[Trac] Re: Multi project
hello, in my company we have more than 20 trac 0.10 (+svn repository) projects (and counting). Project manager need to know global information in real time to track people work, for this reasson we've coded a simple pluggin based on ticket notification system that dumps information to global mysql database (sqlite is too slow when report queries are complex). Global database schema is equals than trac with project column in some tables. interesting thread. Macbane escribió: > Hi, > > I have read some of the proposals, for multi project trac.

[Trac] Re: Multi project
You can read about it here: http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/MultipleRepositorySupport. It's in the sandbox section as http://trac.edgewall.org/browser/sandbox/multirepos. Christian last synced it with trunk 4 weeks ago, and I've encountered almost no issues using it (although I don't believe it supports [123:130] links yet). I believe we'll be using Datamover for some maintenance going forward. From what I could tell it didn't quite do everything I needed at the time in an easy, automated fashion. I setup a th page for the script, http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TracMergeScript, but the code isn't up yet. Right now the only working example is using our internal instances, so I'm going to build a generic example and post that. (Plus, the code is a bit ugly and lacking in even accurate docstrings at the moment). The way I handled namespacing was unfortunately manual, but therefore powerful and predictable. Because our existing wikis were something of a mess I ended up doing many renames. I have a csv file like the example below that explicitly renames each page. I used excel to put ProjectName/OldName for some of the projects that were just being strictly namespaced. It also will let you delete pages or pass them through unchanged. SourceTrac,SourcePage,DestTrac,DestName ProjectA,ReleaseNotes,Dev,ProjectA/ReleaseNotes ProjectB,ReleaseNotes,Dev,ProjectB/ReleaseNotes ProjectA,GetAnotherDeveloper,Intranet,Hiring/Jobs/Developer2007 It pads tickets by an arbitrary amount, so Project A gets a pad of 1000, Project B of 2000, so Project A ticket 123 becomes 1123 and B's 123 becomes 2123. It adds each milestone, component, and enum value. It updates links for wiki pages, milestones, tickets and changesets/revisions automatically. I hope that helps! I'm curious what you're situation might require that I haven't through of, as well.

The very brief overview is that there are some plugins and 3rd-party tools around now that do "heavyweight" multi-project support. This means each project gets its own Environment. The flavor it looks like Trac core will adopt is a much lighter-weight system where most of the tables just get an extra "project" column, and the UI is restructured a bit.

But I haven't really looked at the problem space so I'll stop running my mouth off now. TracForge is the only major option that has been ported to 0.11 AFAIK (though it still needs more work). I agree the TracForge approach should stay well out of Trac core, and hopefully the other developers will agree with me. --Noah signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

After struggling with multiple (~13) disparate tracs I've built a system to merge them down to two tracs. We're using wiki namespacing (Project/ReleaseNotes), and added a custom ticket field called "Project."

[Trac] Re: Multi project
My company also has a need for a project hierarchy within Trac. But I must agree with Jeff Hammel's comment. The core of Trac should be as it is a minimalist approach but allow a third party program, plug in or whatever to upgrade Trac easily to a more multi project environment. But I have not looked into the current answer of creating multiple Trac environments. In my opinion if Trac could be upgraded with a simple plug in to allow a simple project hierarchy within one Trac environment, this would make Trac much more powerful and desirable. -- __ Eric Research and Development OEM Controls Inc.
