What's inside?
- Library: Rust bindings to Wiki.js's entire GraphQL API as well as asset up- and download via the REST API. Usable but not battle-tested
- CLI: Command-line client for those bindings allowing things like editing pages with your editor. Usable but not complete yet
- Filesystem: A FUSE filesystem to mount your wiki and work on it locally. Not usable yet, heavily work-in-progress.
Library
The library basically gives you a struct Api
that you hand the url and
credentials for you Wiki.js instance to, and that exposes functions for all
the different GraphQL queries and mutations as well as asset down- and upload
via the REST API. For detailed information check the
documentation, otherwise here a short example:
Usage
Add the following dependency to your Cargo.toml
:
[dependencies]
wikijs = "0.2"
Create an instance of Api
and use its functions:
use wikijs::{Api, Credentials};
let api = Api::new(
"http://localhost:3000".to_string(),
Credentials::Key("my-api-key".to_string()),
).unwrap();
println!("{:?}", api.page_get(1).unwrap());
CLI
This crate ships a command-line tool also called wikijs
to directly interact
with your Wiki.js instance from the CLI. On top of exposing the library
functions it also offers additional functionality like editing pages with
your favorite editor.
Build
cargo build --features=cli
Install
The CLI is packaged via cargo, as well as Debian and AUR package, see Installation for details.
Usage
The tool takes the URL and credentials either from the arguments or environment variables. For the latter option use something like this:
export WIKI_JS_BASE_URL=https://wiki.mydomain.com
export WIKI_JS_API_KEY=MY-SUPER-SECRET-API-KEY
or for password authentication use:
export WIKI_JS_USERNAME="USERNAME or EMAIL"
export WIKI_JS_PASSWORD="PASSWORD"
Note, in case you're using something else then the default authentication
provider like LDAP, you have to set the variable WIKI_JS_AUTH_PROVIDER
to
its UUID.
Then you can for example create a page named test
, list pages and edit it
with:
wikijs page create test
wikijs page list
wikijs page edit <ID>
where the ID
is found in the page list
output.
Filesystem
WARNING: Not really usable yet! Careful!
Also in case you wanna PR on this please coordinate via issues, as I'm currently heavily refactoring this to add a caching layer and include assets.
This crate also ships FUSE filesystem called wikifs
to mount your Wiki.js
instance locally and view and manipulate it with what ever programs you like.
Build
cargo build --features=fuse
Install
cargo install wikijs --features=fuse
Usage
The tool takes the URL and credentials either from the arguments or environment variables. For the latter option use something like this:
export WIKI_JS_BASE_URL=https://wiki.mydomain.com
export WIKI_JS_API_KEY=MY-SUPER-SECRET-API-KEY
Then you can mount the filesystem like so:
mkdir /tmp/wikijs
wikifs /tmp/wikijs
And in another terminal use it like this:
cd /tmp/wikijs
ls
cat test.md
provided you have a markdown
page located at /test
in your wiki.
Installation
These instructions are for the CLI only so far, as the FUSE filesystem is not ready to be shipped.
Cargo
Run the following to install the CLI from crates.io:
cargo install wikijs --features=cli
Arch
The CLI is available on AUR.
Debian and Ubuntu
The CLI is available from deb.gierens.de. The GPG public key is in this repo under deb.asc.
First make sure you have the gpg
command, and otherwise install it via:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y gpg
Then install wikijs-rs
via:
sudo mkdir -p /etc/apt/keyrings
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gierens/wikijs-rs/main/deb.asc | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/gierens.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/gierens.gpg] http://deb.gierens.de stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gierens.list
sudo chmod 644 /etc/apt/keyrings/gierens.gpg /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gierens.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y wikijs-rs
Contributing
Use small commits that make isolated changes to a single module and name them according to conventional commits.
Two parts where especially first-time contributions should be fairly easy and are also really needed is writing docstrings and integration tests. Apart from that the CLI still needs to implement many of the library functions.
Please check issues and PRs first and maybe make an issue or draft PR of your own so we can coordinate work. This is especially important for the FUSE filesystem, as I'm currently heavily refactoring that.
Testing
Since this depends on Wiki.js the integration tests located in tests/ can also not be done without it. Therefore the docker-compose.yml is used to run a local instance of it on port 80. This setup is also used in the CI workflows. Note that many tests assume the wiki to be fresh, no pages no anything ... that's why there is also no Docker volume, so that on every rebuild all previous data is lost. This also means you should make sure you removed everything yourself from the instance during debugging when testing.
The tests furthermore assume the wiki to have the following admin credentials:
- email:
admin@admin.com
- password:
password
To set this up automatically on initial startup of the wiki, you may use
scripts/finalize_wiki_setup.sh which also
assumes the wiki to run on http://localhost:80
.
