Deploy and Host Dokuwiki on Railway

What is Dokuwiki? Dokuwiki is a PHP-based, file-only wiki engine prized for its simplicity and clean, readable syntax. It stores all pages as plain text files—no database required—making backups and maintenance trivial. With built-in ACLs and a vibrant plugin ecosystem, it’s ideal for both personal note-taking and enterprise knowledge bases.

About Hosting Dokuwiki

  1. Configure relevant environment variables, e.g. DOKUWIKI_URL, DOKUWIKI_TITLE, and optional AUTH_METHOD for LDAP or OAuth integration, and mount a persistent volume at /dokuwiki/data to retain page files and uploaded media.
  2. Once the service is live, navigate to https://.railway.app/install.php to complete the web-based setup wizard. Here you’ll define your admin account, configure ACLs, and finalize your wiki’s basic settings.

Common Use Cases

  • Team Knowledge Base — Centralize technical docs, runbooks, and onboarding guides for engineering teams.
  • Project Documentation — Track requirements, design decisions, and changelogs alongside code.
  • Personal Wiki — Maintain a private notebook or journal with full revision history and easy search.

Dependencies for Dokuwiki Hosting

  • PHP runtime (>=7.4)
  • Persistent file storage (mounted volume or Railway’s “Persistent Storage” plugin)
