The layout of the editing section for extra fields breaks when a field name is slightly too long. Field names jump over to the right. See ​http://ckan.net/package/edit/dbpedia for examples.

We need to allow plugins to store information.

Each plug-in should have its own name space and allow any data to be set.

There are two options.

• make a key value table in ckan that will hold random information.
• use redis (or other key value store)

If in sql suggest schema of form:

• (namespace, obj_id, key, value [, value_type])
• value is json

The widget for tag autocompletion is broken in various ways.

For example, if I edit a package that is tagged "music", and just tab through the form fields to get to the Author field, then the widget changes to "industrial-music" as I tab through it.

Or if the tag is "foo bar" and I hit alt-right to jump to the end of the text field (with the intent of adding a third tag), then the contents change to "foo barbecue".

This will comprise of the following steps.

• model migration.
• simplify revisioning
• Remove any sqlalchemy relations from groups.
• change logic functions

cset:4b59ab34137d ckan/logic/action/get.py:

-            isopen = model.Package.get_license_register()[license_id].isopen()
-            result_dict['isopen'] = isopen
+            try:
+                isopen = model.Package.get_license_register()[license_id].isopen()
+                result_dict['isopen'] = isopen
+            except KeyError:
+                # TODO: create a log message this error?
+                result_dict['isopen'] = False 

This change hides problems with the license server and returns potentially incorrect values for openness.

This has been noted as 'temporary fix' but seems to be forgotten about, since it has been merged to default and gone into release 1.4.3.

I suggest the licenses are cached (I thought this was already the case when CKAN first requests them after start-up?). I suggest failure would return 503.

The right hand side of ​thedatahub.org login screen is a little confusing:

    Not a member?

    Join CKAN to contribute packages under your own name.

     - Register
     - Reset your password
     - Privacy Policy

Suggested improvements to make:

• replace CKAN with thedatahub.org
• in general, edit the copy to be more inviting
• remove "Reset your password" from that bubble
• move the privacy policy link to somewhere less prominent

Clicking any of the links to a resource page in the dataset viewer seems to load the page and immediately start downloading the resource file.

For example, being here: ​http://test.ckan.net/dataset/europeana-lod and clicking on any of the links to the first resource.

Need instructions on the group page to tell people they need to login to create a group. Someone must have deleted this.

If you edit your user name, the number of revisions you made returns to 0. This is because in the Revision object, the user's name is stored, rather than the user's ID.

rgrp: We can reconnect that pretty easily (and have a longer term solution that involves not using the usernames but the userids in in the Revision objects so we don't hvae this problem in future!)

Because of #1514 we should just disable name changing, until #1514 is done.

as title.

We have 150 odd branches (git branch -a) - most of them old - we should prune them. At very least, branches that have been merged in should be deleted. Look at old branches that haven't been merged in and wonder why.

May be of some use:

git branch --merged
git branch --no-merged

Reasons: more people familiar with Git, bigger Open Source community on Github.

Keeping track of the move here: ​https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AvCDqUH8jVN8dGNVNEpXLWk3UTlJZXhFMjBPbXVtRmc&hl=en_GB#gid=0

The log-in page says "Login using Open ID" and gives instructions for signing up. YET this is only available to users who've already added openid to their account. If you have not done this and then sign-in via OpenID (which is successful from the OpenID end) then you are told "Login failed. Bad username or password." in a flash message.

Proposed solution (i don't know if this is possible):

• When you log-in for the first time via OpenID, it doesn't actually log you in in CKAN. It just sends you to the 'Create User' page with the OpenID field pre-filled, and puts up a flash message "This OpenID account is not yet registered on thedatahub. Please complete your details.". This allows you to complete the registration and logs you in, and allows you to log-in directly with OpenID in the future.

Alternatives:

• Just change the error message to be 'You need to register in CKAN first. Quote your OpenID in the registration form to use it in future.'
• Remove OpenID altogether

On some occasions (apparently random), the documents indexed in a specific SOLR core get mixed with different site_ids.

E.g: We look for all documents in the testing.iatiregistry.org core, faceted by site_id. We would expect all documents to have site_id = iati_testing, but some of them have site_id = iatiregistry.org

​http://okfn-solr.fry-it.com:8080/solr/testing.iatiregistry.org/select?indent=on&version=2.2&q=*:*&fq=+state:active&facet=true&facet.field=site_id

<lst name="facet_fields">
<lst name="site_id">
<int name="iati_testing">265</int>
<int name="iatiregistry.org">255</int>
</lst>
</lst>

If we compare one of the records which disappeared from the "iati_testing" site_id in both the production and testing SOLR cores of the server, the records are exactly the same, including the indexed_ts property:

​http://okfn-solr.fry-it.com:8080/solr/iatiregistry.org/select?indent=on&version=2.2&q=id:97d1ab0d-b203-4757-8f4e-a0c84d2f759f&facet=true&facet.field=site_id

​http://okfn-solr.fry-it.com:8080/solr/testing.iatiregistry.org/select?indent=on&version=2.2&q=id:97d1ab0d-b203-4757-8f4e-a0c84d2f759f&facet=true&facet.field=site_id

Note that the response from the URLs shown may vary, as the testing site could have been reindexed.

metadata_created seems to be returning the date of the earliest revision (for all packages), rather than the earliest revision for a specific package.

Superticket: #1343

Creation of accounts from OpenID causes large number of problems:

• No guarantee of other profile info
• Poor username (just from openid)

We therefore will:

1. Require creation of user account via register (no auto-creation of accounts via openid)
   • sidebar of register page should point to login page rather than openid signin

2. Permit association of an openid with an account ...
   • How: paste in your openid url (requires change to edit form to have this)
     • won't work for google with their weird openid urls
   • [future] Nicer way is to have login via openid while logged in (which association then happening in background)

3. Migration (for 1+2):
   • (?) Generate decent usernames for all existing accounts
   • As this is nontrivial suggest instead we allow editing of usernames (by account owner and sysadmins). This is useful in its own right and is a reasonable 80/20 solution.
     • This does present the problem of re-associating commits with the new username. Best solution to this would be to switch revisions to point to userid rather than username. See #1534

4. [optional] Change display_name to always be username
   • Change My Account to Username at top right of all pages (once we know usernames are short ...)
     • could do this straight away by truncating long usernames (e.g. truncate at 20 chars ...)
     • Also should we lose the icon?

It is not currently possible to assign or remove groups by adding or removing their group name from the "groups" list on the REST API. This should be allowed, as it is easier than first adding a package and then editing each group it must belong to.

Since we now require email addresses, it's sensible to request users' gravatars to add a little flavour to their user profile (and, potentially, other places eg. comments threads?)

[Reopened: Additional] Use gravatars in the HTML generated by helpers.py to create lists of users. Eg. on user/list and dataset/history.

While integrating the new theme and making a large number of UX tweaks, I've allowed the CSS file to bloat out of control with some very specific rules and subtle hacks, as well as a couple of clearfix <div> objects in the markup which isn't really good practice.

In general we want a logical CSS structure which is as easy to modify as possible. You should not find yourself being overwritten by highly specific rules all the time!

Actions

1. Clean up css
2. Add a config option ckan.template_head_end - arbitrary string inserted at end of <head> tag so you can add custom css etc (may also want to update theming docs to reflect possibility of using this)
3. (While we're at it): Add ckan.template_footer_end config option to deployment.ini_template. (This already exists, we just haven't told anybody)
4. The /users index page isn't linked anywhere. Clean it up and link it in the footer next to Groups etc.
5. package/new, package/edit, group/new and group/edit all include their forms differently. Use h.literal in all cases.
6. Fix the padding on minornavigation.

Background

David Read sent me the following as background:

22. basic theming is described here: ​http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/theming.html

Deep customisation of the templates is done by creating an extension, with this as a template: ​https://bitbucket.org/okfn/ckanext-exampletheme/overview

That's what Augusto and the Brazilians have done ​http://alpha.dados.gov.br/dados/ and their code is here: hg clone ​http://dev.dados.gov.br/codigo/dev/tema-ckan <snip> Another thing of interest was us becoming compatible with Wordpress themes last December. Richard Pope worked with Rufus on this. I believe the base theme is 'twentyten' and I'm guessing that one would swap that css file with another to change theme, but I don't know. I don't know if this feature has been dropped since then. ​http://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/ckan-dev/2010-December/000073.html

(instead of using the prompt) - needed for deployment

While playing with the authorization groups, trying to design tests, I found that it was necessary to log in as two different users with two different browsers. Often actions of one user would cause server errors in the other user's browser.

I don't have a reproducible test case, but it happens fairly often so it shouldn't be too difficult to get one.

Summarise final set of requirements for this and finish development and test. Estimated 10 working days.

Can we finish this ready for release on data hub and CKAN Hosted.

ckanext-example needs updating for CKAN 1.5:

• theme changes
• new forms

About: 'ckanext-exampletheme' was created in Spring 2011 as an example CKAN extension that showed how to customise the look & operation of CKAN. This moved to github and renamed 'ckanext-example'.

Is testing complete and ready for release?

How much effort will this be to be ready to use?

Estimate 2 weeks for someone to finish and test.

Unsure what needs to happen here. Need to list outstanding tasks and implement.

Currently when you log in it says "logged-in". Most sites show your user-name and this is helpful when you have more than one account or human using the computer.

Plan to migrate from mercurial git

• Convert from mercurial to git
  • Map named branches to normal branches
  • Also, if possible map usernames for RP: rgrp <​http://rufuspollock.org/> (mercurial) -> rgrp <rufus.pollock@…>
• Place at ​http://github.com/okfn/ckan (can delete current repo there as an out of date mirror)

Process:

• Do trial run
• Announce conversion date / time
• Require everyone to have pushed all outstanding changes at that time
• Do conversion
• Test
• Announce on list and ckan.org/

Once we have storage, make the data available in the following ways:

• Now have a cached_url field can show in the frontend ...
• Add a [<a href="${cached_url}">cached</a>] link to right of real url on resource listing on dataset page.
• On resource page: will not add it yet.
  • At the moment no clear place to pu this given nice big download button (could put in list of items on left but that does not seem right and note that it will turn up in big list of info at bottom)
• Add test (?)
• Deploy

Why: current stable version of sqlalchemy. geoalchemy stuff required 0.7 and likely that some other things will require it soon.

Probably requires work on vdm ​https://bitbucket.org/okfn/vdm

NB: should have discussion before making 0.7 the default required version in CKAN core.

ordering on homepage by name instead of group count

When you do a search like this:

http://thedatahub.org/api/search/package?q=tauberer+census&all_fields=1

the "extra" fields (e.g. "triples", "shortname") get missed off the results. The docs say it should be a "full record" and I don't see any reason why this is missed off.

This is a problem because search all_fields is the only way for clients and front-ends to get packages in bulk. They end up (like lodcloud) doing thousands of requests to get packages individually.

The full record is:

Can this be released as a standard CKAN feature?

ckanext-moderatededits requires an old and possibly development version of CKAN. It would be good to update it for later CKAN versions.

According to the README, you need CKAN from branch feature-1141-moderated-edits-ajax but the changelog suggests this branch went into version 1.4.2. So it possibly works with 1.4.2 and 1.4.3(.1). But CKAN 1.5 has revamped templates, so the genshi stream filters definitely don't work.

BTW history_ajax/read_ajax calls have been deprecated in CKAN since 1.5.2a and will need fixing up to use the Action API too as part of this.

The CKAN Google Analytics extension has been updated to work with the latest version of CKAN, could make for a nice blog post.

Can ping John Glover in January for any details required.

Key link is: ​http://thedatahub.org/analytics/dataset/top though this should probably move to be under stats (e.g. ​http://thedatahub.org/stats/usage)

Ratings were disabled approximately a year ago because:

• Unclear purpose and UX. What did ratings tell you? How useful were they?
• Spamming (esp by bots: you could submit an anonymous rating via a GET request which caused problems)

Both problems are solvable and it would be nice to have this feature reinstated.

• Purpose: can make this more purposable by limiting to logged in users (or at least distinguishing logged in from non-logged in users)
  • Even better we could allow ratings to be made public (I'm interested in what someone else I respect finds important)
• Spamming: limit to logged in users and / or use AJAX over an API to submit ...

Super: #1594

From Richard Cyganiak on the CKAN Discuss list:

Regarding the fifth star (is the dataset linked to others?). This cannot be automatically determined just by looking at the format. It either requires inspection of the actual data, or information about links in the metadata. As you're probably aware, we've established conventions for recording information on data links in CKAN [1], as part of the work of the lodcloud group on the Data Hub. Link information is captured for hundreds of datasets. I would claim that we have the majority of four-star datasets covered there, and hence you can determine if they should get the fifth star by checking for the presence of a links:xxx field.

Simple embeddable widget for use on 3rd party sites showing dataset counts for a given search query. Have a specific version just for groups.

• Simple group count widget in JS for embedding in wordpress and elsewhere
  • Requested by several people (e.g Guo Xu from Econ working group). Already have something like this in CKAN JS for doing an embeddable search box.
• All you need to do is do a dataset query over the API e.g. ​http://thedatahub.org/api/search/dataset?groups=economics and then embed in some html!

Estimate: 30m (for someone who knows their jquery).

(Editing a dataset) If the second resource contains any validation error then it says "Resources: Package resource(s) incomplete" and "Resource 1:".

Its a pain to see the difference between branches as there are normally a lot of po file transaction. Make the default be see that they have changed without actually show the diffs themselves.

As part of #1574 we decided that it would be better for webstore (and future external services) to be able to authenticate simply with CKAN-Core.

Currently webstore access the CKAN database to obtain the key for the user but it would be better if this connection was not so tightly bound and that webstore used an API as any other external service might.

Need to discuss further with dread
