Provide help to users in the WUI, with this linking to a detailed user guide.

Est: (?) 5-10d

Topics

See ​http://ckan.okfnpad.org/datahub-help

Why do this

We already have wiki.ckan.org and docs.ckan.org. Why do this?

Answer for docs:

• This is administrative guide and focused on general CKAN software.
• Hard to provide completely generic help.
• Integratable with the DataHub? site

Answer for wiki:

• No spam
• General feeling that wikis are a little bit loose and untidy. We want this to be smart, clean and useful.
• Integratable with the DataHub?

We already have first pass of Data Preview that was done as part of #1357. This is about v2 of this. Two main components:

• A new version of the separate Data Explorer library (now called Recline Data Explorer) - #1446 Est: 10-15d
  • Why:
    • Cleaner, backbone based solution.
    • Provides editing support if wanted.
    • Collaboration with Max Ogden
• Integrate this into CKAN (into resource view page) - see #1630 Est: 1d
• Improvements to Data Viewer / Previewer system in CKAN itself - Est: 2-3d
  • (Update Data Preview-er (View-er) to support images ...)
  • (WONTFIX here - (?) Update Data Preview-er to support geodata - #1151)
