Chapter 2. Forking the RHTAP catalog repository


Once developers start using your instance of RHTAP, you might want to customize your instance, to better suit their needs. One aspect of RHTAP that you can customize is the set of software templates that it provides. These templates help developers quickly build applications.

Forking our catalog repository, which contains the default set of software templates, enables you to customize the templates for your instance.

Prerequisites:

  • A GitHub account

Procedure:

  1. In your web browser, navigate to the RHTAP software catalog repository.
  2. Beneath the banner of the page, select Fork and fork the repository.

    1. Uncheck the box that says "Copy the main branch only".
  3. In your new fork, beneath the banner, click main to open a dropdown menu. Under Tags, select the release that corresponds to the version of RHTAP that you are using.

    1. For example, if you are using version 1.0.0 of RHTAP, you should use your forked instance of this release.

      Note

      Be sure to update your fork from time to time, so updates from the upstream repository can benefit your instance of RHTAP.
