As a contributor to Meza, and developer of QualityBox, I'm closely following the efforts in the MediaWiki community around easier/automated deployments of MediaWiki. Actually, it's a goal of the MWStakeholders Group. And, it's a crucial aspect of the whole Wikimedia Technology Department Goals. Here is a list of some of the efforts and projects within and outside the WMF for automating deployments of MediaWiki
- Official Docker repository of MediaWiki
- Phabricator workboard for MediaWiki-Containers
- Addshore's GitHub repo for using Docker and MediaWiki (Developers) See also: MediaWiki API library Not exactly DevOps, but good to know/use/contribute. Addwiki repos are by Addshore, Jeroen DeDauw and Sam Wilson
- Wikimedia Git repo of the Docker official image for MediaWiki (forked from https://github.com/benhutchins/docker-mediawiki)
- Docker Library Docs
- Docker Library Docs for MediaWiki
- MediaWiki Node Services Run several MediaWiki nodejs services (RESTBase, Parsoid) in a single docker container. Useful for small / low-memory installs. By WMF's d00rman (Marko Obrovac - Croatia) and gwicke (Gabriel Wicke - Menlo Park)
- Wikimedia base docker images for production by lavagetto (Giuseppe Lavagetto - Italy)
- Set up BlueSpice MediaWiki Enterprise Distribution by lexsulzer (Lex Sulzer at Dataspects - Zurich, Switzerland)
- Dataspects' Easy System Cloning
- Meza Building Blocks A series of roles to add to or complement Meza by Lex Sulzer
With any automation tooling and deployment, you will inevitably need to refer to the long list of MediaWiki Configuration settings.
