ikiwiki-mass-rebuild(8)

💖 ikiwiki-mass-rebuild — like, the system-manager girlie ✨

okay bestie, so this is a System Manager's Manual situation, section 8, and it's literally called ikiwiki-mass-rebuild. it's giving "I mass-rebuild wikis for a living" and honestly? iconic. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

ikiwiki-mass-rebuild — rebuild, like, every single ikiwiki wiki on a system. no cap. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

ikiwiki-mass-rebuild

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no flags, no args, just pure main-character energy. 👑

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

okay so here's the tea ☕ — ikiwiki-mass-rebuild forces a rebuild of all the wikis on a system when you run it as root, or all of a user's wikis when you run it as a non-root user. fr fr, it's that simple.

but bestie, it can't read your mind 🙈 you have to tell it which wikis to build. so you list the setup files in the file /etc/ikiwiki/wikilist, and the format is literally:

user /path/to/ikiwiki.setup

like, one line per wiki. user, then the path to the setup file. periodt.

it's also possible to let a user list setup files in ~user/.ikiwiki/wikilist in their home directory. 💖 to do that, you list only the user's name, without a setup file. and the format of ~/.ikiwiki/wikilist is the same as /etc/ikiwiki/wikilist. iykyk. 🎀

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• all options are passed on to ikiwiki — that's the whole options section, bestie. every flag you throw at this goes straight through to ikiwiki itself. slay. ✨
