sync sites

[luc abom]

I am using phpwiki on my laptop, on top of the site.
so, several times a day, im disconected.

Are there any means to sync the copies ?
i thought about cvs, if the files were exported  as text files (pikipiki stores its file as plain text). any other ideas ?

Do you mean you are running two seperate copies of PhpWiki, one on your laptop and
another on a server? And you wish to keep them synchronized?

This would be an interesting challenge...

welll Pikipiki use plain text, one file per page for storing, so i can use cvs.

as most of the job i done when rendering, no big deal

Hello again lucabom,

Well, PhpWiki does use plain text but the files are in a DBM or RDBMS... so there would have to be a way of dumping the pages out as plain text. I started a script to do this some time back, but I abandoned it... I didn't have the time and the code was in flux.

We now have a templating system for themes, and it might be easier to write a script... we have a lot of new features in the works but I think the ability to make "snapshots" of the Wiki would be very useful.

Thanks for your interest!

all we nean is to "simulate an input/output, like when we edit the page.

when i press "edit page", a format is generated, that can be redirected under a file, with the page name

reversely, these can be rea, like when u do the "initial setup", where u processes files.

With this colection of files, , it is easy to backup, rcs, cvs...
