twestley Has anyone explored the capability of maintaining and synchronizing two copies of a wiki? We're considering using DokuWiki for a small team of software developers. The wiki would be inside the corporate firewall, i.e., not accessible via the public internet. I'd like to have a copy on my laptop when I travel to customer locations. If I make a change while traveling, I'd like to sync the content later. I've created a copy of my test wiki, modified it, and found that I could successfully copy the changed bits into the original. That's fine unless someone else has changed the original while I'm changing the copy. I will use a tool such as Beyond Compare to compare and reconcile the files. Then, I could copy and paste each merged file into the edit form of each modified or new page. However, this is going to be pretty labor intensive. Suggestions for automating this procedure a little bit? --TWestley
andi I suggest unison - it syncs two way and you can set up some excludes in a config file (eg. no need to sync cache files). http://www.robmeerman.co.uk/unix:unison might be useful as well.
thibaud74 I'm testing with unison, but the transfer is long. I try to specify what files transfer only. A person in this forum suggested to transfer only the data directory. Is it a good idea ? For the moment, I stop synchronization of cache and index directories only. Can I add others directories ? If a file is modified in my laptop and in the intranet in the same time, I can use the "merge files" action, but only with data files ? Thanks, Thibaud.
