Track multiple Discourse instances

[hmitsch]

We would like to be able to have more than one Discourse instance in our Community Analytics stack. It is currently of secondary concern on whether or not these multiple instances will be visualized in one dashboard or in multiple-dashboards (tabs).

Thanks, @hmitsch for the proposal. I understand that what you mean is having the chance of specifying more than one Discourse instance when you specify the list of repositories to analyze, right?

If this is the case, I think this needs to be supported in mordred. Am I right, @acs ?

[acs]

Yes, this should be supported in mordred but not only. In our projects.json format that defines the data sources to be analyzed, only one discourse site can be added. The categories for this unique discourse site are then mapped to projects. Supporting having more than one discourse site will have impact in both places: mordred and projects definition (GrimoireELK).

This is already possible using tags in the mordred configuration:

[discourse:site1]
raw_index = discourse_raw
enriched_index = discourse_enriched
no-archive = true

[discourse:site2]
raw_index = discourse_raw
enriched_index = discourse_enriched
no-archive = true

This section describes how to configure the platform for discourse.
