Start a New Project
When you extract the IDM .zip file, you have a default project under /path/to/openidm
.
Important
You can use this project to test customizations, but you should not run the default project in production.
Set up a new project as follows:
Create a directory for your new project:
mkdir /path/to/my-project
Set up a minimal configuration:
If your project will be similar to any of the sample configurations, copy the contents of the sample to your new project.
For example:
cp -r /path/to/openidm/samples/sync-with-ldap/* /path/to/my-project/
You can then customize the sample configuration according to your requirements.
If you do not want to start with one of the sample configurations, copy the
conf/
andscript/
directories from the default project to your new project directory:cp -pr /path/to/openidm/conf /path/to/my-project/ cp -pr /path/to/openidm/script /path/to/my-project/
You can then customize the default configuration according to your requirements.
Start your new project as follows:
/path/to/openidm/startup.sh -p /path/to/my-project
