Documentation

Wiki plugin

Wiki is based off of taiga.io's project wiki module. The budget plugin was modified to create this plugin. The main reason for this plugin is behind the need to keep project documentation together with a project and give access to the same user listing. This is also the solution to issue 358. There are many chat integrations that kanboard has and many wikis out there. However, none of the open-sourced wikis or any I'm aware of have great integrations that easily share users with other solutions.

This section is available from project settings page: Project > Wiki. There is also a shortcut from the drop-down menu on the board.

Supported

• Simple wikipages per project
• Backup of previous versions of wikipages as editions

Wikilink

Find the wiki button for a project in the menu dropdown.

Wikipage detail

Very similar to task screen. You can edit via a modal. Copies are stored as editions. Should support uploading COMING SOON. Desired look will be to be able to reorder wikipages via dragging on left column.

Editions Listing

Can see previous editions saved of a wikipage. Can also restore from this page. Note that you can only restore saved editions. So you if you have the global setting Saving Editions as false then you are not currently saving editions when you make changes.

Development

After a change must update the version in Plugin.php and Makefile

Plugin.php E.g.

public function getPluginVersion()
{
    return '0.2.6';
}

Makefile E.g.

version=0.2.6

To run a new build type make. NOTE: this only zips files in the last commit in the branch you are on. If you haven't commited your changes these won't be included in the zip.

After testing create a new tag in github or via cli. git tag -a 0.2.6 -m "Translations Updates". Then git push origin --tags Then upload the new Wiki-version.zip produced from make. Then do a pull request on https://github.com/kanboard/website for the plugins.json to update the plugin url. The version & download attributes are important to be correct.
