Package: ikiwiki Version: stable Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: eingousef+debb...@rhizogen.es.eu.org
Dear Maintainer, Currently there are two ways to setup a wiki : 1. the classic setup ( https://ikiwiki.info/setup/ ) is user-friendly but no so great if you want to perform the wiki setup in an automated, idempotent way, and doesn't allow to install a wiki on an already existing git repository, 2. the setup by hand ( https://ikiwiki.info/setup/byhand/ ) which is easier to turn into an idempotent task and allows to install a wiki on an already existing git repo. The second way, however, is incomplete : the task to add an user (in particular, the admin of the wiki), which is present in the classic setup, is absent. I presume one could register a user automatically with an HTTP request, but this requires the web server to be set up and the web frontend of the wiki to actually be accessible before the user is created. Would it be possible to have a standalone script to register a user, similarly to what the classic setup script does ? The script would take the user name and the user e-mail address as arguments, possibly the password as well (or prompt for it if you think it's more secure), and create/modify the .ikiwiki/userdb file accordingly.
