Drive Wikimaker

Drive Wikimaker generates a static wiki website from documents in a user's Google Drive account.

It consists of three subprojects:

  • A node.js web service which scrapes documents from a Google Drive directory
  • An admin console front-end for the web service
  • A public-facing webpage for browsing the exported documents

See the subprojects' respective README's for more details on setup and configuration.

IntelliJ .iml module files are supplied for each sub-project, but can be ignored if not using IntelliJ.

This project may not get regularly updated. Please fork.

You can see it in action here: http://wiki.zeropointnine.com
