Gollum is a wiki engine that is built on top of Git. It is designed to be simple and intuitive for users who are already familiar with Git. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Gollum on Arch Linux.
Before you can install Gollum, you need to make sure that your system has the required dependencies. Open a terminal window and enter the following command:
sudo pacman -S ruby git zlib libicu
This will install the required dependencies for Gollum.
Once you have installed the dependencies, you can proceed with installing Gollum. You can install Gollum using the following command:
sudo gem install gollum
This will install the latest version of Gollum and all its dependencies.
After installing Gollum, you can create a new wiki by running the following command:
gollum /path/to/wiki
Replace "/path/to/wiki" with the location where you want to store your wiki. If the directory does not exist, Gollum will create it for you.
Once you have created your wiki, you can start using Gollum by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:4567/. This will display your wiki in your web browser.
That's it! You have successfully installed Gollum on Arch Linux and created a new wiki. Now you can start adding pages and editing content on your wiki. Enjoy!
