Access Projects¶
You access your projects from My Projects in the left navigation pane. The Projects page shows all of your coding projects and those projects that have been shared with you.
If a project has been shared with you, you can view the projects from the Shared with me page on the Projects dashboard.
Access another user’s project¶
If you know the user name of another Codio user, you can enter the URL for their account (https://codio.com/username) and view their Project dashboard, where all of their public projects will be displayed. You can click the project to load it into the IDE and copy it into your account (you cannot edit another user’s project). See Copying a Project for more information.
You cannot edit another user’s project but you can copy a project into your own account.
Open a project¶
To open a project in the IDE, simply click the project name.
Access project settings¶
Use one of the following methods to access your project settings:
Open the project and click the Settings (gear) icon.
Open the project, click the Project tab and choose Settings on the menu bar.
Filter projects¶
You can filter how the projects are displayed on the Project page by name or most recently accessed. Click the filter drop-down and choose Name or Last Accessed.
Search projects¶
To search for a specific project, enter the name in the Search text box. The file list dynamically filters the projects as you enter characters.
Codio also supports advanced search capabilities which use search tokens to narrow your search criteria. The following search tokens are supported:
Tokens with parameters allow you to type the search criteria after the colon delimiter:
name: search the project name
desc: search the project description
owner: search the project owner
org: search for an organization name
begin: search for a class start date (Education feature)
end: search for a class end date (Education feature)
Tokens without parameters can be used simply by adding a space after them if you have anything else to enter in the search line:
my: show only projects owned by me
shared: show only projects that are shared with me
public: show only my public projects
private: show only my private projects
For example:
public: desc:javascript searches your public projects where ‘javascript’ appears in the project description.
owner:superman javascript searches projects owned by the user ‘superman’’ where ‘javascript’ appears in the project name or description.
