It is possible to use the CKAN API to insert JSON format data into package extra values, but this data is displayed in the package edit form.

Example: Package ​http://ckan.net/package/hbz_unioncatalog in the API the extra value as a list:

"extras": {"publishingInstitution": ["http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-605", "http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-290"...

yet when you edit the package it loses all the quotes and brackets: ​http://ckan.net/package/edit/hbz_unioncatalog {{{​http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-605http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-290... }}} so when you save the package, the list is mangled into a bad string.

Full text from Pascal:

we encountered a Problem concerning accessing Arrays/Lists.

curl -XGET 'http://ckan.net/api/rest/package/hbz_unioncatalog'

will get you amongst others:

 "extras": {"publishingInstitution":
"[u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-605',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-290',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-38M',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-98',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-38',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-Kn41',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-82',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-107',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-929',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-Zw1',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-832']"}

but if I try to query this:

wget
'http://ckan.net/api/search/package?q=lobid&publishingInstitution="http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-605"'

I get only two packages, among the package "hbz_unioncatalog" is
missing. (These two packages have only one value for
"publishingInstitution").

The "extra/publishingInstitution"-Array was uploaded through a "curl
-XPUT ...
 "extras": {
   "publishingInstitution":[

Consolidate js. Remove cruft.

  • Have all vendor libs local (?)
  • jquery, jquery-ui etc
• Consolidate autocomplete to use jquery-ui
  • package autocomplete (groups)
  • tag autocomplete (package)

• Move forms.css into main
• Remove tag cloud from front page (can be example going forward)
• Remove bookmarklet (since in wiki at: ​http://wiki.ckan.net/Managing_Data_Packages#How_Do_I_Install_the_CKAN_Bookmarklet.3F)
