Km Wiki

KmWiki is also a pywiki implementation. http://www.voght.com/cgi-bin/pywiki?KmWiki [redirects to: http://kmwiki.wikispaces.com/]

KmWiki is yet another WikiWikiClone.

Initially designed for "capturing organizational memory", after a while becomes a "memory" of just our development department.

In short, this is a Wiki + Knowledge Base Engine + few additional tricks:

Wiki

• Original look and feel.
• Most of the original text formatting rules.

Knowledge Base Engine

• Any Wiki page could be indexed by some knowledge assertion (expressed as ConceptualGraph?). Assertion could be stored in the knowledge base.
• Wiki page could contain embedded queries to the knowledge base. The result of a query could be a links to other pages or just a static text.
• Maintained an Ontology - hierarchy of domain concept types and relations.

Additional tricks

• In-place drawings editor: the viewer and the editor applets. Simple figures and simple UML-like diagrams.
• C++ code is recognized and displayed with "colored syntax".

Most of the interesting stuff are on our intranet KmWiki server - we are trying to put all together the information about our development environment (C++ class libraries and frameworks).

Here are some details:

• Server was implemented as a Java servlet.
• All parsers where written with aid of Sun JavaCC compiler.
• Notio Package was used as a kernel for Knowledge Base Engine.
• Drawings Editor was implemented on a top of Java HotDraw framework.
• Tested on Linux+Apache, WindowsNT+Apache, WindowsNT+IIS (ASP+JScript).
