We want to add "activity streams" (chronological lists of activities) to CKAN.

Activity streams standard: ​http://activitystrea.ms/

Super branch where the feature was initially developed (this has now been merged into master): ​https://github.com/okfn/ckan/tree/feature-1515-activity-streams

Etherpad: ​http://ckan.okfnpad.org/notifications (most relevant parts inlined here)

Friedrich's mockup: ​http://datahub.pudo.org/pudo

Tasks

Strikethrough means the task is done.

• New domain objects Activity and ActivityStream? [2d] #1298

• Migrate existing data into activity streams model [3.5d] #1510

• Generate activities when objects are saved [4d] #1298

• Get the activity stream for a given user as a JSONifiable list of dictionaries [1d] #1511

• API call for getting a user's public activity stream as JSON [0.5d] #1495

• API call for getting a user's public activity stream as rendered text, HTML, etc. [5d] #1494

• Render a user's activity stream on her user page [3d] #1496 (needs review/page design work)

• Generate activities for other types of objects besides users (e.g. packages, groups, tags, extras, and save them in the database.

• Logic functions for getting activity streams for packages, groups, and users.

• API calls for getting activity streams of packages, groups, and users as JSON.

• Rendering activity streams for packages and groups etc. into their pages. (done but disabled pending page design work)

• API calls for inserting events into activity streams. (Still need to handle activity details in the API, ticketed).

• Conform to activitystrea.ms standard

• Enable users to subscribe to and unsubscribe from activity streams, see an aggregated activity stream on their dashboard page.

• Generate aggregated activity streams for arbitrary sets of multiple activity sources/streams

• Email notifications

• Extension point for extensions to register themselves as renderers for different types of activity

• Deploy to UAT [0.5d]

• Docs and announce [1d]

This requires adding a logic function for emitting an activity stream event, and then editing the logic functions for creating or updating users and making them call the new emit event function. This same emit event function can later be used to emit activity stream events for other types of object as well.
