wysiwiki

A very simple site management system with indexed static content.

Features:

• Creating pages wiki-style - i.e. navigating to a non-existing page allows its creation
• Page editing is WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) via CKeditor 5
• Pages are automatically indexed
• The index is a hyperlinked, navigable component available on all pages
• All content is stored as plain files on the file system
• All pages function (albeit read-only) when loaded directly from the file-system - i.e. double-click on the file on disk, and you get the same navigable view you would get via a web server

Create/Read/Update/Delete operations and indexing are managed on the back end with a Java servlet.

Building

1. Ensure you've got Mavin installed.
2. Run the following command in the base directory:
   mvn package

This will build a web application archive: target/wysiwiki.war

Installation

1. Drop wysiwiki.war into Tomcat's webapps directory.
2. Edit Tomcat's server.xml, inserting the following into the <GlobalNamingResources> tag:

    <Resource name="wysiwiki-users" auth="Container"
              type="org.apache.catalina.UserDatabase"
              description="User database that can be updated and saved"
              factory="org.apache.catalina.users.MemoryUserDatabaseFactory"
              pathname="conf/wysiwiki-users.xml"
	      readonly="false"/>

1. Restart Tomcat.
2. Browse to http://${hostname}/wysiwiki

The default author username is wysiwiki with a password wysiwiki.
