Install and run

Sausagewiki aims to be simple to get up and running. It is distributed as a single independent executable for Linux.

  1. Download the latest build of sausagewiki.xz from https://github.com/maghoff/sausagewiki/releases/latest
  2. Decompress: xz -d sausagewiki.xz
  3. Set execution permission: chmod a+x sausagewiki
  4. Run: ./sausagewiki wiki.db

For other platforms you will presently have to build it yourself. Sausagewiki is built like other Rust projects, with cargo build.
