+# thunix wiki
+
+Requires a webserver and PHP. The web server needs to be configured to:
+
+- serve wiki.php by default (not index.php)
+- when a requested URL does not correspond to an actual file, pass the requested page to wiki.php?page=
+
+On apache, this is achieved by provided [.htaccess](.htaccess). On nginx, you can do something like:
+
+```
+server {
+	listen 80;
+	root /var/www/wiki_webroot;
+	index wiki.php;
+	server_name _;
+
+	location ~ \.php$ {
+		include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
+		fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.3-fpm.sock;
+	}
+
+	location ~ ^/(.+)$ {
+		try_files $uri $uri/ /wiki.php?page=$1;
+	}
+}
+```
