MediaWiki-Docker/Extension/ORES

Install mediawiki with docker

• Clone MediaWiki repo:

  git clone ssh://<USERNAME>@gerrit.wikimedia.org:29418/mediawiki/core.git mediawiki
  

• Add this in docker-compose.override.yml to use mysql and expose the port to our localhost

  services:
    database:
      image: mariadb
      environment:
        MYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD: 1
      volumes:
        - ./cache/dbdata:/var/lib/mysql
      ports:
        - "3306:3306"
  volumes:
    dbdata:
      driver: local
  

  composer update --no-dev
  docker compose up
  

• We run the following command to install and configure mediawiki. We name the database as enwiki otherwise ORES service won’t be able to find a model for a wiki name that doesn’t exist. Alternatively we could point to another service that would have such a wikiname e.g. a local running instance of ores-legacy app.

  docker compose exec mediawiki /bin/bash -c '''php maintenance/install.php --server=http://localhost:8080 --scriptpath="/w"  --dbuser root --dbserver database --dbname enwiki --lang en --skins=Vector --with-extensions --pass $MY_PASS enwiki $MY_USER'''
