#1380 enhancement zephod zephod ckan-sprint-2011-11-07 closed fixed Making customizing CSS easier

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:

  1. 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

#1381 enhancement amercader pudo ckan-sprint-2011-10-24 closed fixed Managing groups via package entity API

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.

#1385 enhancement dread dread closed fixed Resolve postgres permissions issues

Currently there is a problem because the docs guide us to set the sqlalchemy url to use 'localhost' i.e. loopback, whereas paster commands don't specify '-h localhost' so use unix sockets (you need to do 'sudo -u postgres'). These should be the same.

Also do we need to tell people to add a line to their postgres authentication config /etc/postgresql/8.4/main/pg_hba.conf to help things? Florian suggests: 

local   std         std                          md5

/etc/postgresql/8.4/main/pg_hba.conf

#1386 enhancement rgrp rgrp ckan-sprint-2011-10-24 closed fixed Disallow account creation via openid

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

  1. 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)
  1. 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
  1. [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?

#1387 defect toby johnglover ckan-v1.8 closed fixed Not specifying a protocol in dataset url causes broken link to be served on dataset view page

If a user enters a url with no protocol (eg: www.data.gov.uk) in the 'url' field of a dataset, a broken link is created on the view page.

CKAN should probably either put in a ​http:// if no protocol is given, or validation should fail.

#1388 defect dread ckan-backlog closed fixed etags caching on home page

AND

  1. whether signed in or not - #1373

BUT not latest revisions (which is what it was)

Or get rid of etag caching on this page and others?

#1395 defect seanh closed fixed "Import Error: cannot import name UnicodeMultiDict" when installing ckan from source

At the paster db init command when installing ckan from source I get the error "Import Error: cannot import name UnicodeMultiDict?" (happens with both ckan 1.4.2 and today's latest bleeding edge code, on Ubuntu 10.04.3).

UnicodeMultiDict? has been removed in a recent version of python-webob, and the pip install ... lucid_missing.txt causes a too-new version of python-webob to be installed into ckan's virtualenv (the new webob gets installed as a dependency of formalchemy).

I manually did pip uninstall webob and then ran paster db init again and it worked.

#1405 defect dread jonathan.gray@… ckan-sprint-2011-11-07 closed fixed You can add a package twice to a group

To reproduce (from Jonathan Gray):

  • I go to add an item to the group
  • As I type, I get autocomplete options (cool!)
  • When I click on one, it adds this, and copies the same autocomplete option in the box
  • When I click submit, it seems to add the item twice
  • On the main group page I think it just shows up once, but when I click edit it shows two identical boxes, both ticked - and the count includes two copies of the same item

Basically the problem is allowing the same package associated multiple times with a group.

This is an issue on CKAN 1.5b and probably earlier.

#1413 enhancement seanh shevski ckan-backlog closed fixed Ask users to 'add email address' when logged in

I'd like us to display a one-off banner that prompts users who log into thedatahub.org to go and update & their profile & fill in their email address (if we could do it just for those who don't have an email address, then even better) That is, once they log in, they see a banner which says: Please update your profile [here] and add your email address, so you can receive notifications, be able to reset your password and get updates

Then when we build notifications or if we decide to survey people, we can actually contact them. Email address should be required as standard

DR: Also, mention their Full Name too - v. useful for selecting correct user in group curation

#1415 enhancement thejimmyg nils.toedtmann ckan-sprint-2011-12-05 closed fixed Comments on current status of ckan deb packages

This is a scratch pad ticket with some comments on the current status of our ckan deb packages. I know that some of it is the deb packaging roadmap anyway, please forgive me if i mention them here again.

Rufus and me re-deployed some community ckan instances onto s022 (see ​http://trac.okfn.org/ticket/926). We followed the documentation ​http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/install-from-package.html

  • Deb package version number: the version of the deb package is "python-ckan 1309471251~149be76faabc+lucid-1", and it's hard to guess from there that it contains a ckan 1.4.2a
  • When is 1.4.3/1.5.x expected as deb package?
  • There was a bug in the DB upgrade script /usr/share/pyshared/ckan/migration/versions/029_version_groups.py (line 150) which looks like it was fixed 1.4.1==>1.4.2 but was nevertheless present in this deb package.
  • The current script /usr/bin/ckan-std-install
    • does not set the Apache ServerName? according to the $INSTANCE variable
    • automatically configures a ckan extension named after $INSTANCE
    • depends on local postgres
    • could be replaced with "/usr/bin/ckan-deploy --name=ckan-std --domain=ckan-std.localhost (see next point)
  • (i think this is exactly James' plan): have more generic deployment script /usr/bin/ckan-deploy as part of python-ckan which takes arguments like
    • --domain=cc.ckan.net
    • --aliases=$list-of-domains
    • --name=cc (defaults to "domain")
    • --no-db (does not configure a DB)
    • --sql-alchemy=$DB_CONFIG_STRING (also runs "paster --plugin ckan db upgrade --config")
    • --extension $list-of-extesions

#1425 enhancement zephod dread closed fixed Dataset delete button

From Jonathan gray:

At the moment to delete a package you have to go to 'state' and change from 'active' to 'deleted'.

For me this was not very obvious, and someone recently wrote to me about this too.

Its a small issue - but unless you know what 'state: active' refers to, its not obvious what this means, nor that this is where to go if you want to delete a package.

From UI perspective this could be replaced by either a trash can or some text that says 'delete', perhaps with some prompt that explains what happens when you delete a package - explaining that non-admins won't be able to see it, and how you purge, etc.

#1430 defect amercader ckan-sprint-2011-11-07 closed fixed Documents get mixed between SOLR cores

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

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

#1437 defect dread dread ckan-sprint-2011-11-07 closed fixed JSONP parameter in Action API

Action API needs JSONP support - be able to return responses encapsulated in a function of a supplied name. This is important for remote sites running javascript to interact with a CKAN site.

Specifying the callback parameter is the way we've achieved JSONP with the RESTful and Search APIs. It should work like this: 

curl http://test.ckan.net/api/action/package_show?callback=jsoncallback -d '{"id": "fd788e57-dce4-481c-832d-497235bf9f78"}'

Or maybe the callback should be specified in the payload in the context or data_dict?

(My understanding is that CORS is similar - when more browsers support it, can we drop JSONP?)

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.

kindly: there is a chance of course that the task is quicker than the plugin to get to the point where it needs to update the table.

kindly: so we may have to find a way to update the task status before we run the task.

  2. Pass in a context dict with "allow_partial_update":True
  3. Pass in a partial data dict containing only the package's ID and those fields that you want to update (e.g. title).

=> All of the package's resource will have their statuses changed to "deleted".

The "allow_partial_update" option should apply to the resource lists of packages, but it does not.

#1490 enhancement amercader amercader ckan-sprint-2011-12-05 closed fixed Standardize output from package listings coming from the logic layer

Right now, the two logic functions that return a list of packages (package_search [1] and group_packages_list [2])use custom functions to generate the output dict. That's suboptimal because:

  • The template function that renders the package listing (package_list_from_dict) could end up receiving different dicts.
  • Not all package properties are available at the template level (e.g extras, tags...). These can be really useful to customize the listing from an extension.

In general only the functions present in lib/dictization/model_dictize.py should be used to build the output of a logic function, in that case package_dictize. If necessary, they can be modified to include missing properties, like on this particular case the "isopen" property, needed by the template renderer.

#1491 defect seanh dread closed fixed Visible strings need internationalisation

Sean spotted that some strings need internationalising, such as flash messages. Generally all strings that appear on the web front-end should be internationalised.

Particular places that need i18n:

  • ckan/controllers/admin
  • ckan/lib/base

Note: there are some exceptions, such as in i18n.py, very obscure error messages and stuff that only appears on the API.

NB: there is a cost in making a string internationalisable (all our volunteers have to translate it), so we should not be too zealous. We should also look at the i18n/ckan.pot to see if any of the existing strings can be reused.

At some point the SOLR schema used by CKAN will need to be changed and the changes won't be always backward compatible, so we need a mechanism to support instances that use older versions of the schema. This process will involve:

  • Better documentation on how to deploy SOLR, as single instance or multicore
  • A convention on how to tag schema versions and SOLR endpoints to ensure that CKAN instances point to the correct SOLR URL.
  • (If possible) Checks in CKAN core that deal with different schema versions.

Step Zero

  • COMPLETELY REDESIGN resource edit process

Dataset Edit-Resources

  • Force format field to be lowercase
    • Modify backend to serve it up in that format
  • Subticket #978: Add extra fields to resources in Web UI
  • Fix display of large datasets (​http://test.ckan.net/dataset/europeana-lod)
  • When submitting forms with errors, open the correct resource pane.
  • No hint is given that the time format for a resource is in ISO, eg 2005-01-01T10:10:10
  • Resource description field to become the markdown editor we use everywhere else.

Dataset Settings

  • Subticket #1648: Clarify edit terminology
  • Merge Groups and Tags into main Settings section (no point having them on their own and most people will miss this).
  • Fix (i.e. allow / show) name editing on dataset edit.
    • Fix the slugify so it does not overwrite if i change title after fixing name.
    • Make slugify encourage people to use shorter names. Either by cutting off (not so good) or showing a warning and saying something like 'hey you may want to cut this down. Hit edit to customize the dataset name now'
  • Autocomplete the author/maintainer box (requires API extension?) [WONTFIX what? it's not like that field is linked to users of the site or anything]

Dataset View

  • Fix animation glitch in expanding description
  • Can we make the list of files look more like a table? Lose space between files? Lose rounded corners?
  • Verify that there are no more (none) placeholder <td> objects (i believe they've been refactored out)

Dataset Create

  • "Upload or link data files, APIs and other materials related to your dataset."
  • Include the description markdown editor again (keep it small)
  • Licence should maybe be restored
    • "(Don't worry if you don't know what your licence is)"
  • Show the log message field
    • Beautify
  • Pre-populate the log message field?
  • ? Show Home Page field when creating dataset [WONTFIX don't push it]
  • ? Do some Guerilla UX to see whether we need to Redirect to Resources directly after dataset creation? [WONTFIX doesnt make sense with new resource editor awesomeness]

User pages

  • Improvements to user page UX - 1d - #1396
  • Broken links for non-Gravatar use icons - 0.25d - #1719

Etc

  • Take before and after screenshots

#1516 task amercader amercader ckan-sprint-2011-12-19 closed fixed Update SOLR schema after 1.5.1 release and set up multicore SOLR instances if needed

CKAN 1.5.1 will introduce changes in the SOLR schema and functions to support multiple schema versions. Unfortunately the changes in the schema will be backwards incompatible so either both CKAN and SOLR are upgraded, or SOLR is configured as multicore, with one core for each schema. The solr cores would look like:

http://<solr-server>/solr/schema-<version>

Different scenarios:

  • Single SOLR instance used by only one CKAN site (e.g. SOLR running on the same machine):
    • Update CKAN
    • Update SOLR schema (symlink to suitable version in CKAN source)
    • Rebuild search index
  • Single SOLR instance used by multiple CKAN sites.
    • Update CKAN source
    • Configure SOLR as multicore, one core for version 1.2 and another for 1.3 of the schema (symlink to appropriate version in CKAN source)
    • Update solr_url on each of the CKAN sites with the suitable core
    • Rebuild search index

These are the SOLR and CKAN instances that need to be updated (Please add any missing ones):

  • Same machine as the CKAN site:
    • test.ckan.net
    • iati.test.ckan.net
    • data.gov.uk/ catalogue.data.gov.uk (confirm)

#1518 defect rgrp markbrough ckan-sprint-2011-12-19 closed fixed CKAN Upload fails if filename has spaces in it

E.g. uploading a file with spaces in it: OECD Monthly Exchange Rates.zip

Gives a 404 Not Found response to the following file: ​http://test.ckan.org/api/storage/metadata/2011-12-05T193046/OECD%20Monthly%20Exchange%20Rates.zip

The upload wheel keeps spinning and the user is not informed that the upload has failed.

Analysis: turns out that google storage (possibly s3 but not checked) replaces with ' ' in keys with '+' on upload. This breaks things because we try and look up metadata about upload using the filename/key we put in but of course that does not exist because google has changed name.

Fix is trivial: replace ' ' in keys / filenames with '-'.
