Create an admin dashboard as /ckan-admin/ allowing for admin operations and overview.

Possible features:

• Purge revisions (or sets of revisions) and purge objects #1076
• Set roles for users #1075
• Put system into particular modes e.g. wiki mode (anyone can add, edit packages by default), data portal (only sysadmins or members of a special Editor group can create and edit packages)
  • WONTFIX
• Overview of activity
  • WONTFIX - already have revision log

Currently have an admin section using the formalchemy admin controller to provide basic editing of model objects. This can still be used but located at /admin/model/.

Notes

Here's putting into restricted mode (plus creating a dedicated authz group so that others can admin sysadmin simply through that group):

# first remove permissions from roles
# this is hacky but have to do it because we hardcode assignment of 
# role permissions on package on package create (see model/authz.py)
paster roles deny editor edit
paster roles deny editor create-authorization-group
paster roles deny editor create-group
paster roles deny editor create-package
paster roles deny reader create-package
# make superuser group
# create authz group administrators / Administrators (if not exists)
paster rights make agroup:administrators admin system

As a sysadmin I want to take CKAN out of wiki-mode into normal mode. In normal mode visitor and logged in users cannot create or add packages.

Suggest put this as an internal command in authz system and add to cli as paster command.

A user reported wanting to install ckan at a suburl. Apparently this does not work well because some urls are hard-coded: ​http://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/ckan-discuss/2010-November/000726.html

Instead we should use the site_url config option where necessary.
