Demos





Not working: ETI sample data (in-wiki), ETI SDD full screen

Quick links


New Wiki setup


Test configs (Workbench Portal, Main version already active) waiting for virtual host to be activated in DNS:

All virtual hosts have a forwarding index.html. Enumeratio, Scholz, SmutBase no longer installed, better integrated into a phytomed or other wiki.

wmf wikis

for testing the indexing extension:


NaviKey

See NaviKey

Uncompleted work

  • OpenID!
  • autoconfirm of accounts does not work yet (mailer returned error)
  • Insert Char:
    • Phytomed wiki is working ok with a fairly straightforward CharInsert solution; see the Debian Install page for further information
    • English phytopathology is not working, the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Edittools.js was created, but is not called yet. Place where the JavaScript is bound needs to be found!

Image uploading and handling

The real images are behind a special folder distribution mechanism, based on a MD5 hash of the filename. For an image example.jpg, Both Media:example.jpg, File:example.jpg, and Image:example.jpg (obsolete) will return the metadata page, not the image itself. DOES THE WIKI has no native mechanism for a short URL to the image itself?

Mediawiki has an internal function that provides this: {{filepath:file name}}. However, the issue is calling an image from outside (Navikey, IBIS-ID) by name...

Perhaps create a small extension that does this? In PHP inside mediawiki, the following may work:

  $url = wfFindFile(Title::makeTitle(NS_IMAGE, $fileName))->getURL();


Image uploading:

Todo: encoding problem with svg files

Scalable vector graphics are rendered by rsvg but it cannot handle utf8 characters, so German umlauts cannot be used:

  cd ~/temp
  rsvg /var/www/v-species/o/media/e/e1/Blätter_schematisch.svg \ 
  Blätter_schematisch.png
→ Invalid byte sequence in conversion input
