@quiescent/wiki

Astro-focused wiki toolkit over a directory of markdown notes: Obsidian-style [[wikilinks]], hierarchical tags, client-side search, and a force-directed note graph. Everything is computed at build time and baked into the bundle, so the same code runs on Cloudflare Workers (no runtime filesystem) and Node.

Pairs with @quiescent/server + @quiescent/editor for in-browser editing that persists through a git forge; see the repo root README and docs/.

Wiring

// astro.config.mjs
import { quiescentWiki } from "@quiescent/wiki";

export default defineConfig({
  integrations: [quiescentWiki({ dir: fileURLToPath(new URL("../wiki", import.meta.url)) })],
});

The integration:

• registers a remark plugin rewriting [[Target]] / [[Target|alias]] into links (.wikilink, dead links become .wikilink--dead spans and warn);
• exposes virtual:quiescent-wiki with build-time data:

/// <reference types="@quiescent/wiki/virtual" />  // in env.d.ts
import { searchIndex, graph, tags, notes } from "virtual:quiescent-wiki";

| Export | What it is | | --- | --- | | searchIndex | Serialized MiniSearch index (title/tags/headings/body) | | graph | { nodes, edges } — notes + tags, wikilink + membership edges | | tags | Record<tag, {url, title}[]> for tag pages | | notes | Note metadata (frontmatter, headings, excerpt — no body text) |

Serve searchIndex/graph from auth-guarded API routes (Cache-Control: private) and consume them with the client module:

import { fetchWikiSearch, mountWikiGraph } from "@quiescent/wiki/client";

const search = await fetchWikiSearch("/api/wiki/search-index");
search.search("hydroponics");

mountWikiGraph(document.getElementById("graph")!, graph, { showTags: true });

Copyable route + page examples live in code/web/src/pages/wiki-demo/ and code/web/src/pages/api/wiki/ in this repo.

Node API

All build-time (uses node:fs) — never import from client islands:

• scanNotes({ dir }) → parsed notes (frontmatter, tags, headings, excerpt, stripped text, wikilink targets)
• buildWikiIndex({ dir }) → name/title → URL index with ambiguity tracking
• resolveWikiTarget(target, index) → URL or null (dead/ambiguous)
• buildWikiGraph(index, { includeTags }), buildTagIndex(index)
• buildSearchIndex(index) → serialized MiniSearch (SEARCH_OPTIONS shared with the client loader)
• validateWikiLinks({ dir }) / reportWikiLinks({ dir }) — dead-link CI gate:

// scripts/check-wiki-links.ts
import { reportWikiLinks } from "@quiescent/wiki";
process.exit(reportWikiLinks({ dir: new URL("../../wiki", import.meta.url).pathname }));

Note URLs are the wiki-relative path with each segment github-sluggered — exactly the id Astro's glob content loader computes, so wikilink hrefs line up with getCollection-driven routes.

Content conventions

See docs/conventions.md in the repo root: frontmatter (title, type, status, tags, created, updated), hierarchical namespace/value tags, one note per file, sources as sources/<date>-<slug>/source.md resolving by frontmatter title.
