configuration examples

small 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 = {
    # some extensions are included and can enabled by passing null
    VisualEditor = null;

    # https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TemplateStyles
    TemplateStyles = pkgs.fetchzip {
      url = "https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/extensions/TemplateStyles-REL1_40-c639c7a.tar.gz";
      hash = "sha256-YBL0Cs4hDSNnoutNJSJBdLsv9zFWVkzo7m5osph8QiY=";
    };
  };
};

web server

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;
  }
];
