With Github and co, online software development has improved, and we are updating the Magnolia Forge concept to take advantage of that. |
Goals
Reduce the load on Magnolia infrastructure and staff.
Easier and more "self-service" for contributing developers.
More visibility for forge projects
Easier , and easier for other developers to contribute to forge projects.
The planned changes
Code hosting
Move from Magnolia's Bitbucket server to the magnolia-community Github organization.
(Existing Bitbucket projects will be preserved, but we encourage you to migrate them to Github.)
...
Forge module boilerplate
Move to sample projects on Github: forge-community-sample, and forge-enterprise-sample
(Both the Maven Archetype for Forge projects, and the Forge parent poms are deprecated in favor of the simplified approach described on the above Github projects.)
Your move
If you have an existing forge project, but want to move your project to github (yes!), go ahead and submit a new forge request to get access to the magnolia-community organization.
