Elements for building a full-featured wiki engine:

  • Page templating system like [http://smarty.php.net/ Smarty]. Possible options include [http://www.alcyone.com/pyos/empy/ EmPy] or others listed in the [http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/moinmoin/WebProgramming#head-9d0636d6da8e88f8f09de1454c5961b44183b04d templating section] of the WebProgramming page. Which one would you recommend?

  • Cache HTML versions of pages for faster loading. Ideally the page templating tool would handle caching.

  • User Authentication. A user authentication system perhaps integrated with MySQL or possibly even LDAP. Allow for different user groups and permission levels. Any recommendations?

  • Database Integration. Can store data in mysql, postgresql, etc. or work without a database.

  • Easy Install. Works completely in Python, and installs in one folder location. Doesn't necessarily require a database or mod_python. Doesn't require root privileges for install.

  • Small but Scalable. Doesn't require a huge server to run.

See the [http://colorstudy.com/docs/shootout.html Web Framework shootout] where different Python WebProgramming frameworks are used to implement a bare bones wiki.
