How to run

Assume your docker host is localhost and HTTP public port is 8000 (change these values if you need).

First, run new dokuwiki container:

docker run -d -p 8000:80 --name dokuwiki nerka/docker-dokuwiki:latest

Then setup dokuwiki using installer at URL http://localhost:8000/install.php

How to make data persistent

docker run -d \
-p 8000:80 \
--name dokuwiki \
-v /home/docker/wiki/dokuwiki-storage:/var/dokuwiki-storage \
nerka/docker-dokuwiki:latest

Note: only these folders are backed up:

data/pages/
data/meta/
data/media/
data/media_attic/
data/media_meta/
data/attic/
conf/

On the container launch, the start.sh script check if there are files in /var/dokuwiki-storage. if there is , they are used.

Persistent plugins

Dokuwiki installs plugins to lib/plugins/, but this folder isn't inside persistent volume storage by default, so all plugins will be erased when container is re-created. The recommended way to make plugins persistent is to create your own Docker image with this image as a base image and use shell commands inside the Dockerfile to install needed plugins.

You can also edit the start.sh and put the lib/plugin directory in the dokuwiki-storage dir
