--- format: rst categories: projects toc: no ... ======== Git Wiki ======== 'Git Wiki' is a django__ app which stores a hierarchy of articles/items in a git__ repository; each item is formated in reStructured Text, which can be reinterpreted into XHTML or LateX (and thus a pdf document). __ http://djangoproject.com/ __ http://git.cx It's implemenatation is '''incomplete'''. For personal use I ended up moving to gitit__; see http://know.bnewbold.net for an example. Features ~~~~~~~~ Full File History Because all files are stored in a repository all changes are tracked and can be reverted. It could be interesting to watch the evolution of a larger or controversial item. PDF Output Using a combination of `LaTeX`__ and rubber [#]_, portable document files can be generated on the fly (with figures etc included) LaTeX Math in (X)HTML When rendering to (X)HTML LaTeX math sections are rendered to png and inserted as images __ http://know.bnewbold.net/software/latex .. [#] A python wrapper around LaTeX and pdflatex which does a great job handling bibliographies, weird image formats, etc. Dependencies ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pygments_ A python library for highlighting and/or typesetting source code. Used to format diffs (aka, history of items) rubber_ Python script to make LaTeX compliation less painful. .. _Pygments: http://pygments.org/ .. _rubber: http://www.sourceforge.net/rubber Development ~~~~~~~~~~~ The source tree can be browsed at `bn-project `__; you'll have to look for an old branch or tag? To Do ----- * implement per-section commentary * possibly implement aafigure ascii->svg plugin for docutils * possibly implement auto linking for CamelCase text (probably not) * implement grouping many articles into single pdf/book automagicly * possibly implement web-based editing/item creation Similar Projects ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * http://spu.tnik.org/ * http://gitit.net/
