#1521 enhancement zephod shevski ckan-sprint-2012-01-23 closed fixed [super] Groups UI and UX improvements in v1.6 from Cygri

Various UX and UI improvements to groups.

Etherpad: http://ckan.okfnpad.org/feature-1521-groups-ux

Improved groups

From Richard Cyganiak.

This is a set of proposals to make the groups feature more powerful. As a result, currently separate CKAN instances such as http://ie.ckan.net/ could be turned into a simple group on the Data Hub without losing their separate identity.

  • Group homepages: Make the group pages more attractive and welcoming as homepages. The main Data Hub homepage does a great job at this now – can the group pages be made more like that? They're quite uninformative and bland right now.
  • Subdomains for groups: Enable subdomains such as ie.thedatahub.org as aliases for thedatahub.org/group/ireland
  • Search within the group: Have a big search box that searches just within the group on the group page, with a look like on http://thedatahub.org/dataset
  • Have an Add a dataset to this group link on the group page, perhaps in the sidebar.
  • Navigation within the group: Have some more navigation starting points on the group page, e.g., the Tags + Resource Format sidebar from http://thedatahub.org/dataset
  • Group documentation: Add the ability to add more “About this group” text, or pages like “FAQ” and “Extra field conventions”.
    • The only place where one can currently put group-specific text is before the dataset list. Putting much text there is bad as it moves the datasets below the fold.
    • Can the top-level sections of a group's description be automatically turned into separate pages that are linked from the sidebar? With headlines About, Frequently Asked Questions and How to get involved, we'd then get three links in the sidebar that point to datahub.org/group/ireland/about, datahub.org/group/ireland/frequently-asked-questions, datahub.org/group/ireland/how-to-get-involved
      • RP: WONTFIX this is being considered for future (generally useful) but cost/benefit here was low particularly as it wasn't clear what optimal implementation was.

Additional

  • Display members of a group as well as admins (if less than 10? If more than 10 display count only ...?)
  • Better group index page (sort by number of dataset, allow searching ...) - #1403
  • #1597 Tag search, filtered by group
    • RP: not worth it in terms of benefit/cost IMO

Steps

  • "Add Dataset" button on action bar
    • Make it a dropdown? -> New Dataset / Existing Dataset
    • Redirect Add Existing -> Edit
    • Check permissions
  • Expandable "about this group" box
  • Implement simplest search-this-group box
    • turn the list of datasets into a dynamic list of search results
      • pagination
    • Matching set of facets in the sidebar (matches 'real' search page)
      • Deleteable, displayed facets

Nice-To-Have

  • Get rid of the old group_package_show action (confirm with team)
  • Tabbed "about this group" box (extract headers?)
  • Scrollable group members widget in the sidebar

#1525 enhancement icmurray icmurray ckan-v1.7 closed fixed [super] DGU package form refactor

Form refactor. New create/edit package form wizard for DGU.

Etherpad: http://ckan.okfnpad.org/dgu-package-form

Tasks:

  • #1526 : Simple one-page form.
  • #1527 : Tab-ify the form using JS. No validation between steps.
  • #1541 : Setup server for the DGU form-refactor.
  • #1537 : Package create form wizard
  • #1538 : Store partially-filled in package form data as a draft.
  • #1539 : Package forms auto-save

How the rest of the work is carried out is up for discussion, as it depends on the approach taken. Whether to continue with validation using AJAX queries, or whether to break the form down into multi pages. Google doc outlining design(s)

#1532 defect dread ckan-sprint-2011-12-19 closed fixed Registration with OpenID has misleading error message

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

#1537 enhancement icmurray icmurray ckan-v1.7 closed fixed Package create form wizard

Create the form wizard for the package-new form.

Each section of the form will be a separate page as this was decided to be simpler than the alternative of making AJAX calls for validation at each stage. (*)

  • separate pages for each section of the form
  • validation carried out at each stage against the whole schema. Each section/page declares a list of schema keys that need to validate for that section to validate, and thus move onto the next section.
  • no draft saving to be performed in this ticket.

(*) - although the javascript alternative will probably provide better UX (each step would require a page-load in the wizard approach), it was decided that:

  • with the javascript approach it would be harder to test the workflow.
  • with the javascript approach there would be additional work displaying validation correctly. Although not that complicated, it was felt to add another point of failure.
  • the multi-page wizard is quicker and easier to implement, and if it provided poor UX, then the javascript approach would be used instead.
  • the multi-page wizard wouldn't preclude a javascript-tabbing create-form for other cases (where the wizard workflow wasn't such a good match, eg on the hedatahub.org)
  • the multi-page wizard wouldn't preclude a javascript-tabbing edit-form.

#1553 defect aron.carroll dread demo phase 5 closed fixed Upload handles non-logged in user badly

When you install ckanext-store (Storage extension) then CKAN displays 'Upload a file' button in the dataset/resource edit tab.

If you are not logged in, then this feature doesn't work, but there is nothing to indicate this. The button should be disabled.

Furthermore, it lets you think you are starting the upload process, the spinner spins, it says 'Uploading...' and stays like that for a long while.

This is a problem CKAN 1.4.3(ish) - 1.5.1 (current version) when you install the current ckanext-storage.

#1574 enhancement ross ross ckan-v1.7 closed fixed [super] Storage changes including automated save to Webstore

Allow uploading of files to push the data into webstore. Initially we were going to suggest changes to ckanext-storage but after further analysis we arrived at the conclusion that this should be implemented by ckanext-archiver as it already handles archiving of data from various sources and would be the best place to 'archive' to webstore.

  1. A user wants to upload a file to CKAN, and so chooses the file upload option as they do currently with ckanext-storage. The file upload itself should be handled by this code internal to core (see #1608) but still using ofs [5d]
  1. The user is provided the link to the file as currently.
  1. The archiver's update task will check configuration to determine if it should upload some mime-types (tabular formats) to webstore. Configuration should also determine where webstore is. (see #1609) [5d] - took 6
  • It should be stored in webstore using {username}/{resource-id} where {username} is the name of the user uploading the original file.
  1. The archiver will continue to move the file into permanent storage as per current practice.

Questions:

  • Why do this?
    • tiny extension with few dependencies - and really nice to have out of the box
    • trial for doing this on larger scale
  • Do we keep as extension (even if in core)?
    • Ans: Yes, keep as extension because:
      • Already set up that way
      • Cleaner
      • Easier to disable / enable
  • How do we integrate with main them (e.g. have stats link)
    • Ans: not sure (this is part of more general issue of how we update theme for varying changes elsewhere). Best answer is to have some widgetization in theme.
  • Hide ratings section (at least until we reinstate ratings #1598)
    • Ans: no, let's not bother (and having ratings there encourages us to do #1598 and/or find out whether people are interested in ratings)

  • Add star rating to resource view page, along with a way of displaying the reason for the rating and tips to improve. Should be unobtrusive.
  • Fix the table at http://thedatahub.org/qa/dataset/broken_resource_links - URLs should be truncated to a fixed not-too-long length and the other fields line up (eg by using a table)~
  • Handle 404s by showing that 'we think this resource is 404ing'.
  • Handle the absence of QA data on a resource (currently nothing is displayed. Maybe that's fine.
  • Do we need to integrate the 'reason for rating' string into the UI?

Next Steps:

  • Use db dump of thedatahub.org for final testing.

#1590 enhancement amercader amercader closed fixed Create customized feeds for the IATI Registry

We need a way to track changes on the registry (datasets edited or updated), globally and on a per country/publisher/etc. basis. RSS and Atom feeds are really popular, and after closing #191 and #1498 crating them from the search results should be fairly easy.

The following URLs are pretty self-explanatory:

http://localhost:5000/feed/registry.rss

http://localhost:5000/feed/country/AF.rss
http://localhost:5000/feed/publisher/worldbank.rss
http://localhost:5000/feed/organisation_type/10.rss

As we need to implement custom wrappers for countries, publishers, etc, we might as well offer a fully customizable feed, e.g.:

http://localhost:5000/feed/custom.rss?q=activity_count:[* TO 100]
http://localhost:5000/feed/custom.rss?publishertype=primary_source

Apart from the actual feeds, there will be a small amount of work at the template level to add the links to the suitable pages (and maybe a generic page showing all available feeds)

#1593 enhancement icmurray amercader ckan-sprint-2012-04-16 closed fixed [super] Create feeds from search results

Recent changes (see #191 and #1498) have made really easy to get search results ordered chronologically, and creating RSS or Atom feeds from them is relatively easy.

Feeds are extremely popular and there are several tools for consuming them, so it would be a great way to allow users to follow datasets related with their topics of interest.

Apart from the general feed with changes on the whole instance, other different "pre-set" feed endpoints could be implemented. The most obvious choices for custom feeds could be groups and tags:

http://<ckan_server>/feed/group/{id}.{format:rss|atom}
http://<ckan_server>/feed/tag/{id}.{format:rss|atom}

These could be shown on the group/tag page, both on the <head> section, so browsers can autodiscover them, and on the UI, with a message like "Subscribe to this group/tag".

Another powerful option is to have a custom feed builder that accepts the same parameters as the search page, so users can subscribe to whatever query they are interested on

http://<ckan_server>/feed/custom.{format:rss|atom}?res_format=api%2Fsparql
http://<ckan_server>/feed/custom.{format:rss|atom}?q=tags:animal*

On this case a message "Subscribe to these search results" would appear.

Note that a lot of work on this front needs to be done for the IATI registry project (see #1590)

Other tickets related:

  • #1592: metadata_modified and metadata_created are not included in the search results, so an extra query for each package is needed right now.

#1597 enhancement dread ckan-sprint-2012-01-23 closed fixed Tag search - filter by group

I want to browse tags, but filtered for a particular group. Currently our tag API doesn't allow for filtering by group.

This is important for improving groups as communities within a site #1521. It would be easy to do this by adding an option to filter by a group. BUT are there any other use cases that would warrant a more complete faceted tag search?

--

BTW I can currently draw a tag cloud for a group - I can get the top tags used in a group like this:

curl http://thedatahub.org/api/action/package_search -d '{"q":"groups:country-ca", "facet.field":"tags", "rows":"0"}'

but it only contains the top 20 tags.

We already have first pass of Data Preview that was done as part of #1357. This is about v2 of this. Two main components:

  • A new version of the separate Data Explorer library (now called Recline Data Explorer) - #1446 Est: 10-15d
    • Why:
      • Cleaner, backbone based solution.
      • Provides editing support if wanted.
      • Collaboration with Max Ogden
  • Integrate this into CKAN (into resource view page) - see #1630 Est: 1d
  • Improvements to Data Viewer / Previewer system in CKAN itself - Est: 2-3d
    • (Update Data Preview-er (View-er) to support images ...)

Multi-language:

  • dataset and resource metadata (and other objects such as groups?)
  • Field values in taxonomy (e.g. country names - Eurovoc)
    • #1665 Research into Eurovoc
    • Display Taxonomy in different languages
  • Field values not in taxonomy (e.g. title & description)
    • Use extra fields e.g. _i18n_title_fr = Le data.
    • (If lots of fields would need translating then would consider having a new package for each language, linked together with PackageRelationships?. But I think it is just title and description (resource description etc. are so minor, not worth translating?), so using extra field better.)
  • EC extension (templates, form)
    • Currently the pot file is just for CKAN core. New pot file for CKAN core and this extension? Or separate ones for extensions?

#1623 enhancement dread dread ckan-sprint-2012-01-23 closed fixed Dump to exclude deleted objects

The database dump currently contains all Packages and their associated objects, even those that have been set to state=deleted. We should exclude these from the dump now.

Dump = paster db simple-dump-csv/json

reasoning

The dumps are designed for end-users to be able to run scripts on the mass of data. Since end-users don't see state=deleted packages then they shouldn't need them in the dump. In fact their presence in the dump probably confuses them.

Admins get the full database anyway in the backup pg_dump.

We only included them in the user dump because it was designed before use of state=deleted was established.

#1641 enhancement amercader amercader ckan-sprint-2012-01-23 closed fixed ckanext-archiver: Content-length header not reliable to check if resource has been modified

The download task in ckanext-archiver performs a HEAD request on the resource URL and checks if the "Content-Type" and "Content-Length" headers differ from the values stored to see if the resource needs to be updated [1].

The "Content-Length" header, although widely used, is not mandatory and some servers don't provide it, e.g.:

$ curl -I http://portfolio.theglobalfund.org/en/IATI/Activities?countryCode=AFG
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Cache-Control: private
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Content-Type: text/xml
Vary: Accept-Encoding

X-AspNet-Version: 4.0.30319
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2012 12:36:43 GMT

Also worth noting that requests, the python library that uses ckanext-archiver, sets an "Accept-Encoding: gzip" header by default, which depending on the configuration of the remote web server, may prevent the "Content-Length" server from being sent, e.g.:

$ curl -H "Accept-Encoding: gzip" -I http://iatistandard.org/published-temp/adb-activities.xml
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2012 12:12:46 GMT
Server: Apache
Last-Modified: Mon, 28 Nov 2011 15:55:35 GMT
Accept-Ranges: bytes

Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Type: application/xml

curl -I http://iatistandard.org/published-temp/adb-activities.xml
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Last-Modified: Mon, 28 Nov 2011 15:55:35 GMT
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 2686720
Vary: Accept-Encoding
Content-Type: application/xml

All this can lead to some resources never getting updated, and of course the size property of the resource not being set.

As we need to download the resource anyway, it would be better to check if the real length of the data has been modified (and store it).

#1651 enhancement johnglover dread closed fixed Explicit link mapper

In this commit https://github.com/okfn/ckan/commit/1772a5c John Glover set map.explicit=True in ckan/config/routing.py.

The reason this was done was to avoid links collecting parameters. e.g. if you were on page /dataset/{id}/resource/{resource_id} then by default all the links on that page generated by url_for (Routes) would include the id and resource_id parameters as well. To avoid this, you had to go through all the links and add id=None and resource_id=None to the url_for parameters.

When map.explicit was changed to True, the value of the controller, action, id and any parameters were no longer automatically carried over into the generated links for the page. So previously links within the same controller didn't need to specify the controller (for example), but now they did. So when we did this we also had to fix up links that weren't explicit:

John made the config change on 5/11/2011 which was merged to master https://github.com/okfn/ckan/commit/5a01e67 21/11/2011. The related fixes mentioned were in within the same week. This all went into release 1.5.1. The requirement

Note: all the other URLs in who.ini should not have the /sub/dir/ - it is just this one that doesn't take account of the mounting point.

We already have simple activity streams for groups that have new group or group updated events (see #1631). Smarter/more useful group activity streams would also contain the events for things related to the group: users, datasets, other groups, etc.

This should just mean using a more complex SQL query in the group_activity_list() logic function.

Things might get tricky when a user or dataset joins a group, this may show up as two events (the user or dataset was modified, and the group was modified). We may want to have two separate events for this (one to go in the user or dataset activity stream and one for the group), or maybe we just want one 'user/dataset joined group' event.

As groups need to be authorised in some cases, particularly publisher profiles, we need a field to denote how this is managed.

We should add an 'approval_status' field that will be used to denote its status. By default this will be "approved" but this will allow us to override it with a "pending" or "denied" status. The latter should also change the main status of the Group.

#1674 enhancement ross ross ckan-sprint-2012-02-06 closed fixed Test auth logic hooks for publisher profile

Super #1669

Test all of the new auth logic hooks for publisher profile to make sure they work as expected. Also make sure that we have a test to compare the naming of the core auth funcs with the profile hooks (so we can see what may have changed in one but not the other).

#1678 enhancement amercader amercader ckan-v1.8 closed fixed Make synchronous search the default behaviour

Right now you need to explicitly load the synchronous_search plugin in your ini file, when this is probably the behaviour that all users expect by default. We could keep a config flag to deactivate it, but synchronous search should be the default behaviour.

#1681 enhancement ross ross closed fixed Core storage document

Document all of the changes and usage for #1574 so that we can mark it 'done done'.

Make sure we document any setup issues/processes and the settings.py setup required for CKAN so that Mark can announce next week and it should be easily deployable/testable.

Internal (perhaps in README somewhere or wiki): how does process work, where does data end up and in what order etc

External: here's how to configure it and here's what you get ... (goes in main sphinx docs)

#1683 defect dread dread ckan-sprint-2012-01-23 closed fixed Dataset search results - last item out of order

On each page of package search results, all the items are neatly sorted apart from the last item of the page. SOLR gets the sorting of the results incorrect.

This is a known issue: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1777 affecting SOLR 1.4 only (which comes with Ubuntu 10.04)

It is highlighted in CKAN test ckan/tests/functional/test_pagination.py:TestPaginationPackage of commit 39096ed54bda86d043521b08b2e14fc5e283a0ff which fails most of the time it is run (passes intermittently).

#1688 enhancement dread dread ckan-sprint-2012-02-06 closed fixed API for changing the permissions on an object

We need an API for changing the authorization (permissions) on a model object.

This was neglected in #1253 because of various changes to authz were looming. But six months later it still hasn't been done.

Suggest this is just moving _add_user_object_role from ckan/lib/base.py to the logic layer, but no doubt it will be more complicated.

Estimate: 3 days

#1693 defect ross ross closed fixed register_pluggable_behaviour should not be in routing

We should try and move register_pluggable_behaviour into environment and out of routing as it is causing import issues when using simple search.

These functions already take a map and so they should be fine any time after the call to make_map

#1694 enhancement seanh seanh ckan-sprint-2012-02-06 closed fixed Add quick functional test(s) for activity streams HTML rendering

The activity streams feature is already thoroughly tested via the logic layer and API calls, but there needs to be a quick test of the rendering code, e.g. fetch a user's page (thus testing that ckan doesn't crash while rendering it) and then assert that the expected activity streams HTML is in the fetched HTML.

#1696 defect johnglover johnglover ckan-sprint-2012-02-06 closed fixed Maintain backwards compatibility with older way of creating custom forms

To maintain backwards compatibility, the package controller (new/edit) should check to see if the controller has a package_form variable defined, and if so render the form pointed to by this variable before calling the new self._package_form() function.

This behaviour is now deprecated however.
