Creating a project
Walkthrough of the Create New Project wizard, from choosing a Git provider to assigning servers per stage.
Open the wizard
On the Projects page, start a new project to open the Create New Project wizard. It walks you through three steps, shown in the indicator at the top: Source, Details and Servers. Use Next and Back to move between steps; you can also click a previous step in the indicator to jump back. If Next is not available yet, a short hint next to the buttons tells you what is still missing.
Step 1: Source
Pick GitHub or GitLab at the top. If your account is not connected yet, the wizard shows an authorization notice with a Connect button (OAuth) and an alternative link to configure a Personal Access Token instead. See Connecting GitHub and Connecting GitLab.
Once connected, choose the project type:
- New Project: start from scratch; CICDoo creates the repository for you.
- Existing Project: import a repository you already have. A search field appears; type at least two characters to search, then pick a result with the mouse or with the arrow keys and Enter. Each result shows the repository name, description, stars and its default branch, and the selected repository card shows the branch that will be used.
Step 2: Details
- Project Name: a friendly name to identify your project. Required. When you import an existing repository, the name is pre-filled from the repository (you can still change it).
- Version: choose the Odoo version from the dropdown. It covers versions from 11.0 up to the latest releases and master.
- Edition: Community (Open Source) or Enterprise.
- Enterprise also requires a GitHub Personal Access Token with access to the private Odoo Enterprise repositories. The wizard shows an "Enterprise Edition Requires PAT" notice with your PAT status, and its Configure PAT button takes you back to the Source step to save one.
Step 3: Servers
This step opens with a summary of your choices (provider, source, name, version and edition) so you can review before creating. Under Server Assignment, at least one server is required:
- Production Server: required. Search and select one of your servers. If you have exactly one server, it is selected for you automatically.
- Staging Server: optional.
- Development Server: optional.
If you have no servers yet, the wizard shows a "No servers available" warning with a link to the Servers page (or, in a workspace where you cannot add servers, a note to contact your workspace owner). See Adding a server.
Finishing
Click Create Project to finish. Creating a project is not capped: each project you create simply starts its own subscription, see Plans and pricing. Your project then appears on the Projects page, see Branches and instances for what happens next.
If you get stuck, open a support ticket from the Tickets page or the chat widget.
