Apache Bloodhound is an open source web-based project management and bug tracking system. The program is built on top of Trac.[2] It is developed and maintained by volunteers at the Apache Software Foundation.

The project was initially submitted to the Apache Incubator by WANdisco[3] after integration with an issue tracker was the most requested feature for uberSVN.[4] Bloodhound graduated from the incubator on 2013-03-20 and became an Apache Top Level Project.[5][6][7]

Bloodhound is written in the Python programming language and released under the Apache Software License.

Features

Apache Bloodhound released its current Version 0.7 on August, 2013.

The software allows hyperlinking information between a bug database, revision control and wiki content. It also serves as a web interface to the revision control systems Subversion and Git among others and has support for plugins. All of these are features which Bloodhound inherits from Trac.

Bloodhound initially set out to resolve three long-standing requests with Trac:[8] management of multiple projects,[9][10] ease of installation, and ease of use it also supports embedding of Google gadgets.

In addition Bloodhound has integrated the Python library Whoosh in version 0.5,[11] providing full text search and search navigation by facets and incorporate many plugins optional in Trac out of the box.
