How to set up directories for three independents joomla websites

Hello,

maybe this presentation about Joomla and phpStorm could help you: http://de.slideshare.net/thomaskahl/using-an-ide-for-joomla-development

Cheers,

Thomas

Thanks Thomas.

I had readden this tutorial several times before to post this thread but there is a point for which I need a clarification :

3 . F u l l S i t e

T i p : a d d  a n  a d d i t i o n a l  d i r e c t o r y  l e v e l  u n d e r  y o u r  p r o j e c t s  t r e e  ( i  a l w a y s  n a m e  i t  „ s r c “ )  w h e r e  y o u  p u t  t h e  s i t e .

T h i s  w a y , y o u  c a n  h a v e  o t h e r  p r o j e c t  fi l e s  ( p h i n g , p r o fi l e r , s a s s , . . . )  i n  a n  a d d i t i o n a l  d i r e c t o r y  a b o v e  t h e  s i t e .

Also, if my project is named (i want to be sure that I do everything correctly) : MyPhpProject, then i should create three folders "site1", "site2" and "site3" under an unique forlder "src"(="joomla" for example in case of use of joomla) or three folder "src1", "src2", "src3".

To summarize, the best structure is :


c://xampp/htdocs/MyPhpProject/src/site1
c://xampp/htdocs/MyPhpProject/src/site2
c://xampp/htdocs/MyPhpProject/src/site3

OR

c://xampp/htdocs/MyPhpProject/src1/
c://xampp/htdocs/MyPhpProject/src2/
c://xampp/htdocs/MyPhpProject/src3/

?

ps : I use a pc and windows 7.

Hello,

that depends on how you are working with your projects.

I personally would create

/site1/src/
/site2/src/
/site3/src/

but if you don't need any additional files in your structure, you can of course skip the "src" level. I found it useful to have this extra level where i can store logfiles from Xampp, Phing build scripts and so on. But this is no "must". I'm sure a lot of other developer have a completely different structure. This is just what i personally like and how i work...

In goal to not keep my usual programming organisation I will also start by just:

site1/
site2/
site3/

And will add the 'src' folders later if required.

Thanks
