#1678: Make synchronous search the default behaviour

amercader — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 13:40:04 GMT

Right now you need to explicitly load the synchronous_search plugin in your ini file, when this is probably the behaviour that all users expect by default. We could keep a config flag to deactivate it, but synchronous search should be the default behaviour.

#2388: Update "out of the box" settings for CKAN

Do not show failed preview with red-bar (esp when just empty datastore ...)

Data Viewer checks if datastore is empty nad falls back to ther options if emtpy
DataStore? enabled is off by default and only turned on either explicitly by user or by DataStorer? on successful store ...

#2472: clean up datastore controller to get rid of datastore_url enables checks

kindly — Tue, 29 May 2012 12:10:07 GMT

Datastore_url enabled checks are useless.

We should probably change this to datastore_url = 'active' and only update the flag to when a attempt at a post is made.

This will need to be removed from the form at some point.

#2534: ckanext-spatial is broken with CKAN 1.8b

#2604: Add Requests as requirement for tests

amercader — Wed, 27 Jun 2012 09:43:49 GMT

Requests (http://python-requests.org) is really useful to deal with http requests and saves a lot of time.

I propose we include it as a requirement for the tests for the time being, and even for core if necessary at a later stage.

#2639: Update recline version for 1.8 release

amercader — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 14:56:49 GMT

New recline version has significant improvements like the SlickGrid? based grid view, it'd be good to have it on 1.8.

#1737: Expose solr-based search API

rgrp — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 12:57:06 GMT

Super ticket: #1745

Convert /api/rest/dataset to be search query (i.e. take arguments in ?....)
Directly expose solr though may want to override limit. See https://github.com/okfn/openspending/blob/master/openspending/ui/controllers/api.py#L48

Required for some improvements to UX (such as autocomplete and better search).

#2313: Deprecate old facet data structures and related functions.

icmurray — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 15:51:56 GMT

In branch feature-1821-multilingual-extension, a new faceting datastructure was introduced. This makes the old one and related functions obsolete. These have been marked as deprecated for the 1.7 release, and should be removed for the 1.8 release.

helpers.py:facet_items()
facets.html:facet_sidebar()
uses of c.facets (rather than c.new_facets)

#2347: Related stuff dashboard and changes

ross — Tue, 01 May 2012 13:38:59 GMT

Some additions to the related stuff functionality to make it more useful post the 1.7 release.

[x] Edit item (after checking auth)

[x] My related things on my user page

[x] Show user created related things on the users' page with links direct to the related page of that dataset. {0.5d}

[x] Related stuff usage counts { 1d }

Record the number of times the link for a related item is clicked. This is likely to mean that the link fires to call CKAN and then redirects to the actual URL.

[x] Un-attached related items {0.25d}

Allow related items to be created without being attached to datasets. This may mean that the dataset field is optional in the API.

[ ] Dashboard for related

A dashboard for related items, site-wide (not package specific) and orderable by date, views, {rating}, popularity of the dataset. Would be useful (possibly) for site-admin to mark one or more as 'featured'

[x] Dashboard + Controller (Related) {1d}

[x] Ordering at logic layer (date, views, rating, popularity of package, featured) {1d}

[x] date [x] views [x] featured

[x] 'Featured' related item with mechanism to fetch it. {0.5d}

[ ] UI within dashboard for sysadmins to check/uncheck feature status {0.5d}

[x] Changing auth for related.

Currently auth is based on deletion being possible by dataset owner and the related owner but it may be that a lot of the auth for related items should be configured to have more restrictive auth.

[x] Implement auth changes for publisher auth profile. { 0.5d }

[x] General issues

[x] Serverside validation of URLs

[x] Activity updates

[x] Make optional

[x] Related item only includes App, Idea, Visualization but not API | Post | Paper | News Article options as in original ticket #2204

[ ] UI Changes

[ ] General tidy up, fix form etc (icon for menu bar)

[ ] Highlight featured items py:if="related.featured"

[ ] Show either view count or popularity ${ related.view_count }

[ ] A user's related items should be on their home page

[ ] Related item plus sign is very poorly aligned within box

[ ] Add related items should be in drop down like for resources (?) to make it easy to add items

[ ] Hover should show a title that gives some information about what related are (not at all clear)

"Apps, Ideas, Visualization and other material related to this dataset"

[x] Related is a pretty terrible name in the UI - much better to have it called Apps, Ideas etc (perhaps title tag could even give more details e.g. "Apps, Ideas, Visualization and other material related to this dataset") -- btw i thought this was in #2332 but realize it wasn't (apologies for that!)

Went with Apps & Ideas (for now)

[x] Documentation, documentation, documentation - AFAICT I can't see anything in v1.7 or master docs. I imagine this would be a short section like http://docs.ckan.org/en/ckan-1.7/commenting.html (and probably coming right after that in the ToC) which says

What it does
How to enable (and perhaps includes a nice-screenshot!)
How to customize (e.g. can one customize the list of options of things one can create (e.g. can I set it to just be app and idea or ...)
Also liase with Mark W re a blog post about this from the user perspective (a screenshot walkthrough ...)

[ ] Clearly mark the old extension as deprecated from v1.7 forward: https://github.com/okfn/ckanext-apps (I just met someone last week who was working on integrating this and had no idea it was replaced by something better in v1.7)

#2437: Add coding standards to CKAN docs

icmurray — Mon, 28 May 2012 09:21:35 GMT

[ ] Write up python coding standards as discussed at dev-meetup into CKAN docs. (Mostly written-up as part of dev-meetup notes.)

[ ] Collate frontend coding standards (http://aron.github.com/ckan-style/styleguide/) into same doc(s).

#2438: resource_search action not accessible via GET request

icmurray — Mon, 28 May 2012 09:28:25 GMT

This action is not currently usable via a GET request as it relies upon a nested dict of fields.

#2439: tag_search and tag_autocomplete not fully available via GET request

icmurray — Mon, 28 May 2012 09:32:29 GMT

tag_search and tag_autocomplete: The fields argument is not available when accessing this action with a GET request.

#2651: Check support for TSV which doesn't appear to work well.

ross — Tue, 10 Jul 2012 12:28:38 GMT

TSV support doesn't seem to work very well, may be the mimetype ( text/tab-separated-values )

#2672: Session.is_modified should use passive=True

icmurray — Fri, 13 Jul 2012 13:18:43 GMT

#1732: Update CKAN's search for taxonomies

seanh — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 11:09:29 GMT

Initially we'll just add all tags from all vocabularies into the existing tags search facet (this should happen automatically). Later we want to enable templates to use separate search facets for different vocabularies.

Also need to make sure that search terms are matched against the texts of the tag names themselves (should happen already) and maybe also against the texts of the vocabulary names?

#1279: Refactor or deprecate Authorization Groups

amercader — Mon, 15 Aug 2011 13:36:07 GMT

Authorization Groups are going to be deprecated in 1.8

It is still unclear how Authorization Groups fit in the new authz model, so they have been left out of the logic and auth refactoring (Tickets #1229 and #1253)

#1512: Modifying user name makes you semi-log-out

rgrp — Mon, 05 Dec 2011 15:50:14 GMT

If you modify your user name, it looks like you are logged out, but you are actually logged in and therefore can't login. (Reported by Pablo)

As a work around, you need to logout and log back in.

implementation

We should force this by auto-logging you out (DR: maybe!)

#2374: tag search paging

dread — Fri, 04 May 2012 17:53:45 GMT

Currently in the logic function tag_search you can specify limit and offset, but no count is returned. Therefore pagination is not possible for tag results. This is desired though.

#2381: Related item count on ALL dataset pages

ross — Mon, 14 May 2012 15:25:33 GMT

Make sure the related item count is available on all dataset pages (inc. follow) when it is enabled.

#2500: get_action should raise an exception if the action requested doesn't exist

icmurray — Thu, 07 Jun 2012 12:36:20 GMT

Original bug report:

Hi CKAN devs,

Can I request that ckan.logic.get_action raises an exception if the action requested doesn't exist?

Two of us had a frustrating time tracking down an exception this morning. It's difficult when the exception is raised in python in a template because you don't get a line number. The problem was caused by a new logic function being added to another extension, and we hadn't updated the code there. So if get_action raised an proper exception rather than silently returning None then I think we'd have found the problem quicker.

I'd write the code for this, but as I understand that the new system would require a ticket, branch, pull request, code review, merge. It seems a lot to do for such a small thing.

#2605: Problem with user.get_groups

ross — Wed, 27 Jun 2012 10:30:06 GMT

From DR at DGU

Basically get_groups() appears to cache its results, but this falls down when subsequent calls are in a different session. We get this when saving a dataset. get_groups() first gets called in the controller when it is trying to work out what permissions the user has. It later gets called, and by this time c.userobj is detached, so get_groups() fails.

I'm working around this by refreshing c.userobj (from c.user) before calling get_groups(), but I wonder if the get_groups caching could detect the detached session and bypass the cache in this case?

#2624: Organizations breaks dataset tag editing

seanh — Mon, 02 Jul 2012 10:53:31 GMT

Enable the organizations and organizations_dataset plugins, login to ckan, create a group, create a dataset and add it to the group. Edit the dataset, add some tags to it. The new tags are not saved when you submit.

Disable the organizations and organizations_dataset plugins and tag editing works again.

#2649: Description on resources not rendered as markdown

ross — Tue, 10 Jul 2012 12:25:35 GMT

When a resource doesn't have a description, it is rendered as markdown from the description of the dataset.

If the resource does have a description it isn't rendered as markdown ..

#1471: Be compatible with new ubuntu release in April

dread — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 17:52:25 GMT

Nils flagged up that Ubuntu launches another LTS in April which we should probably move to. This ticket is to get the ball rolling with what we do. We can always include in our package the exact package versions of deps that we want, but it is good to be in line with the release if possible.

Here's how to see the packages included with it: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=python-pylons&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all

Pylons 0.9.7 -> 1.0-2 Requires a small amount of work SQLAlchemy 0.7.3-2 OK Babel 0.9.6-1 OK Genshi 0.6-2 Perfect

Another alternative is to move to another web framework, especially minding that Pylons is not being further developed.

#2344: Get jenkins install script into CKAN core

seanh — Tue, 01 May 2012 12:51:13 GMT

After checking out a commit to test from CKAN's GitHub?, Jenkins runs a script that creates a new virtual environment and installs CKAN and its dependencies into it, and does some other necessary tasks. Jenkins then runs the tests in this virtualenv.

The install script may have to change from one commit to the next as CKAN's install instructions change, so it would be good if the script was shipped in CKAN core. That way Jenkins will run different versions of the script depending on which commit it's testing and if the tests fail because the script is wrong then that's actually a bug that needs to be fixed in CKAN core. Also the CKAN install instructions could be simplified a lot by just having users run this script instead of doing each step by hand.

#2428: Reduce/sort out CKAN's dependencies

seanh — Fri, 25 May 2012 11:54:56 GMT

This ticket depends on #2423, #2424, #2425, #2426 and #2427.

Try to remove as many of CKAN's dependencies as possible

Try to update as many of the remaining ones as possible

Try to get rid of some dependencies that are fetched from random hg or git servers instead of pypi

Then try to get the order of deps in the requirements files right so that you end up with the right versions of everything

Each module in the dependencies file should specify the exact version, to protect us from changes due to them upgrading versions under us and breaking things or changing their own deps

Consider shipping dependencies with ckan instead of pip installing them?

This is related to moving CKAN to Ubuntu 12.04

Add a test case that runs pip freeze and tests that all the right versions of deps are installed?

#2600: Replace broken "Login to Add an Organization" button

seanh — Tue, 26 Jun 2012 14:41:58 GMT

If you're not logged in and you click this button, it takes you to the add group page not the login page. Anyway, the default behaviour everywhere else in CKAN is to hide buttons that you don't have permission to use (e.g. add dataset, edit dataset, etc.)

#2682: CKAN's internal tracking counts each view twice, needs unit tests

seanh — Mon, 16 Jul 2012 13:46:42 GMT

CKAN's internal tracking seems to count each page view twice, the problem appears to be with the SQL in the update_tracking() method in ckan/lib/cli.py.

The internal tracking feature needs some tests, and some of the code could maybe do with some more explanatory comments, e.g. what is the intended difference between count and running_total?

#1387: Not specifying a protocol in dataset url causes broken link to be served on dataset view page

GroupController?'s history() method doesn't pass 'extras_as_string': True in the context when it calls group_show. This means that if you have an IGroupForm plugin that is adding a custom metadata field and using convert_to/from_extras() then a field value of 'foo' will be returned as '"foo"'

Other GroupController? and PackageController? methods do pass 'extras_as_string'

#2859: Fix the build

icmurray — Thu, 16 Aug 2012 09:26:57 GMT

The requires files have been removed. These were required by buildkit.

We've lost the information regarding which packages were already in ubuntu repos, which conflicted and which were missing. But perhaps we can just package everything up.

#2279: Write tutorial for our DataStore API / Data Explorer

rgrp — Tue, 03 Apr 2012 19:44:23 GMT

Unfortunately ES is a little bit complex / opaque to newcomers. Need to write a simple tutorial walking through this.

This is documentation / example only (no code!)

#2771: Documentation and examples for IDatasetForm and IGroupForm

seanh — Fri, 27 Jul 2012 12:30:38 GMT

Add minimal, working IDatasetForm and IGroupForm example extensions to core, with tests.

The IDatasetForm example should use tag vocabularies (two birds with one stone)

The IDatasetForm and IGroupForm docs are not very good (and are somewhat spread around different doc chapters), fix them up, and reference the new working examples.

Tab Vocabularies docs should reference IDatasetForm example.

When using convert_to/from_extras() you have to remove any free extras from the form or it won't work, this needs to be documented (in the docstring maybe)

There have been recent changes to the schemas that IDatasetForm and IGroupForm use, make sure the docs are up to date.

#2499: Documentation for the internal analytics

icmurray — Thu, 07 Jun 2012 11:58:17 GMT

There's no docs for setting up the internal analytics, nor what it provides.

Setup

#2936: Updating a group via the API clears its packages

seanh — Wed, 19 Sep 2012 09:47:46 GMT

If the group dict that you post to the API does not have any 'packages' key then all the group's packages get removed. I think it would be better if you could just update e.g. the group's description without having to also post the list of packages, and apparently this is how other update API actions work.

Might be worth checking all the update API actions for this behaviour, and making sure they're all consistent

#2958: Uploading files with unicode characters in filename fails in CKAN 1.7 and 1.8
