All this talk about wikis [1] got me thinking: "Can we create a wiki in Erlang?"
Well, I took CouchDB, ErlyWeb and decided to see, if it's doable. It is. You can check out the code at <http://code.google.com/p/sew-wiki/> It's a proof of concept more than anything else, but it may be fun to play with and to build upon. Description/installation/requirements/limitations/troubleshooting are all in the README file It's not that easy to install (since, besides Yaws it requires CouchDB and Perl. And a recent Erlang/OTP version as well), but once it's up and running - it's nice and fast (can't say for sure, but my internal feeling is that it would be slightly slower on a LAMP stack) There's nothing to see, really, as all it does is add/edit/delete pages, but I like it :) Unfortunately, I'll have less and less free time in the weeks ahead, so don't expect me to add anything in the TODO file in the immediate future, but I do hope to expand it's features further There's currently no demo site because it's not stable enough (see TODOs and comments to see why) and there's no security built in. But still... Oh, by the way. At it's present state sew is, like noe [2], a nice starting point for those willing to start with ErlyWeb. Now only if I could get noe and sew to planeterlang... It timeouts on me...
