Introduction
This page discusses some issues related to wiki images.
How-To Upload Wiki Images
This procedure assumes that you have CLI access to the wiki host box. Other procedures may be documented in the future.
01) Start with a set of 1 to 50 image files. Note: You'll be able to upload the full set easily in one go.
02) Rename the image files:
- Make every filename unique.
- In most cases, though this is optional, make the filenames lower-case.
- Don't use spaces or most other punctuation characters in the filenames. Limit period to the filename extension. Dash, underscore, and plus are O.K.
03) Log-in as "root" or do "sudo bash".
04) Create a new empty temporary directory. Important: Make sure that it is empty.
05) Copy the image files into the temporary directory. Keep the directory flat; i.e., no subdirectories.
06) Execute the following but replace "/somedir/" with a directory path for the temporary directory.
cd /var/www/wiki.minetest.org/maintenance/ php importImages.php /somedir/
There you go. The temporary directory may now be removed.
