or 
    [[wiki:Linux]]
or
    [[wiki:Linux][Linux]]  
  • wiki-asset-sys:<pagename>/<asset file name>

Example:

     wiki-asset-sys:Linux;LearnLinux.pdf

FAQ

What is a personal wiki/ desktop wiki?

It is a digital notebook or a note taking app integrated with desktop. Some examples are Zim Wiki, Microsoft OneNote and Tomboy (software).

What org-wiki is not

  • It is not a server wiki like Mediawiki (Wikipedia Engine) or Dokuwiki. So it has no administrative panel and user account and so on. Despite it not be a server wiki, it can serve org pages (*.org files) exported html with Python3 web server help in read-only mode.

Why org-wiki?

Server wikis are hard to manage and install for a single user and requires installation of a web server like Apache, PHP and a database server like MySql or PostgresSQL.

Desktop wikis like org-wiki, Zim, OneNote and Tomboy are easier to install and manage than server wikis and has less memory requirements.

The problems of many wikis are the lack of a good text editor, extensibility and desktop integration. Org-wiki solves that by putting the Wiki inside the most awesome text editor: Emacs and everything is just one keybinding or one command away. Another advantage is the org-mode format and Emacs integration that provides fast editing, fast refactoring, headline folding, fast table manipulation, export to many formats like html, pdf and so on, Latex equations and literate programming in many languages like C, C++, Python, R and so on.

You can see Org-mode Screencasts and reviews here:

Workflow

Create a page

To create a page do:

  • 1. M-x org-wiki-index - It goes to the Org-wiki index page (index.org).
  • 2. Then run M-x org-wiki-create and a page name like ‘CNC - Computer Numerical Control’

It will insert a hyperlink at point like:

[[wiki:CNC%20-%20Computer%20Numerical%20Control][CNC - Computer Numerical Control]]
  • 3. Then click at the link or enter C-x C-o at the link to open it.

Browse a page

The navigation can be done by running

  • M-x org-wiki-index

or

  • M-x org-wiki-helm that will show a helm combobox menu where the user view all pages and search a page by typing its name.

or

  • M-x org-wiki-helm-frame to open a page in another frame (Emacs terminology for GUI window).

Install

Installation Methods

Method 1 - Bootstrap installer

Evaluate this code in the scratch buffer that will install all dependencies and this package. The scratch buffer can be evaluated with M-x eval-buffer.

(let ((url "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/caiorss/org-wiki/master/org-wiki.el"))     
      (with-current-buffer (url-retrieve-synchronously url)
	(goto-char (point-min))
	(re-search-forward "^$")
	(delete-region (point) (point-min))
	(kill-whole-line)
	(package-install-from-buffer)))

Method 2 - El-get

Just copy this piece of code to scratch buffer and eveluate the buffer with M-x eval-buffer. It is assumed that el-get is already installed.

(el-get-bundle org-wiki
  :url "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/caiorss/org-wiki/master/org-wiki.el"
  :description "Emacs' desktop wiki built with org-mode"
  :features org-wiki
  )

Method 3 - Manual installation

Copy the package to the desired location.

mkdir -p ~/.emacs.d/packages/ 

cd ~/.emacs.d/packages/ 

git clone  https://github.com/caiorss/org-wiki

mkdir -p ~/org/wiki    # Make wiki location. 

Configuration

Basic settings

Make org-wiki directory

  • M-x make-directory ~/org-wiki

Add to init file ~/.emacs.d/init.el or ~/.emacs

(require 'org-wiki)

Org-wiki can configured programatically by setting the org-wiki custom varibles or with M-x customize-group org-wiki.

Path to Wiki location

Path where all org-wiki pages (*.org files) are stored.

(setq org-wiki-location "~/org/wiki")

or in Windows it could be:

(setq org-wiki-location "e:/projects/org-wiki-test.emacs")

Open org-wiki pages in read-only

If the custom variable org-wiki-default-read-only is set to true (t) org-wiki pages are opened in read-only mode. The default value of this variable is nil (false). It is useful to avoid unintentionally change an org-wiki page.

The read-only mode can be toggled with M-x toggle-read-only or C-x C-q.

  • Open org-wiki pages in read-only mode.
(setq org-wiki-default-read-only t)  
  • Open org-wiki pages in non read-only mode.
(setq org-wiki-default-read-only nil)  ;; Default value

Server settings

Org-wiki can serve the pages exported to html with python help.

The variable org-wiki-server-port (default value 8000) sets the default port that Python web server will listen to.

It can be set with:

(setq org-wiki-server-port "8000") ;; 8000 - default value 

The variable org-wiki-server-host (default value 0.0.0.0 - all hosts) sets the host that the Python server will listen.

It can be set with:

(setq org-wiki-server-host "0.0.0.0")   ;; Listen all hosts (default value)
(setq org-wiki-server-host "127.0.0.1") ;; Listen only localhost 

Export Settings

In order to the html export work the path to emacs executable directory must be in the $PATH variable. In some OS like Windows where this path is not in $PATH variable it is necessary to set the variable org-wiki-emacs-path like:

(setq org-wiki-emacs-path "c:/Users/arch/opt/emacs/bin/runemacs.exe")

Optional: This package provides the command M-x org-wiki-make-menu that installs a menu on the menu bar.

The menu can be installed permanently by adding the init file:

(org-wiki-make-menu)

Template

The user can set the org-wiki template used to create org-wiki files by changing the custom variable with

  • M-x customize-variable org-wiki-template

The default template is:

#+TITLE: %n
#+DESCRIPTION:
#+KEYWORDS:
#+STARTUP:  content


- [[wiki:index][Index]]

- Related: 

* %n

where:

  • %n is replaced by the page name
  • %d is replaced by current date in the format year-month-day

This variable can also be set programatically with:

(setq org-wiki-template
      (string-trim
"
#+TITLE: %n
#+DESCRIPTION:
#+KEYWORDS:
#+STARTUP:  content
#+DATE: %d

- [[wiki:index][Index]]

- Related: 

* %n
"))

Start the wiki

  • M-x org-wiki-index to go to index.org
  • New pages can be created with M-x org-wiki-link that asks for wiki word and inserts at point a hyperlink to the wiki page.
  • References to existing pages can be inserted with M-x org-wiki-insert.

Example: If the current page is Python and the user selects the file QTScreenshot.png it will insert a hyperlink to this file that will be rendered as an image when current page is exported to html.

[[file:python/QTScreenshot.png][file:python/QTScreenshot.png]]
M-x org-wiki-asset-insert-block

Example:

If the current page is ‘Smalltalk programming’ it the user select the file ‘extendingClasses-number1.gst’ it will insert a code block with the file contents and a hyperlink to it at point.

 - File: [[file:Smalltalk%20programming/extendingClasses-number1.gst][file:Smalltalk programming/extendingClasses-number1.gst]]

Example: If the current page is ‘Smalltalk programming’ and the user select the file ‘numerical-methods-in-smalltalk.pdf’ it will be opened with the default system’s application like Foxit PDF or Okular reader.

Commands to Download Files

M-x org-wiki-asset-download-insert1
  • M-x org-wiki-asset-download-insert1 - Ask the user the url to download a file suggesting the url stored in the clipboard and then asks the file name. After download it inserts a hyperlink at point to open the file with systems’ default application.

Bookmarklets

Bookmarklets are small pieces of Javascript used for browser automation and as an ad-hoc browsers extensions, encoded as hyperlinks that can be stored in the web browser’s bookmark toolbar.

If you don’t kwnow what is a bookmarklet see:
