Try i18n for one language (German) for ckan (de.ckan.net).

Basic approach to i18n is well-covered in Pylons book: ​http://pylonsbook.com/en/1.1/internationalization-and-localization.html

However, we need to integrate with our Genshi templates. Details on how to do this in comment: ​http://wiki.pylonshq.com/display/pylonsdocs/Internationalization+and+Localization

Steps

1. i18n templates
   • Extract content using Babel
   • Get genshi translation working
   • Do the translation!
2. i18n all strings in controllers (if any)
3. i18n forms

As a

admin

I want to

input government data in a constrained way

so that

you get consistency in the db which is easily searched, discovered and automatically linked.

implementation

Form has fields suitable for government data. (related to custom excel importer ticket)

In pylons config specify the form schema to use - whether the existing one or the government one.

On submission, during validation, warn if a field isn't completed (unless it's optional - agency, maintainer, maintainer_email)

Simple fields

• all basic ckan fields
• default license to OKD::Crown Copyright
• co_id, precision, taxonomy url, agency

Date fields

Date format: machine readable. Can be specific or vague: year or month/year or day/month/year.

• date_released

• date_updated

• temporal_coverage_from, temporal_coverage_to - two date fields combined

Strict selection

Drop down combo

• department

Selection or free text

Editable combo

• update_frequency - selections: never, weekly, monthly, annually, discontinued

• geographic_granularity - selections: national, regional, local authority, ward, point

• temporal_granularity - selections: yes, months, weeks, days, hours, point

Specialised fields

• geographic_coverage - UI is tick boxes. store a comma separated list of all that apply from: england, scotland, wales, northern ireland, overseas, global

(Idea for future version: Select the most relevant one from a choice of OS hierarchical geographic IDs in the UK. Stored in the database as the RDF URI. Question - what to do beyond the UK?)

• national_statisic - UI is check box, store as 'Yes' or 'No'

• resources - use standard table, but suggestions for file type are: RDF, CSV, SPARQL, REST, XBRL, SDMX, Other XML, HTML+RDFa, XLS, DOC. Have warning label saying it is not ideal to have PDF, zip or html targets.

• categories - multi values from strict selection of ONS categories. Stored as comma-separated.

Field data processed

• tags - in addition to words entered here, search for known keywords in other fields: title, notes, department, agency, geographic coverage & categories.

Future - optional

Each form schemas is made available (or not) in the pylons config, along with the default schema for new packages. If there is more than just the 'basic' schema available then the 'new package' form has at the top a drop-down to select the schema with a 'switch' button. This submits the form's current data and parameter schema=xyz and the form arrives back populated with the existing options. No data should be lost switching views.

When you edit a package it detects the schema based on the extra fields that are present.
