Mantis - Integrate Wiki

Question

I am using Mantis (PHP and MysQL) as a bug tracking tool and I would like to extend it in order to document requirements and technical specifications. Ideally, I should be able to link a defect with a requirement.

Is there a way to integrate a Wiki tool (preferably PHP and MySQL based) into Mantis?

EDITED:

Instructions how to integrate DocuWiki can be found in this article "Integrating DokuWiki with Mantis"
Instructions how to integrate MediaWiki can be found here (Thanks Ian)
Instructions how to integrate TWiki can be found here and here

Suggested alternatives to Mantis: (open source bugtrackers with integrated Wiki)

TikiWiki (Php)
PhpWiki (Php)
Trac (Python) (Thanks ax)
Redmine (Ruby on Rails) (Thanks Paul)

DokuWiki will be a good choice.

I cannot see the content on this page - it looks like I need an account with mantisbt.org website – Adrian Oct 12 '09 at 11:46

I was able to access the document "Integrating DokuWiki with Mantis" in PDF format http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/file_download.php?file_id=1032&type=bug It is a good starting point but the information appears old (last update May 2007). Do you know anything more up to date? I am also a bit concerned about changing the Mantis code but I am willing to try. – Adrian Oct 12 '09 at 12:50
Oddly enough, the accepted link above now points to the same page and no login is required. – icedwater Jun 25 '13 at 02:52

instead of trying to integrate 2 different, uncoordinated software packages, i would suggest to use an issue tracker with integrated wiki (and VCS interface, reporting, timeline, roadmap, etc.): Trac. you can import your Mantis bugs into Trac with mantis2trac.

no, the 'do one thing' mantra works well for OSS projects, as a result they have to provide good interoperability hooks, so tying them together means you can have the best of both worlds. This is a strong feature of much OSS software. Not to say that Trac isn't good mind. – gbjbaanb Mar 05 '10 at 12:52
I am trying to tie `dokuwiki` into a bug tracker with SVN support, so far `trac` isn't it because I don't have access to the server on which the SVN repo is. – icedwater Jun 25 '13 at 02:53

The mediawiki instructions also work for Mindtouch.
