This repository stores the LocalSettings structure that I use for my MediaWiki farm.

The structure of this is pretty straightforward. The overall configuration for MediaWiki is kept in LocalSettings.php which should be a symlink from the main MediaWiki directory. This file will then pull things from:

  • wiki where the core configuration for various wikis is kept
  • secrets which are simple PHP files to store secret passwords that are not committed to source control
  • modules which are grouping of settings to enable certain capabilities

Why Share This?

Running a MediaWiki farm isn't very well documented. What documentation exists has some major gaps. I think the structure I've put together to doing this is pretty simple and easy to manage and others running farms might benefit from it.
