-e MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD=1 \
-v /var/mediawiki/mysql:/var/lib/mysql \
-d mysql:5.7
Start MediaWiki container.
docker run --name mediawiki_wiki \
--link mediawiki_mysql:mediawiki_mysql \
-p 8080:8080 \
-e MEDIAWIKI_SERVER=http://localhost:8080 \
-e MEDIAWIKI_SITENAME=MyWiki \
-e MEDIAWIKI_LANGUAGE_CODE=en \

Create a new database with the install script. Insert username and password for your admin account.
docker exec -it mediawiki_wiki /script/install.sh <username> <password>
If you are using an existing database run the update script instead.
docker exec -it mediawiki_wiki /script/update.sh
Copy the secret key that the install script dumps or find the variable $wgSecretKey
in your previous LocalSettings.php
file and put it into an environment variable.
-e MEDIAWIKI_SECRET_KEY=secretkey
If you are using an existing database find the variable $wgDBTableOptions
in your previous LocalSettings.php
file and put it into an environment variable.
-e MEDIAWIKI_DB_TABLE_OPTIONS=ENGINE=InnoDB, DEFAULT CHARSET=binary
You should be able to browse your wiki at http://localhost:8080.
See Docker Compose example.
Start MediaWiki container.
docker run --name=mediawiki_wiki \
-p 8080:8080 \
-e MEDIAWIKI_SERVER=http://localhost:8080 \
-e MEDIAWIKI_SITENAME=MyWiki \
-e MEDIAWIKI_LANGUAGE_CODE=en \
-e MEDIAWIKI_DB_TYPE=sqlite \
-e MEDIAWIKI_DB_NAME=wikidb \
-e MEDIAWIKI_ENABLE_UPLOADS=1 \
-v /var/mediawiki/images:/images \
-v /var/mediawiki/data:/data \
-d credija/mediawiki
Create a new database with the install script. Insert username and password for your admin account.
docker exec -it mediawiki_wiki /script/install.sh <username> <password>
If you are using an existing database run the update script instead.
docker exec -it mediawiki_wiki /script/update.sh
Copy the secret key that the install script dumps or find the variable $wgSecretKey
in your previous LocalSettings.php
file and put it into an environment variable.
-e MEDIAWIKI_SECRET_KEY=secretkey
You should be able to browse your wiki at http://localhost:8080.
Set the mandatory environment variables:
- Set
MEDIAWIKI_SERVER
to your wiki's primary domain, prefixed with the primary protocol. - Set
MEDIAWIKI_SITENAME
to your wiki's name. - Set
MEDIAWIKI_LANGUAGE_CODE
to a language code of this list.
-e MEDIAWIKI_SERVER=http://wiki.example.com \
-e MEDIAWIKI_SITENAME=MyWiki \
-e MEDIAWIKI_LANGUAGE_CODE=en
To enable file uploads set the environment variable MEDIAWIKI_ENABLE_UPLOADS
to 1.
-e MEDIAWIKI_ENABLE_UPLOADS=1
Mount a writable volume to the images folder.
-v /var/mediawiki/images:/images
Which file extensions are allowed for uploading can be controlled with the environment variable MEDIAWIKI_FILE_EXTENSIONS
.
-e MEDIAWIKI_FILE_EXTENSIONS=png,gif,jpg,jpeg,webp,pdf
The maximum size for file uploads can be controlled with the environment variable MEDIAWIKI_MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE
.
-e MEDIAWIKI_MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE=100M
SMTP E-Mail can be enabled by setting MEDIAWIKI_SMTP
to 1. TLS auth will be used by default.
-e MEDIAWIKI_SMTP=1
-e MEDIAWIKI_SMTP_HOST=smtp.example.com
-e MEDIAWIKI_SMTP_IDHOST=example.com
-e MEDIAWIKI_SMTP_PORT=587
-e MEDIAWIKI_SMTP_AUTH=1
-e MEDIAWIKI_SMTP_USERNAME=mail@example.com
-e MEDIAWIKI_SMTP_PASSWORD=secret
Using a self-signed certificate will not work because of failing peer verification.
If you know the security implications you can disable peer verification by setting MEDIAWIKI_SMTP_SSL_VERIFY_PEER
to 0.
You can setup your own logo by mounting a PNG file.
-v ./var/mediawiki/logo.png:/var/www/mediawiki/resources/assets/wiki.png:ro
You can change the default skin by setting the environment variable MEDIAWIKI_DEFAULT_SKIN
.
-e MEDIAWIKI_DEFAULT_SKIN=vector
The default skins are packaged with the container:
- vector
You can add more skins by mounting them.
-v ./var/mediawiki/skins/Vector:/var/www/mediawiki/skins/Vector:ro
HTTPS is not longer supported by the container itself. Its recommended to use a proxy container for HTTPS setups.
Make sure that you set the MEDIAWIKI_SERVER
environment variable to the outside URL of your wiki and to apply the https
prefix.
-e MEDIAWIKI_SERVER=https://localhost
You can add more extensions by mounting them.
-v ./var/mediawiki/extensions/MyOtherExtension:/var/www/mediawiki/extensions/MyOtherExtension:ro
You can add own PHP configuration values by mounting an additional configuration file that is loaded at the end of the generic configuration file.
-v /var/mediawiki/ExtraLocalSettings.php:/var/www/mediawiki/ExtraLocalSettings.php:ro
A good starting point is to copy the file that's inside the container. You can display its content with the following command.
docker exec -it mediawiki_wiki cat /var/www/mediawiki/ExtraLocalSettings.php
Beside the docker like configuration with environment variables you still can use your own full LocalSettings.php
file.
However this will make all environment variables unusable except MEDIAWIKI_HTTPS
and MEDIAWIKI_SMTP_SSL_VERIFY_PEER
.
-v /var/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php:/var/www/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php:ro
The container has some performance related configuration options. If you have more advanced needs you can override the configuration inside the container by mounting configuration files.
The number of PHP-FPM worker processes can be configured with the environment variables PHPFPM_WORKERS_START
, PHPFPM_WORKERS_MIN
and PHPFPM_WORKERS_MAX
.
-e PHPFPM_WORKERS_START=10
-e PHPFPM_WORKERS_MIN=10
-e PHPFPM_WORKERS_MAX=20
Default for start and min is 1
. Default for max is 20
, so up to 20
worker processes will be spawned dynamically when needed.
For a more advanced configuration of PHP-FPM mount a configuration file to /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf
.
-v /var/mediawiki/php-fpm.conf:/usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf:ro
The number of Parsoid worker processes can be configured with the environment variable PARSOID_WORKERS
.
-e PARSOID_WORKERS=10
Default is 1
. Please note that the number of Parsoid workers is not managed dynamically. Make sure that you spawn enough workers for your requirements.
For a more advanced configuration of Parsoid mount a configuration file to /usr/lib/parsoid/src/config.yaml
.
-v /var/mediawiki/config.yaml:/usr/lib/parsoid/src/config.yaml:ro
Below is a list of all environment variables supported by the container.
When using an own LocalSettings.php
file according to the section "Configuration file" most variables be unusable.
To modify configuration values that are not listed below read the section "Additional configuration".
More information about the configuration values can be found at MediaWiki's documentation.
