Rsync repository

A cron job synchronizes the EmacsWiki setup to a machine that zeus is running. You can use rsync to get copies from there. Note that the setup does not contain files that can be read as-is. You will need a webserver and Oddmuse to read them!

List what’s available:

rsync theshire.emacs.cl::

The actual site is less useful when Emacs Wiki dropped off the net but it’s still available while the site is up:

rsync emacswiki.org::

Here’s how to get or update a copy into the emacswiki directory, for example:

mkdir emacswiki
cd emacswiki
rsync -avz --no-perms theshire.emacs.cl::emacswiki .

What will you get?

You will get the files you need to run your own copy of the wiki. Actually getting the wiki to run is going to require some Oddmuse and webserver experience.

emacswiki is the data directory. This is what you’d store in a database, if you wanted to.

emacswiki.org is the document root of the web site.

As for what to expect:

kensanata@theshire:~$ du -sh emacswiki emacswiki.org
1.4G	emacswiki
57M	emacswiki.org
