docker-mediawiki

A working docker-compose orchestration of PHP7-fpm / nginx / mysql and mediawiki

About

I have been looking around for a decent docker-based orchestration of Mediawiki, yet haven't found one. As an exercise I got Mediawiki running on lightweight Alpine Linux based docker images of latest nginx, and php7-fpm w/ Mediawiki. This setup uses MySQL for persistence, but you can use any of the engines that mediawiki supports (postgres, sqlite etc.).

Usage

docker-compose up -d

This will get you a brand new mediawiki installation, you need to install it by visiting http://localhost

Options

Some of the volume properties in the docker-compose.yml have been commented out. When uncommented, you can auto-import a SQL backup and mount an existing LocalSettings.php for mediawiki to bootstrap an existing wiki.

TODO

• Generate Makefile to template some of this out for different scenarios
• Is there an official alpine-nginx container? If so, use that.
• Enable caching
• HTTPS/SSL cert support
