DEPRECATED

This version of the project is considered depricated (and no longer being developed). Development has moved to here:

https://gitlab.com/skewed-aspect/tome

(That version has not had it's first release yet, so it's still valid to use this version, just please understand that it will not be updated/maintained.)

Tome Wiki

Tome is an attempt to create a wiki that is slim, trivial to deploy, looks clean, and is written as a modern web application. It's core features are:

  • Built in search
  • Revision history
  • Ability to diff page revisions
  • 3-way merge resolution
  • Syntax-highlighted editor
  • Markdown syntax
  • Mobile support
  • Persona-backed user system
  • Blog style Comments on pages
  • Logo/Name/CSS customization
  • (New) Anchor Tag support

Current Status

Right now I'm closing in on my first preview release.

The following items are left:

  • 3-way merge resolution

Installing

To get going with tome, you will need to either make a new node project, or at the very least, make a new directory. Tome is installed as an npm package, and requires a couple of lines of code from you to get running. (This is so that we can allow you to easily customize it, without needing to edit any of the core files.)

Assuming you've made a directory called example-wiki, you should do the following:

$ cd example-wiki
$ npm install tome

This will install the latest version of Tome into the example-wiki directory.

Setup

Now, the bare minimum you need is a file to launch the Tome wiki:

var tome = require('tome');
 
tome.listen();

That's it! Now, you should have a tome instance running on http://localhost:4000.

Customizing

In order to customize Tome, you will want to add a configuration file. I recommend copying the config.example.js file from the main repository, and modifying that. It has some nice explanations about what the configuration options do, and how to use them. (Still, some of the information is replicated here, to make it easier to find.)

Serving static files

Tome uses connect as it's middleware. This means that it should be trivial for you to use connect to serve static files. ( Note: Tome uses connect 0.2.X at the moment. ) If you want to do so, you can do the following:

var connect = require('connect');
var tome = require('tome');
 
// Serve our local static directory
tome.app.use(connect.static('static'));
 
// Start the server
tome.listen();

This will serve the contents of the static directory at the root of your website.

Custom Logo

You can customize the logo used for Tome. Simple set the logo config option to any valid url, and it will load that logo in the navbar, as well as use it for the favicon. ( Note: The logo will be forced to 50px high. If you want this to look good on high dpi screens, I recommend using a logo that is 100px high. Width is less important, but if you make it too wide, it could cause issues with flow in the navbar. )

Custom CSS

While Tome doesn't support custom CSS directly, it does support an 'extra template' that is included at the bottom of the <body> tag in the index page. This means that in you config file, you can do:

...
 
extraTemplate: "/partials/custom_css.html"
 
...

Then, you will have to serve some static directory, and inside of it place a partials folder with a custom_css.html file inside of it. Here is an example of such a template:

<link href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Electrolize" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<link href="/css/dice.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="/css/powers.css" rel="stylesheet">

Testing

TBD.
