{22} Trac tickets (2647 matches)

When using the API, the apikey needs to be supplied in a header called 'Authorization'. Because some proxys / deployments use this header for other things, a configurable header was provided as an alternative, with default "X-CKAN-API-KEY".

Rufus suggests having *one* way for this. a) making this not configurable any more b) making X-CKAN-API-KEY the default

(keep Authorization allowed, but not documented, for backwards compatibility)

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

Finish any work out standing on web store preview extension to be able to package and release.

Ref James and I going through existing features and trying to mention any polishing that needed doing to get exiting features ready for release with projects such as CKAN hosted.

Estimate 2 days to finish dev and test.

David can you add any info needed here?

Estimated 4 weeks of Adria's time. I guess this will need to be broken down into more tickets. This feature is being requested by a number of potential customers and we have some ideas of requirements between Rufus and Jilly for this. This is the most popular new feature we talk about to new clients.

Is testing complete and ready for release?

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

Need to write custom harvesters for each client. Is it worth having one for data hub?

Looks like uploading a file with foreign characters fails due to encoding reasons.

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)

Super: #1594

From Richard Cyganiak on the CKAN Discuss list:

Besides considering the media type of resources, it would also make sense to check for the presence of a SPARQL endpoint. SPARQL endpoints are recorded for more than 300 datasets on the Data Hub using the pseudo-type "api/sparql". A few more are recorded with the format "SPARQL". I suggest that datasets with such resources should also be considered for the fourth star.

Suggestions from rgrp:

• Get rid of Roles, and replace them with direct assignment of actions, even though there are many actions, and extensions can add arbitrary ones.
• Debatable whether we should cut the number of actions to correspond to the three roles defined by the base system.
• Have a method of finding roles (or, in future, actions) relevant to a given protection object (e.g. FILE-UPLOAD(ER) not relevant to Packages)

(This ticket is split off from #1065)

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.

CKAN should be able to send email notifications to users.

Maybe have a notifications table in the db, and a server-side job that runs periodically and consumes rows from this table, mailing them to the users.

One thing that we may want to send users notifications of is activity stream events. So the activity streams code would have to add rows to the notifications table for the mailer job to consume. But remember that email notifications feature is separate from activity streams - we may want to send notifications of other things as well.

Need to implement (at least some of) #1634 before this can be implemented, in order to have something to send notifications about.

Analysis here: ​http://ckan.okfnpad.org/27

Similar to publicdata.eu, want to have themed areas such as finance, environment, census, etc and country tags

Jaakko Louhio reported that the wrong Routes version got installed during CKAN's package install.

He is using Ubuntu 10.04 and he believes it install Routes 1.12.3 instead of what we use which is 1.11.

There's a discrepency in repoze.who versions between the source and package installs:

• repoze.who - package 1.0.18 vs source 1.0.19
• repoze.who-friendlyform - package 1.0b3 vs source 1.0.8

We get a test failure [1] with the 1.0b3 version (from the ubuntu 10.04 python-repoze.who-plugins package). But we've not noticed any problems on s057 instances (br, no, ie etc) which have the package versions of repoze.who.

The reason the package install uses the earlier packaged versions rather than the ones we'd like is that repoze uses all sorts of horrendous import hacks, making it too difficult to put into our 'ckan-conflict' source package.

James suggests we 'do something horrible like dynamically patch repoze on CKAN import'.

[1] ​http://buildbot.okfn.org/builders/builder-ckan/builds/1371/steps/shell/logs/stdio ERROR: ckan.tests.functional.test_user.TestUserController?.test_user_create_unicode

ckanext-archiver currently has a settings file (and a default) and it should be passed in all relevant information from the context.

Remove all settings (ARCHIVE_DIR and MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH and others) and pass them in from CKAN.

Currently have 'active' and 'deleted' suggest also:

• 'draft'
• 'hidden'

(Do we need both). Also write out workflows related to these.

It's really bad to do from module import * and CKAN has a lot of them. I suggest a three-pronged approach:

1. Don't add any more of them.

2. When you're programming if you see an easy opportunity to remove one then do so.

3. At some point we should task someone to go through the code and remove them all (which is what this ticket is for), but this will be a big job and may break things.

We should also get rid of most or all of the from module import foo and from module import foo, bar statements.

I think the right thing to do is just import module and then use module.foo in your code. But if you find yourself doing module.foo.bar then you may have a code smell.

See: ​http://docs.python.org/dev/howto/doanddont.html

Currently the activity streams database tables just get longer and longer over time. Do we want to eventually delete the oldest activities, to keep the length of the table within limits?

Currently the activity_create() logic action function only lets you create top-level activity stream items, and not their related activity details. It should handle activity details via nested dicts.

In many places we have @classmethods where simple module-level functions would do (and would be more idiomatic in Python), e.g. the get() classmethods in the model/ classes.

Doing it with module functions lets us type module.function() instead of module.Class.method().

In many cases we're importing classes directly with from module import Class and then doing Class.method(), but from module import foo is bad style: ​http://docs.python.org/dev/howto/doanddont.html

Replace the /revision page with a /activity page showing a site-wide activity stream of all activities in the site. Or perhaps the site-wide activity stream can go somewhere on the front page of the site instead?

So users can rename a tag and/or move it between vocabularies using the API.

Currently we have create_tag() and delete_tag(), but if you were to 'update' a tag by deleting it and then recreating it all the datasets that had that tag will have lost it and you'll have to re-add it to them all.

What should happen to datasets that have the tag, if the tag gets moved between vocabularies? All the datasets just keep the tag with the new vocabulary? This will become a problem if/when we support 'radio button'-style vocabularies (where each dataset can only have one tag from the vocabulary).

For consistency all the *_list() functions should list objects only and not accept an optional search query. There should be *_search() functions whenever search is needed.

Currently it is inconsistent, e.g. package_list() and resource_list() do not accept a search query option and there are package_search() and resource_search(), but user_list() does accept a query and there is no user_search(). tag_list() also accepts a query, and there is also a tag_search() that apparently duplicates the search functionality.

Right now users need to manually enter a geojson value in the 'spatial' extra field in order to define a geometry for a dataset.

We need a map widget on the edit form that allows users to draw the geometry on top of a map. This will be based on the draw functions offered by OpenLayers? [1], [2].

Things to take into account:

• Integration with the form sections.
• Allow some degree of configuration (default extent, limit geometry types...)

For a free tag foo you can visit the page at /tag/foo and see a list of all the datasets that have the tag foo, and when the tag appears on dataset view pages etc. it's linked to this tag page.

We should do the same thing for vocabulary tags. A tag bar in vocabulary baz should be hyperlinked to a page /tag/baz/bar, or perhaps /vocab/baz/bar.

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.

If OFS is configured with Pairtree to use a local file storage, all POST requests to add/update metadata ( /api/storage/metadata/{label} ) will fail.

This is due to the use of ​BotoOFS specific private methods in ​StorageAPIController.set_metadata(), eg: self.ofs._require_bucket(bucket), self.ofs._get_key(b, label), self.ofs._update_key_metadata(k, metadata) ... those methods can't be found in ​POTFS and this causes errors. The API should use only ​OFSInterface methods, or should conditionally make calls based off the actual type of self.ofs.

PS: I did set "ckan" as "Component" in the ticket because storage has been integrated back into the core in CKAN 1.6

• Boot viewer for format/mimetype: application/pdf, application/x-pdf, application/acrobat, applications/vnd.pdf, text/pdf, text/x-pdf
• propose we use pdf.js - ​https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js
• We could also try iframing for browsers with native support but this seems more complex

From Ira: Preview for google spreadsheets are not displaying correctly for me in Firefox v.10.0.02, fine in Chrome. ​http://i.imgur.com/KJaqz.png

• Customize text at bottom of forms
• Also need to make clear that this does not apply to the data itself (that is covered by the license you choose on your dataset ...)

Datasets created via the harvesting (UKLP ones) and the ones created via the form use a different schema. That could lead to problems. We need to discuss the best approach.

Unfortunately ES is a little bit complex / opaque to newcomers. Need to write a simple tutorial walking through this.

This is documentation / example only (no code!)

From #2204

not sure how much we have thought through using this for storing queries / views / visualizations coming from our data viewer. In particular, wonder if this necessitates some kind of support for arbitrary json data ...

### Comments

In the simplest form, right now all I need to store is store the url to the resource plus hashbang config for recline. That would be super easy ...

See ​http://thedatahub.org/dataset/ecb13156-cf11-4e91-b51c-f287d154276e/resource/5db67915-40cb-467e-9d72-194ea4973670

This was marked as json format (and is JSON) but appears to have been imported as a quasi-CSV. Either this hsould not be imported at all or it should be imported as JSON ... (which is straightforward to do).

Assigning to David for triage and review.

Sort-by functionality was exposed through the package controller in [1]. But no controls were added to the search-page.

• What should the sortBy controls/widget look like?
• Which fields should be exposed?

The above commit is in the release-1.6.1 branch, so this work is dependant upon release-1.6.1 from being merged into master.

The feeds controller, used to construct atom feeds, duplicates code found in the package controller's search action (in order to construct the custom feed).

Refactor this to remove duplication.

Would make them much nicer but requires:

• Ensure uniqueness (or deal with ambiguity)
• (?) Slug/names versus titles
  • Aside: what is currently called name should probably be title

create permalinks

eg \dataset\~a5-DQ\nice-name

~XXXXX defines the permalink the nice-name is ignored

• packages table needs a new field for this data

• existing datasets need updating

• new datasets need the identifier creating

• routing needs updating

• needs to work for all urls like edit

Once this is implemented we can decide when we will use permalinks vs the normal urls.

E.g. on dataset page, on revision page, on user page and on search results.

Placeholder for thinking about this ...

• Allow users to configure info for CSV import (e.g. separators, quotes etc)

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.

Should minify and concatenate JavaScript? and CSS as part of #2354

Need better documentation on best practices in making page loads faster for non logged in users.
