Custom Query (2152 matches)

An install of CKAN should be configurable without changing any of the installed files. This makes it clear to upgrade CKAN. Complete the changes in this wiki page to allow static files to be served from outside CKAN paths over CKAN versions and additional CSS file to be pulled in.

As a

CKAN client using JQuery

I want to

call the CKAN API and instead of receiving back JSON I get JSONP. i.e. "%s(%s)" % (callback, json_content)

Suggested implementation

All API calls allow the JSONP 'callback' parameter to be specified in the request and this wraps the JSON response. See suggested patch to rest.py by Donovan Hide:

​http://knowledgeforge.net/ckan/trac/attachment/ticket/336/resource.patch

Test

import re import unittest

def test_jsonp_callback():

response = self.app.get('/api/search/resource/?url=​http://www.scraperwiki.com&callback=jsoncallback') match = re.match('jsoncallback\(.*\);',response) self.assertTrue(match)

response = self.app.get('/api/search/resource/?url=​http://www.scraperwiki.com') match = re.match('jsoncallback\(.*\);',response) self.assertFalse(match)

I think the point needs to be made that JSONP only works for GET requests and not POST/PUT/DELETE, so there needs to be a check for that in the _finish_ok method.

(thanks to Donovan Hide for test)
