2025-04-04 20:25:50I'm making this tutorial for myself, as I plan to write many wiki pages describing DVM kinds, as a resource for DVMDash.
Wiki pages on Nostr are written using AsciiDoc. If you don't know ascii doc, get an LLM (like https://duck.ai) to help you format into the right syntax.
Here's the test wiki page I'm going to write:
``` = Simple AsciiDoc Demo
This is a simple demonstration of AsciiDoc syntax for testing purposes.
== Features
AsciiDoc offers many formatting options that are easy to use.
- Easy to learn
- Supports rich text formatting
- Can include code snippets
- Works great for documentation
[source,json]
{ "name": "Test", "version": "1.0", "active": true }
```
We're going to use nak to publish it
First, install
nak
if you haven't alreadygo install github.com/fiatjaf/nak@latest
Note: if you don't use Go a lot, you may need to first install it and then add it to your path so the
nak
command is recognized by the terminal```
this is how to add it to your path on mac if using zsh
echo 'export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin' >> ~/.zshrc ```
And here's how to sign and publish this event with nak.
First, if you want to use your own nostr sec key, you can set the env variable to it and nak will use that if no secret key is specified
```
replace with your full secret key
export NOSTR_SECRET_KEY="nsec1zcdn..." ```
Now to sign and publish the event:
Note: inner double quotes need to be escaped with a
\
before them in order to keep the formatting correct, because we're doing this in the terminalnak event -k 30818 -d "dvm-wiki-page-test" -t 'title=dvm wiki page test' -c "= Simple AsciiDoc Demo\n\nThis is a simple demonstration of AsciiDoc syntax for testing purposes. \n\n== Features\n\nAsciiDoc offers many formatting options that are easy to use. \n\n* Easy to learn \n* Supports rich text formatting \n* Can include code snippets \n* Works great for documentation \n\n[source,json] \n---- \n{ \"name\": \"Test\", \"version\": \"1.0\", \"active\": true } \n----" wss://relay.primal.net wss://relay.damus.io wss://relay.wikifreedia.xyz
You've now published your first wiki page! If done correctly, it will show up on wikistr.com, like mine did here: https://wikistr.com/dvm-wiki-page-test*da18e9860040f3bf493876fc16b1a912ae5a6f6fa8d5159c3de2b8233a0d9851
