Mediawiki.el is a package to help add content to any mediawiki site including WikEmacs. It comes with a Major Mode to support editing Mediawiki markup.
Basic setup
Install mediawiki.el from el-get or ELPA.
Customization
- M-x load-library RET mediawiki RET
- Load the library
- M-x customize-variable RET mediawiki-site-alist
- Configure as follows and save your settings
- Site Name: WikEmacs
- URL: http://wikemacs.org/w/
- Username: InCognito
- Password: s!cr!t
- First Page: Main Page
- You can provide "Username" and "Password" in your .authinfo file. home directory.
Alternatively you can add this snippet of Emacs Lisp code to your .emacs:
(require 'mediawiki)
(setq mediawiki-site-alist '(("Wikipedia" "http://en.wikipedia.org/w" "" "" "Main Page")
("WikEmacs" "http://wikemacs.org/w/" "" "" "Main Page")))
;; Emacs users care more for WikEmacs than Wikipedia :-)
(setq mediawiki-site-default "WikEmacs")
You can naturally add more MediaWiki sites to the mediawiki-site-alist variable.
