Role dokuwiki

Makes sure that all required packages for a DokuWiki powered by php-fpm are installed.

The DokuWiki tarball has to be unpacked to /var/www/dokuwiki (see variable below) manually afterwards. Please download it from https://download.dokuwiki.org.

Supported Distributions

The following distributions are supported:

• Debian 11
• Debian 12

Required Arguments

None.

Optional Argument

• dokuwiki__installpath: Where your DokiWiki lives, default /var/www/dokuwiki
• dokuwiki__php_version: Your PHP version, default 7.4 for Debian 11 and 8.2 for Debian 12
• dokuwiki__php_user: User of your php-fpm process, default www-data
• dokuwiki__nginx_user: User of your nginx process, default nginx

nginx Configuration

This role does not configure your nginx server. Please take a look at https://www.dokuwiki.org/install:nginx for a starting point.

This role expects to work with our nginx role, which installs nginx from nginx's repo instead of Debian's package. This means, that nginx will not run as the www-data, which is used by php-fpm.

So your server directive in the nginx configuration needs to use:

  root /var/www/dokuwiki;

  [...]

  location ~ \.php$ {
    [...]
    fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php-fpm-dokuwiki.sock;
  }

Updates

This role doesn't handle updates. Please use the updater from Dokuwiki's admin interface to install updates.
