I have not used it yet. Do you mind sharing briefly what you like about
it?
It works ;-) The hosted version does not require any of your short time for maintaining the system. It is easy to use - IMHO. It is feature-rich.
Does it allow for offline editing like we can do using the github wiki?
It supports editing with local editors - i do not know if this requires an active connection. But is provides an API.
As auth provider it accepts only itself (My Atlassian) or google business :-(

but the limitations with how data is displayed (for instance, only
about
70% of the page is used for actual wiki data) make this difficult.
I'm

which
I think is the feature we're most looking for. The underlying
language
is Markdown, which we're rather familiar with. However, the rendered pages are a bit ugly. You can quickly clone the repository with > git clone git://ikiwiki.branchable.com/ <http://ikiwiki.branchable.com/> to view the demo wiki. Look in the ./doc/ folder for the actual wiki content. The rendered pages are visible at https://ikiwiki.info/ They appear to allow authentication using accounts from OpenID,
Yahoo,
WordPress, and more; in fact there's a page with discussion about
their
plans/roadmap for authentication[1]. However, it seems the path to OpenID is a bumpy one[2]. I'm more excited about Gitit[3][4]. Gitit has a git backend (or
darcs or
mercurial), pages are able to be written in about ten different
flavors
including Markdown and reStructuredText (anything understood by
Pandoc),
and it looks like Mediawiki (which isn't a big goal for me, but it's
a
common and easy-to-use structure). The default/suggested
authentication
seems to be GitHub OAuth. Downsides about it: their own wiki is a
mess
(broken links to the Install guide and README, not a whole lot of information in general), development seems slow (there are plenty of Issues and Pull Requests without a comment, last commit was 12 days ago), and it's written in Haskell (with which I'm not very familiar)
--
but this is my favorite right now. This random guy[5] has similar
goals
to ours and settled on Gitit. Finally, there is Realms[6][7] and Gollum[8]. Realms is built on
Gollum,
uses GitHub OAuth, and it looks really modern. However, the documentation seems really weak and it looks like they haven't
published
an actual release yet (though running their git 'master' branch
seems to
work okay). Realms is very interesting to me, but with my cursory examination it doesn't feel like production-ready software. I could
be
wrong. Gollum is apparently what GitHub is using for their wiki
engine.
I don't have a good sense of what Gollum is like, because as near as
I
can tell they don't have a demo and I haven't gotten around to installing it on my test machine. There's a fork to add OAuth support[9]. For looks, I think Realms acts best; it's modern and slick and easy
to
use. However, Gitit seems much more established and reliable. 1 - https://ikiwiki.info/todo/emailauth/ 2 - https://ikiwiki.info/plugins/openid/troubleshooting/ 3 - http://gitit.net/ 4 - https://github.com/jgm/gitit 5 - http://nathantypanski.com/blog/2014-07-09-personal-wiki.html 6 - http://realms.io/ 7 - https://github.com/scragg0x/realms-wiki 8 - https://github.com/gollum/gollum 9 - https://github.com/aleiphoenix/gollum-with-auth _______________________________________________ Developers mailing list Developers@phpmyadmin.net <mailto:Developers@phpmyadmin.net> https://lists.phpmyadmin.net/mailman/listinfo/developers
