Interesting Take On A Wiki - Testing Now

That's pretty nice.

So I used the script provided in the Installation documentation for evaluation and then configured Nginx proxy to handle proxy and SSL. Problem was that the login page while worked perfectly when accessing the server on the local network had display issues when access via the FQDN.
If anyone uses the script on Ubuntu, after install, you'll need to go to /var/www/bookstack/.env file and make sure to enter your domain name as an app variable including protocol (https).
APP_URL=https://my.domain.comNow that I can access the site via the domain, I need to figure out how to fix the mixed content warning in the browser.

By the way, if someone much smarter than I (uh-hum @scottalanmiller or @JaredBusch or others) is willing to take the time to figure out how to install this on Fedora, I'm willing to give your instructions a try

It has very few requirements, looks like it is roughly the same as a really simple WordPress install...

Yeah, the composer install/setup is what's got me stumped. Never used that before or at least not in my short use of Linux OSs.

Maybe I missed that part, where is the composer install?

You can see it on the sample install script but doesn't mention in the manual install.

Can’t be any different compare to how Snipe-IT uses it.

Might not be needed then, or might be specifically needed for old Ubuntu LTS.

I'm testing this install next...just for fun.

Stick to Fedora, half that install is just getting CentOS to the point where it will work like Fedora. Just start with Fedora and integrated management of those pieces. That totally defeats the point of CentOS to use it in that way.

When I saw the need of epel and IUS repo automatically tells me to use Fedora instead.

Those instructions are also using Nginx as the web server. I typically default to using Apache in my guides.

Exactly. I'm okay with the EPEL for minor packages that are not includes, like fail2ban, but not as a means to getting different package versions. So generally EPEL I'm cool with, but IUS I am not. Not that it is bad, it just means you intended to use Fedora and made a mistake.

Same here, NGinx for RP, Apache for PHP app server.

Also, I will be making a guide in a bit as this looks like an interesting project to test.

I do like how wiki.js can use a git repo for version control and backup. Is there a way to do the same with bookstack?

It mentioned GIT in the reqs, so I am guessing yes.
DokuWiki you can easily as well.

It uses git to clone the install. so no. not backing to git.
