Makes sense to keep all auth stuff under logic/auth.

Also decide which functions from new_authz.pu should be marked private with _.

Also decide which functions from new_authz.py are really helpers for the auth functions in get.py, update.py and delete.py, and should maybe moved to another file, e.g. logic/auth/helpers.py

The button will not show if you are not authorized but browse to /organization/members/foo and you can edit the members, it does stop you when you try to save your changes, but you shouldn't be able to get to the page at all

e.g. it the 'Members' button links to /organization/members/0a44... instead of /organization/members/foobar

New recline version has significant improvements like the SlickGrid? based grid view, it'd be good to have it on 1.8.

e.g. if I just changed a member's capacity I am not adding anything 'save' is better maybe

e.g. ​http://thedatahub.org/tag/lod

Tags with less datasets work fine (e.g. ​http://thedatahub.org/tag/railways)

The CKAN instance on data.gov.uk serves invalid URIs out of its API.

For example the following can be found,

​http://uk.sitestat.com/homeoffice/rds/s?rds.hosb0509tabsxls&ns_type=pdf&ns_url=[http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pdfs09/hosb0509tabs.xls]

In this URI, the : and / characters after the ? in the query part are invalid according to section 3.4 of RFC2396

Also URIs are not stripped of whitespace at the end.

This causes problems when other software with a more correct interpretation of what a valid URI is attempts to consume data from CKAN. In this instance the Talis triplestore complains about such URIs.

"Be liberal in what you accept and conservative in what you send" would seem apt.

Actions

• Validation of urls as part of form entry or data loading
  • Need to consider situation where this should happen out-of-band (i.e. we allow load even with invalid data and then flag bad dates in separate validation process). In general doubtful that we should do this here because url invalidity is such a big deal
• This code should support analysis of existing data so we can go through existing database and find invalid urls
  • Also useful to have this so we can do out of band validation

At the moment everyone can read all resources. There is no support for hiding resources that are in private datasets.

On the edit dataset page... there needs to be a way for users to be able to see all the resources associated to the dataset and edit them individually.

The GRANT SELECT ON ALL and ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES are not available in Postgres prior to version 9.0.

With the latest template, css and js changes in 2.0, there are a number of things that need preparation prior to a production deployment. One of these is:

• the fanstatic_resources defined in ckan/lib/fanstatic_resources.py (bottom of module) should be prepared, and minified.

This ticket is to:

• provide a paster command which when run will generate the minified javascript as css files.
• stop the auto-minification of files when CKAN starts up.
• remove reference to the minified files in the .gitignore file.
• add instruction to the release process to run this command, and check-in the minified files to the repo.

## Background

Currently, minification works seamlessly without the need for any preparation when CKAN is started in a development setup. But on a production site, the webserver will (almost certainly) not have write-access to the directories that will contain the minified files. And so the minification will fail, and the site will end up serving the un-minified media, or even *old* minified media.

One way around this would be to allow webserver write access to the directory its serving out of. But this is not generally considered good practice.

Another method would be to distribute the minified files with CKAN. This ticket describes how to do this without causing a lot of noise in the commit history of the repo.

The auto-minifcation occurs when importing ckan/lib/fanstatic_resources.py.

## Changing the process slightly

The reason for moving away from auto-minifying files at start-up, to minifying files when running a paster command is:

• we should be distributing the minified files when we make a release (as we do with translation files). This makes it easier to install CKAN from source.

• if we distribute the minified files, then they need to be checked-in to the repo.

• if they are auto-minified, whenever small changes are made, then this will create a lot of noise in the repo. It will be clearer to have the minified-files generated manually as part of the release process. (Or whever we make a deployment internally).

There are now javascript translations. There's a paster command, trans js. This is a ticket to ensure that using trans js is documented in the normal ckan translation workflow (which is followed after a feature freeze, prior to release). And to see if there's any need for further incorporation into the current translation process.

Recline allows negative ranges. The backend returns an error 500 for that which breaks the recline preview.

The pdf preview does not load in IE 9.

Opera cannot show a recline preview. I shows 0 records.

When POSTing to the API, if specified, the 'Content-Type' header must be blank or 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'. Otherwise we get an error like: "Bad request - JSON Error: Could not extract request body data: Bad content type: \'; charset=utf-8\'""

The problem is that this is a very reasonable header to send. Indeed requests 0.14 sends this particular header.

This affects all versions of CKAN.

This is due to webob/requests.py:1248 being pretty basic.

GroupController?'s history() method doesn't pass 'extras_as_string': True in the context when it calls group_show. This means that if you have an IGroupForm plugin that is adding a custom metadata field and using convert_to/from_extras() then a field value of 'foo' will be returned as '"foo"'

Other GroupController? and PackageController? methods do pass 'extras_as_string'

If the group dict that you post to the API does not have any 'packages' key then all the group's packages get removed. I think it would be better if you could just update e.g. the group's description without having to also post the list of packages, and apparently this is how other update API actions work.

Might be worth checking all the update API actions for this behaviour, and making sure they're all consistent

The user management in organizations ( ​http://localhost:5000/organization/users/NAME ) should autocomplete names in the dropdown box so that only valid usernames are added to the table.

The demo branch fails huge numbers of tests.

many are going to be template based - these need to be sorted - ideally we need to get them to work with legacy/new templates but see how we go on that one

anyhow this is not a priority whilst we are branched but needs resolving before we merge into master

There's quite a lot of custom stuff going on, with all the custom jinja extensions, and the use of Fanstatic plus custom fanstatic extensions. People who are new to CKAN wanting to write CKAN themes are likely to be confused. I think the whole lot could do with documentation, maybe in the Theming and Customizing chapter in the sphinx docs.

I suggest completely replacing the contents of doc/theming.rst, and putting a 'legacy theming' link at the bottom linking to a doc/legacy_theming.rst file with the old contents.

The application's Globals object is not very informative.

Before releasing CKAN 2.0 we need to run all the CKAN tests with a modified test-core.ini with the example_idatasetform, example_igroupform and example_iorganizationform plugins enabled. If any tests fail, fix the bugs. This needs to be done for each release so add it to the release process.

Finish the tests for the per-package-type custom template support in IPackageForm, IGroupForm and IOrganizationForm (i.e. the new_template(), read_template() etc. methods).

The new way that template inheritance works in jinja looks like it should allow this to be tested nicely without duplicating entire templates in the example extensions.

Add a better docstring to for trans js command explaining what it does and why, and how to use it.

Also add this command to the CKAN Release Process as it's needed there

I'm unsure about what's going on here. As I understand it, when we run python setup.py extract_messages it's going to use the extract_ckan() function from ckan/lib/extract.py to process the HTML files. For the HTML files that are jinja2 templates, extract_ckan() will call jinja2_cleaner() which will call regularise_html() on the strings. So the strings are regularised when they are extracted from the source files.

But then we have the parse() method of CkanInternationalizationExtension? also calling regularise_html(). I don't get what's happening here. Why do the strings need to be regularised twice?

My guess is that CkanInternationalizationExtension? is used when the strings are extracted from the templates at runtime, and they need to be regularised at this time in order to match them against the regularised strings in the mo files to find the translations to output?

Maybe CkanInternationalizationExtension? needs a better docstring saying what it does?

In setup.py, do we still need:

('templates/.txt', 'genshi', {

'template_class': 'genshi.template:TextTemplate'

}),

in message_extractors? Doesn't like there are any txt files in there anymore.

Organization administrators can delete themselves from the user management pages. We should disable this on the front-end as well as the back-end.

Some sort of citation helper. Something small on the dataset and resource page that would show how to cite.

wwaites: Some related thoughts on this from opb: ​http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/opb/papers/ssdbm2006.pdf

timclicks: I'm looking at Dataverse for the first time[0]. It seems very popular in the social sciences. I noticed that there is a recommended citation for each dataset. For example, [1] is has this one: "Targeted Input Programme (TIP) 2000-01", ​http://hdl.handle.net/1902.1/SSC-MWI-TIP2000-01-M1 V1 [Version]"

Implementation

Add a small box at bottom of dataset / resource page (or in sidebar on dataset page) with title "Cite this" with contents like:

%title. %author. Retrieved %date. %site_title.

For resource: %title = %dataset_title. %resource_name.

Could also add export to ref managers (e.g. to bibtex) but that is for later.

On the organization read page there is only an 'Add Dataset' button, not a drop-down with add new dataset or add existing dataset as on the default group page.

On the organization edit page you do have the drop-down, but if you click add existing dataset nothing happens except it appends #datasets to the URL

They are currently are just a small image / name. They should be: Larger image, Full name (username), description, edits/dataset

At the moment if you have an related item with an image associated to a dataset that appears in the side column it's resized but doesn't keep it's original aspect ratio.

On step 1 for adding a dataset can we add a ajax ping that checks if the URL that is generated by the JS is taken? Behaviour should be as follows:

1. User types title in box (as current)

2. URL key is regexed by JS (as current)

3. The JS does a ajax call to check if the generated URL key is valid. The ajax callback returns a JSON dump which contains what the URL key should be (e.g. if 'test' was taken it returns 'test-1')

4. If the URL key returned in the ajax is different than the one generated by the JS then:

4a. If the user hasn't clicked the edit button then: it automatically updates the URL key field with the URL key supplied in the ajax

4b. If the user has clicked the edit button then: a form error next to the input appears saying that the URL key is taken and within that error is suggests the URL key returned by the ajax as alternative (the user can click said URL key within the error to automatically choose that one)

The URL key isn't reserved by the ajax and upon form submission the usual validation should still apply.

The Group controller uses the genshi module where it may be better for it to use Markup() in the template.

See ​https://github.com/okfn/ckan/pull/117/files#r1524863

The language dropdown in Internet Explorer 7 behaves oddly. Essentially I think the problem is with the way that the dropdown decides to go into "drop-up mode" (e.g there aint enough screen space below the initial state so it has to drop up).

Users should be able to log in using either their username, or their email address, both of which are unique.

Will require a change to UsernamePasswordAuthenticator? in ckan.lib.authenticator.py and possible a useful User.by_email in the user model if it doesn't already exist.

3. Uploading a file behaves counter-intuitively (I would suggest wrongly).

When adding a new resource by uploading a file, I select a file called say create-group.png. I expect the following to happen:

• the pathname of that file is filled in the box;
• nothing is actually uploaded till I hit 'add' (confirming that I've got the right file etc).

Instead of this,

• the file is immediately and, seemingly, irrevocably uploaded;
• the box is filled with a mysterious URL (​https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/ckan-demo ...)
• the mysterious URL is so long I can't even see the final element, which is my file name.

It should be possible to pass userid/username and api key and obtain a response from CKAN for external services that use CKAN auth. Those services shouldn't be talking to the DB directly.

Start a Java library for interacting with the CKAN Action API.

Currently requires support for Groups, Tags, Resources, and Search.

An example app would be very useful.

Some files that might be uploaded as resources on a dataset, such as some image formats, already contain metadata. For example some jpeg files might contain Exif ( ​http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchangeable_image_file_format ) data.

[ ] Obtain list of embedded metadata 'standards'

[ ] Where the metadata is available it should be added as extra fields on the resource that is uploaded.

[ ] HTML?

[ ] Image formats (exif/gif etc)

[ ] PDF

[ ] Eventually consider ...

[ ] MS Office documents

Unless explicitly told by the source web server the dataproxy should not assume that the content it has can be encoded as UTF-8. Even though the chars from 128 - 255 overlap an attempt to decode some byte array as utf8 will fail whenever a latin1 char whose bitpattern has the MSB set.

This will mean that the UTF8Recoder can be more rigid in its acceptance of data, Postel aside.

You configure the extension with some RSS and/or Atom feeds, it automatically reads items from these feeds and makes them available in the template context, you write a custom template to e.g. display 'news' items from a Wordpress blog on your front page.

This extension might be simpler and less fragile than ckanext-wordpresser, and also more generally useful.

Details

• Mark Pilgrim's Universal Feed Parser might be useful for reading the feeds

• Feed items should probably be cached somewhere

Suggested

• The news item 'widget' should be wrapped in a known class so that it can be styled easily regardless of the format of any HTML entry.

• For non-HTML formatted items (Atom should tell you the content type of the entry) maybe we should have a template for rendering each item along with any enclosures that it might reference

• Caching is pretty crucial and should probably obey the ttl of the feed.

As a User I want an image generated for my related item automatically so that I do not have to take picture myself and upload it somewhere

Implementation: (?) Use phantomjs or something like ​http://snapito.com/ Investigate for 1.8, will be needed for TDH Oct.

Requirements

In the data hub plugin we require the ability to differentiate users between those that have paid for a service, and those that haven't. The distinction isn't boolean as there may be levels of service for paid users, so it may be that we need a 'type' of user where there are various grades of 'paid' which are likely to be strings (specific to the data hub).

Required interface

Once changes have been made to the user schema, for a given user we want to be able to:

• determine if they have a paid or a free account, and
• get a string name of the type of paid account.

Care should be taken to ensure that the 'paid' status of the user cannot be set through the API and only by the datahub plugin.

User Stories

User stories related to the management, setting and changing of a user's payment level, as well as historical information on payments should be done as part of the work that includes actually allowing purchases. For now it is adequate that we can manually control these things through paster commands.

Payments types should be linear as I don't believe for this type of service a pick-and-mix modular model would work well. Organizations will inherit the payment level of their owner, so currently there is no requirement for it to affect organizations at all.

• As a sysadmin I would like to be able to use a paster command to manually set a user's payment level, or remove it entirely.

• As a sysadmin I would like to be able to run a paster command to view a list of users who have a payment plan, grouped by the plan that they have.

• As a sysadmin I would like to be able to use the API to change the payment status of a specific user through user_create and user_update. This shouldn't be available to anybody else.

• As a user, and only if I have one, I'd like to see my current payment level on my user profile page.

if the user tries to upload a file they will get "Failed to get credentials for storage upload. Upload cannot proceed"

Maybe add a test for it this time, this bug has appeared and reappeared before

We should simplify upload and storage of files, initially only to local storage with archiver eventually being fixed to archive data externally. WIP pad is ​http://ckan.okfnpad.org/uploads

Simplifying uploads

Currently uploads are too painful/difficult/fiddly to use and/or configure. We want to simplify uploads so that they are done directly to the CKAN server, without support for remote services (S3 etc) and/or the dependencies it introduces.

We want to fix:

• File uploads themselves
• Storage of uploaded files
• Notification of the upload to other components

File uploads

Things file upload should do:

• Allow sysadmin to disable
• Allow auth'ed users to upload
• Store whatever they send on disk, and store DB entry linking the file to the person
• When creating the resource, the user should be able to choose from all of the files they have uploaded but not yet associated with a resource. This will allow for bulk upload and then a delayed association. Whenver a user creates a resource they either upload a file now, or see previously uploaded files.

Can we do the upload asynchronously and then associate the 
uploaded key with the resource before the save ? What happens 
if the user tries to submit before asymc upload finishes ? Should 
we delay them?

The upload workflow should look like...

1. File upload should be a straightforward file upload with normal auth checks and normal processing of the posted data.
2. 1. When called via ajax then the ID of the newly created file should be returned,
   2. When called via WUI then it should also be given the url to redirect to after the file upload has been handled - the id will be passed as a query param.
3. The resource save should check whether it has a file id and in that case updates the file object to point to the resource.

This should enable:

• Separate file upload into a user's temporary store, either individually or as a batch.
• Creating resources and simply choosing from previously uploaded, unassigned files
• Adding files/data to a resource after the fact.

File storage

File storage should be local to the CKAN install, and not a remote service. Any archiving to remove storage providers should be outside of the main request.

File storage should:

• allow moving data, a sysadmin should be able to move the storage root and change configuration and have the system continue running (i.e. don't store absolute paths).
• provide maintainability, it should be easy to determine which old files are not associated with resources and thus can be cleaned up.
• allow for collection of information (i.e. estimate of storate space used)
• check whether there is enough space and handling the conequences cleanly
• ensure files to be written only underneath its own root folder, checks should be made after any path generation that the file begins with the location of the file storage.
• Have a configurable maximum accepted blob size during upload.
• Should store what meta-data was provided with the upload, such as mimetype.

Somewhere in the DB we should store ...

Generating paths should try and separate the files, perhaps based on username of the owner, or some other mechanism to avoid a single folder full of files.

Notifications

We need to make sure that it is possible to notify other components within the system that an upload has taken place, or at least make it easy for them to be notified. The primary use case for this is to notify the component that will translate/upload certain formats to the data store.

We could do this based on the post-upload update to the file model (i.e. when we record the total received size of the file).
