BookStack - knowledge management application
-
-
Hi
In my non-humble opinion, this is the best wiki out there. It produces beautiful documents.
It is a pure joy to use and combines the best experience from all other libre open source wiki's I have used.
Mind you, I also like Mediawiki and Dokuwiki - but they do not come close to BookStack.It is light on resources and requires minimal configuration, an SQLITE db is supported. It would not be difficult to "port" to Cloudron.
Therefore I would like to propose the inclusion of BookStack. Please consider it!

This would be great -- been looking for a personal knowledge management tool and team wiki, and this looks like it could do both.
-
THIS!!!!!!
-
I would love to see Bookstack on Cloudron. Instant install.
-
I think this would be a great addition for the Cloudron platform. As an alternative, which we evaluated, I proposed Wiki.js in another thread.
-
Just stumbled onto BookStack and it looks like it'd be a great wiki. I'd much prefer this over dealing with Dokuwiki.
-
Following up with a couple of links:
- BookStack supports ldap
- There's a community-built docker image
-
I've built a package where everything that I've checked out works as intended, except ldap. Not sure what I'm doing wrong or where the problem is, but if you watch their issue tracker, apparently some other people are having ldap issues as well. Either way, maybe someone can check it out and even find a solution for this, to debug you have to remove the comments in /app/data/.env - enable debug and ldap by removing the #:
https://git.cloudron.io/msbt/bookstack-app
Cheers

@nebulon or @girish is there someone who is best able to help out with specific issues like this (the ldap functionality of a package, e.g.)?
-
Great stuff
I will give this a shot later today
-
OK, I have the LDAP working but there is a bug where the port number is not parsed correctly. Still debugging.
@msbt I forked the project to https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/bookstack-app and given you permissions. Thanks!
-
ah that's why, thanks @girish! I haven't opened a ticket yet, maybe they need to fix something on their side. I'll do some more finetuning on the app when I get the chance, we could also use redis and some other features which aren't implemented yet.

@msbt Sorry, I forgot to leave a note yesterday but the issue is not in their code as such. The env var LDAP_SERVER gets overidden from the environment over the
.env
file (this is a variable that Cloudron injects...)
