This post will show you how to install redmine mylyn connector in zend studio or eclipse.
firstly you need to configure redmine:
- update your redmine to the latest version [see instructions here]
- install redmine mylyn connector in redmine [see instruction here]
once your redmine is updated and the plugin installed you have to setup zend studio / eclipse:
- add the redmine mylyn source to zend studio / eclipse
- help > install new software > add > http://redmin-mylyncon.sourceforge.net/update-site/N/
- make sure ‘eclipse’ sources are enabled if you are running zend studio
- help > install new software > available sites > tick or add eclipse
- [ see list here for your version of eclipse ]
- install zend studio / eclipse plugin for redmine
- help > install new software > select ‘all available sites’ >
- type redmine > select the redmine mylyn plugin
- restart zend studio / eclipse
once redmine is updated / configured and your eclipse / zend studio are setup you can add your redmine task repo to zend studio / eclipse
- window > show view > other > mylyn > tasks list
- click on the little icon (top left) that looks like a page with a + in it
- this opens the ‘add repository’
- you can also get here by going to:
- window > show view > other > mylyn > task repositories > right click > add new repository
- you can now configure your repository
- click ‘redmine’ > next >
- enter your redmine servers url
- tick the ‘api key’ and paste in your api key from your redmine account page
- [login to your account on redmine and goto ‘my account’ – in the side bar there is a heading for ‘api key’ with a link called ‘show’ if you click this then you will see the api key]
you are now ready to add tasks :D
