As a

Sysadmin

I want to

Dump (serialize) CKAN data to a simple transport format (e.g. JSON) and be able to load it again.

Details

• Already have simple db dump. However dumping to JSON has various advantages, particularly where changes to the data need to be made upon reloading (e.g. during a migration).
• Dump should include *all* CKAN data (i.e. all the data in the CKAN db tables)

Should have function/facility to get a diff of a version object between 2 revisions. Function should return a dictionary of fields with diffs.

Details:

• Do we deal with m2m relationships (and m2one on the many side)?
• What is diff?
  • For text fields output of python diff command
  • For non-text field guess just simple +/- for what was there before and now

Cost: 4h (don't think this is a huge request)
