Instructions

Download Visual Editor
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualEditor#Download
Install Parsoid
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsoid/Setup
Configure Visual Editor
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualEditor#Basic_configuration_for_MediaWiki-VisualEditor

Configuration Summary

$wgVirtualRestConfig['modules']['parsoid']['domain'] = 'localhost';
wfLoadExtension( 'VisualEditor' );
$wgDefaultUserOptions['visualeditor-enable'] = 1;
$wgHiddenPrefs[] = 'visualeditor-enable';

Issues

Possible errors at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgVirtualRestConfig:
- I believe that the trailing slashes in the URLs is an error, but I need confirmation.
- "domain" does not actually appear to be optional. It is not getting set to the domain from the URL when it is not specified.
- When it says, "These are the default values when Parsoid is registered as a REST service, used when some keys are not defined.", it implies that this value is set somewhere when Parsoid is installed, but I don't believe that is the case.
Adding a wiki to a wiki farm requires editing /etc/mediawiki/parsoid/config.yaml.
