MediaWiki is available as a NixOS module. Sample configuration:

services.mediawiki = {
  enable = true;
  name = "Sample MediaWiki instance";
  virtualHost = {
    hostName = "example.com";
    adminAddr = "admin@example.com";
  };
  passwordFile = "/var/mediawiki/passwordFile"; # put the initial password for the admin account here
  extraConfig = ''
    # Disable anonymous editing
    $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false;
  '';

  extensions = {
    VisualEditor = pkgs.fetchzip {
      url = "https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/extensions/VisualEditor-REL1_37-3aeea63.tar.gz";
      sha256 = "sha256:0y7yysnm64vclyj0nh18ibsbrwsycdi7f8mf8j1b991qggqnclys";
    };
  };
};

By default, the services.mediawiki module creates a services.httpd.virtualHost which can be configured via the services.mediawiki.virtualHost submodule.

If you are using another web server (like Nginx), you can configure MediaWiki for a reverse proxy with the services.mediawiki.virtualHost.listen option:

services.mediawiki.virtualHost.listen = [
  ip = "127.0.0.1";
  port = 8080;
  ssl = false;
} ];
