Need a perl based wiki... with a catch.

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I decided I need a personal wiki to keep my life organized. The key feature I need is that I need the wiki to run on my laptop when I'm disconnected and on a server at all times. There should be a simple synchronization mechanism between the two. I though maybe Kwiki + svn/svk should to the trick, but I haven't worked out any of the details. Any suggestions?

I'd recommend you go check out the info at Personal Wiki and Desktop Wiki. One that looks particularly powerful to me is MoinMoin, Desktop Edition.	[reply]

There's an article on perl.com giving an overview of the Catalyst framework. The example that they use as a teaching device is the creation of a wiki that uses SQLite as the data store. Since svn handles binary files gracefully, you should be able to use this without too much difficulty. It won't scale well, though (more users than just you), but it would be a start. thor `Feel the white light, the light within Be your own disciple, fan the sparks of will For all of us waiting, your kingdom will come`	[reply]
