The Idea

CoCalc (my fork) is great service for scientific realtime collaboration (jupyter notebooks, latex editing, PDF articles sharing). But it is not suitable for creating Team Portal/Dashboard, and Team Knowledge Base. Lot of loosely connected projects, impossibility of consistenly linked/renamed pages, … So better to have MediaWiki (MediaWiki4IntraNet) + CoCalc with authorization on the MediaWiki. Additionaly to Content Features, this binging get interesting possibilities to Team Authorization. For example, «extensions/LdapAuthentication» allows MediaWiki authenticate by LDAP, but is is not possible without radical patching, add LDAP Auth to Cocalc.

So, how to do it.

For MediaWiki4IntraNet, install REL1_26 branch of our fork https://github.com/mediawiki4intranet/mediawiki-extensions-OAuth (branch REL1_26 unusable and need patch).

Add this to LocalSettings:

$wgGroupPermissions['user']['mwoauthproposeconsumer'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['mwoauthupdateownconsumer'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['mwoauthmanageconsumer'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['mwoauthsuppress'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['mwoauthviewsuppressed'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['mwoauthviewprivate'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['mwoauthmanagemygrants'] = true;
