  {
    # Example:
    root /full/path/to/realms/static/;
  }
    
  location / {
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
  
    proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000/;
    proxy_redirect off;
    
  }
}

Test Nginx config

sudo nginx -t

Reload Nginx

sudo service nginx reload

Current there are different ways.

  • Daemon mode using upstart
