Multiple projects with OpenGrok

Question

I was just wondering what is the best way to setup and configure OpenGrok for multiple projects, e.g. via a single page and a dropdown list.

While the documentation for a single project is pretty straight-forward, the instructions for setting up a multi-project environment isn't very clear to me.

Answer 1

Each directory under SRC_ROOT directory is one project. So create your directory structure should look something like this:

/opengrok
|-- bin
|-- data
`-- source
   |--project1
   |--project2
   `--project3

Then update your index, in this step the configuration.xml file will be updated and each directory under SRC_ROOT (or opengrok/source) will be considered to be a project.
