== Introduction ==
-'''Currently undergoing revisions to upgrade from mediawiki version 1.23 to 1.27.
-Should be done on 5/30/2016'''
-
'''tldr''': Automated setup on gnu/linux after you set options in [[#Dependent Variables and Functions]], except email. Any code which is not ready to be run has bold text saying so immediately before it.
''' Goals / Why use this guide? '''
* Self hosting, single Linux system with Bash shell
* Root shell is assumed throughout
-* Code blocks are [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idempotent idempotent] unless stated otherwise
+* Code blocks are [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idempotent idempotent]
'''Version Support'''
Very minor adjustments needed for other distros. Help expand this list.
-* Mediawiki 1.23
-* Fedora 20 (tested)
-* Ubuntu 14.04 (tested)
-* Debian 7
+* Mediawiki 1.27
+* Debian 8 (tested)
+
+Pre 5/2016 revisions ran Mediawiki 1.23, tested on Fedora 20 and Ubuntu 14.04.

+Here we will have a daily cronjob where a backup host sshs to the mediawiki host, makes a backup then copies it back. Copy ~/mw_vars to the backup host at /root/mw_vars.

If you are like most people and don't use the old-school mail spool, setup the backup system to send mail externally. Some ways to do that are on this [http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/36982/can-i-set-up-system-mail-to-use-an-external-smtp-server stackoverflow answer]. Then make local mail to your user get forwarded to an address you will read:
# Change REPLACE_ME in the code below (as in the backup section so you get the right variables),
# Execute the code on the backup machine.
-<source lang="bash">
+<source lang="bash" type="example">
+#!/bin/bash

Unfortunately, Piwik does not document how to do a fully automated install, and although it certainly seems possible, my first glance at the config file after doing manual steps showed a lot of noise, so we are sticking with the manual steps for now.
-In a browser, navigate to your_domain/analytics. Follow these steps [http://piwik.org/docs/installation/#the-5-minute-piwik-installation the-5-minute-piwik-installation], using the database password from the previous section.
+In a browser, navigate to your_domain/analytics. Follow these steps [http://piwik.org/docs/installation/#the-5-minute-piwik-installation the-5-minute-piwik-installation]. Use the user/db/pass from the previous section.
We are going to use an extension to handle the javaScript tracking tag part.
<source lang="bash">
git clone https://github.com/DaSchTour/piwik-mediawiki-extension.git $mw/extensions/Piwik
-mw-ext -g Piwik
+mw-ext Piwik
teeu $mwc <<EOF
\$wgPiwikURL = '$mwdomain/analytics/';
\$wgPiwikIDSite = '1';
You will need to adjust the previous $wgPiwikIDSite variable. The correct value can be found in the Piwik javaScript tracking tag code, in the line that looks like <code>_paq.push(['setSiteId', 2]);</code>
