'''Idea about creating wiki instances by a script'''

Instead of HelpOnInstalling/WikiInstanceCreation, we can have a simple script that creates a wiki instance for you.

Here is the on line help for this script:

{{attachment:mkwiki.py}}

Here at [[http://koumbit.org/|Koumbit]], we've built a script that does this for wikifarms:

https://lethe.koumbit.net/svn/koumbit/trunk/bin/wiki_farm_procreate.py

It now supports commandline arguments and is very flexible. The only thing it doesn't do is remove wikis (and work in non-farm setups). -- TheAnarcat <<DateTime(2006-11-13T22:16:35Z)>>

How it compares with ScriptMarket/WikiCreationScript? 

 My script completely automates the instance create, including the apache and moinmoin configuration which are correctly parsed. It now has a set of commandline flags that enables it to do what most of the original request here was, but mostly for farming purposes. It would need to be adapted to work for non-farming environments. -- TheAnarcat <<DateTime(2006-11-13T21:07:55Z)>>
