Thread:Extension talk:VisualEditor/Digital Ocean Droplet: Ubuntu 14.04 x64 with MediaWiki 1.24.0

I thought I'd put this here, because the instructions were not extremely clear in my case. Though they were thorough enough to troubleshoot.

Install Visual Editor
Note the -b REL1_24 cd extensions git clone -b REL1_24 https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-VisualEditor.git cd VisualEditor ***CHANGE THE NAME OF THE FOLDER*** git submodule update —init

Modify require_once "$IP/extensions/VisualEditor/VisualEditor.php"; $wgDefaultUserOptions['visualeditor-enable'] = 1; $wgHiddenPrefs[] = 'visualeditor-enable'; $wgVisualEditorParsoidURL = 'http://localhost:8142'; $wgVisualEditorParsoidPrefix = 'localhost'; Check that VisualEditor is not throwing the error

Install Parsoid
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 5C927F7C gpg -a --export 5C927F7C | sudo apt-key add - Open  and add the follow at the end: deb [arch=amd64] http://parsoid.wmflabs.org:8080/deb wmf-production main Run: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install parsoid

Modify // parsoidConfig.setInterwiki( 'localhost', 'http://localhost/wiki/api.php', 'http://localhost/' ); parsoidConfig.setInterwiki( 'localhost', 'http://yoursite.com/api.php' );

Modify // parsoidConfig.setInterwiki( 'localhost', 'http://localhost/w/api.php' ); parsoidConfig.setInterwiki( 'localhost', 'http://localhost/api.php' );
