Wiki (Bookstack)
Bookstack is a user friendly Wiki software which the NYC Mesh Wiki is built on.
This wiki is deployed via helm and github actions from nycmeshnet/wiki-infra
MVP Wiki Launch Features
Before the Wiki can be more broadly used (and and possibly replace docs.nycmesh.net) we must add some key features:
Required
- Simple introduction
- Ensure everything a new volunteer/stakeholder would benefit from seeing is linked in the introduction book.
- Hardware page to show extent of documentation and another "book".
- Ensure everything a new volunteer/stakeholder would benefit from seeing is linked in the introduction book.
- Support for old users
- Old to new mapping
- 1. sitemap mapping of old page to new?
- 2. update all docs pages with a link to the wiki equivalent.
- Page redirects on docs
- Old to new mapping
- Full duplicate of docs.nycmesh.net content - to avoid information fragmentation, we should migrate a full copy of all existing docs content
- Merge any dupe Docs and Wiki pages (ex. hubs?)
- Replace high level links to docs (nycmesh.net header "Docs" replaced with "Wiki")
Nice to have
- Mesh hosting - Currently on AWS, but we could move to Mesh hosting fairly easily.
- Mesh LAN based user creation - Ideally a member on the mesh should be allowed to create an editor account without involving admins.
- This is possible with a custom theme but needs more development. A disabled in-development theme file is included in the themes directory.
