We have a small Confluence Wiki that is approaching
its user limit. We have the option of either purchasing additional licenses or moving to
XWiki. One huge advantage of XWiki is that we could vastly increase the number of users
with access to our Wiki even if we did not allow those users write access.
In order to make such a conversion feasible, we would first need to import our existing
Confluence Wiki. In searching around I have found references to some Google Summer of Code
proposals <
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/ImportExportfromanyo…gt;.
I have been less successful in locating implementations.
Only mediawiki import has been done during this GSOC.
Is there a (relatively) straightforward way to import my Confluence content into an
XWiki? How might I go about doing this?
There is no real Confluence importer. So it depends of the number of
pages you have, if there is not too much pages you can use the built
in document content converter to convert them one by one in you XWiki
instance.
If there is more then you might want to write a script which parse
whatever you can get from confluence in input and use the rendering
framework to convert Confluence syntax into XWiki syntax. You can find
several examples using various technologies to do that for other wikis
(TWiki, Dokuwiki, ...) but unfortunately not for Confluence (yet ;)).
Note that a Java based universal importer/exporter is in progress on
https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/wiki-stream (with only a mediawiki
importer module right now).
Thanks
