Creating a new project
When you log in for the first time, Minder automatically creates a new project to manage your entities (repositories, artifacts, etc). You can also create projects for additional GitHub organizations that you manage.
Alternatively, you can register multiple entity providers within a project, for example to manage resources from several GitHub organizations from a single Minder project.
Prerequisites
- A Minder account
- A GitHub organization that does not have the Stacklok Cloud GitHub App installed. Owner access is required to install new apps.
Create a new project
To create a new Minder project, add the Stacklok Cloud GitHub App
to a GitHub organization that you own. When the app is installed on a GitHub
organization that is not already registered with Minder, a new project named
github-<org-name> is created and you are assigned the Admin role.
If the organization already has the GitHub App installed, an existing Minder project admin can invite you from User Management.
Add a GitHub organization to an existing project
Use the CLI command minder provider enroll
to register a new GitHub provider within an existing Minder project. The
selected GitHub organization is added to the project instead of creating a new
one.
If you previously enabled automatic registration of new repositories in your project, this is a per-provider setting and you must separately enable it for the new GitHub organization.
Next steps
Register repositories from the new GitHub organization to begin applying profiles.
