Description

When I run this command:

find . -type f -name '*.java' | /path/to/phabricator/scripts/symbols/generate_ctags_symbols.php | /path/to/phabricator/www/phabricator/scripts/symbols/import_project_symbols.php blah

I receive the following message:

Project 'blah' is unknown. Upload a diff to implicitly create it.

Here's what my .arcconfig file contains:

{
   "project_id" : "blah",
   "conduit_uri" : "http://www.myphabricatorinstall.com/"
 }

I've created a diff using arc diff and it seemed to work (i.e., it showed up on the web interface), although I can't say I really understand Differential.

What do?

I'd expect that to have created "blah". You can see if it actually exists in the Repositories application (/repository/).

Alas, the project shows up under Repositories, but not Arcanist Projects.

If you run arc list --trace, does it show the .arcconfig file you expect to be loaded actually getting loaded? That is, the first few lines should look like this:

>>> orbital ~/devtools/phabricator $ arc list --trace
libphutil loaded from '/INSECURE/devtools/libphutil/src'.
arcanist loaded from '/INSECURE/devtools/arcanist/src'.
Working Copy: Reading .arcconfig from "/INSECURE/devtools/phabricator/.arcconfig".
...

The third line there shows where .arcconfig is being read from.

(Generally, we're moving to de-emphasize Arcanist Projects because they're dumb and bad, but aren't quite there yet.)

Ugh, there's no line about .arcconfig. How do I tell it where to look?

The next couple lines should say something like:

...
Working Copy: Path "/INSECURE/devtools/phabricator" is part of `git` working copy "/INSECURE/devtools/phabricator".
Working Copy: Project root is at "/INSECURE/devtools/phabricator".
...

Putting it directly inside the project root is the most general way to get it picked up. Here, the project root is /INSECURE/devtools/phabricator so the place to put it would be /INSECURE/devtools/phabricator/.arcconfig.

That seems to have worked; thanks.

Cool. See also T3130 for Java -- searching for symbols will work fine, but we could link more symbols in actual diffs with a smarter lexer.
