A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I have a little side business of doing minor repairs on phones and tablets and such.

I was wanting to host a wiki on my network with ifixit guides for the common devices I work on just in case my internet access goes out.

I host a lot already but I'm not sure how to go about getting the data to upload to the wiki?

Has anyone else done a similar thing?

First ones that come to mind are:

https://www.bookstackapp.com/ - sets out your uploaded data like books. Can do books, chapters, pages, etc.

https://www.dokuwiki.org/DokuWiki - more standard wiki, also everything is stored in plain text so it's easy to distribute and use source control on (no database backend)

https://tiddlywiki.com/ - full fledged wiki, bit different layout though since it's all on one page. Clicking an internal link scrolls to that page so it's pretty quick.

All are free and open source, almost certain they all have docker images too. I haven't tried any of them but I've looked into them since I've been thinking about it

I use Doku at work and can attest that it is easy to use and works very well. Even for industrial applications.

I agree. Doku is incredibly easy and extensible. And it doesn't need a database.
