Kwik is a tiny and fast wiki engine for Markdown formatted documents, intended for personal use. It allows searching for strings and documents, and uses the filesystem as storage.
I was using my own Rails wiki kwik-ruby but felt slow. I started to be interested in Golang, therefore decided to rewrite it in Go as a learning exercise. Learning by example is the best!
I've prepared a convenient installation script. It is documented step by step:
./install
NOTE: successfully tested on MacOS 10.14 with Go 1.14
At this point you'll have a kwik server on port 2005 that starts up with your system.
If you want to uninstall it, just run:
./uninstall
Point your browser to http://localhost:2005. Create a page. Preview the content. Save it. Search for it.
All your pages will be stored as files in the pages directory.
Compile and run locally:
./build_n_serve
Still learning Go, so I haven't written tests. Shame!
