I’m looking for a Wiki Gem for RoR that has:

  • basic Wiki features (obviously),
  • a history feature on all entries,
  • uses MySQL (no SQLite),
  • optionally, instead of using articles, we would like to define some fields to use, in a template…

If I had to cite an example of a website using similar kind of features, it would be CrunchBase. It is a wiki-like system, with predefined fields.

Thank you so much for your help!

    There is no Wiki gem for Rails, per-se. What you do have are a few gems that will facilitate developing a Wiki much like what you’re looking for here.

    For versioning, I would recommend vestal_versions, and for rendering Markdown, I would recommend BlueCloth. Both of these gems have been out for a while, and are quite mature and well tested.

    vestal_versions is also DB agnostic, as it piggybacks on ActiveRecord features, so it will work in whatever RDBMS you throw it at.
