#1592 enhancement amercader amercader ckan-sprint-2012-01-09 closed fixed Add metadata_modified and metadata_created to package_dictize output

The dict returned by package_dictize does not include metadata_modified and metadata_created. These are really useful properties, so it's worth having them on the standard package dict representation, which is used in several places, like at the template level.

#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.

#1594 enhancement johnglover johnglover ckan-v1.7 closed wontfix [super] QA Improvements

Now that QA has been updated for Celery and CKAN 1.5.1, there are a number of improvements that we should probably implement.

  • Integrate QA into frontend - 1d - #1583
  • QA report improvements - 2.5d - #1584
  • QA - Check license as part of 5 star rating - #1587
  • QA - Give SPARQL endpoints a 4 star rating - #1588
  • QA - Give 5 star rating to datasets with link metadata - #1589

#1596 enhancement dread ckan-future new Refactor authz roles

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)

#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.

#1598 enhancement rgrp ckan-backlog new Reinstate Ratings

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 ...

#1599 enhancement rgrp rgrp ckan-sprint-2012-01-09 closed fixed [contrib] Simple embeddable dataset count widget (esp for group count)

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).

Provide help to users in the WUI, with this linking to a detailed user guide.

  • User guide (suggest at help.thedatahub.org (or possibly help.ckan.org)
  • Snippets in the WUI with links to full user guide.
    • Provide helper methods for creating these links with config options for setting path to user guide so that the link location can vary on install by install basis
  • General info about publishing/working with/etc data (where we don't duplicate elsewhere)

Topics

See http://ckan.okfnpad.org/datahub-help

  • Step-by-step for adding a dataset including tips
  • API (perhaps link to main docs)
  • Command line interface and dpm
  • Using groups

Why do this

We already have wiki.ckan.org and docs.ckan.org. Why do this?

Answer for docs:

  • This is administrative guide and focused on general CKAN software.
  • Hard to provide completely generic help.
  • Integratable with the DataHub? site

Answer for wiki:

  • No spam
  • General feeling that wikis are a little bit loose and untidy. We want this to be smart, clean and useful.
  • Integratable with the DataHub?

#1602 enhancement rgrp rgrp ckan-v1.6 closed fixed [super] Data Previewer / Viewer v2

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 ...)

#1604 enhancement dread ckan-backlog new Get ckanext-moderatededits working with CKAN 1.5+ templates

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.

#1605 enhancement kindly rgrp ckan-v1.7 closed fixed [super] Multilingual support in CKAN

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?

#1606 enhancement dread ckan-backlog new metadata license config option

Add a config option to choose the metadata licence. Set default to Open Database License.

Currently the dataset edit form says "Important: By submitting content, you agree to release your contributions under the Open Database License." This is hard-coded, but not suitable for when DGU uses the CKAN form - they use the OGL.

As part of Storage Changes and http://ckan.okfnpad.org/newstorage it was decided to merge ckanext-storage back into core.

Other changes:

  • Remove /storage/upload page (we have frontend integration elsewhere now and we should also ensure that upload items relate to a resource or other domain object).
  • Provide a local path as well as remote path for form upload requests in API so that frontend can see url to CKAN path rather than cloud storage path ...

#1609 enhancement ross ross ckan-sprint-2012-01-23 closed fixed Celery task for ckanext-archiver to write to webstore.

From super Storage changes - #1574 - and http://ckan.okfnpad.org/newstorage we determined that ckanext-archiver should have a celery task for grabbing local file uploads and writing to webstore

Analysis

When I upload a file to CKAN:

  • End up with file in permanent storage
  • IF file is ot type ... csv,xls,xlsx,sqlite,.sql
    • End up with new db in webstore
      • Where? {username}/{resource-id}/...
        • If a single table: name it after the file name (appropriately slugified)
      • A resource *always* corresponds to a 'database' in webstore ...
      • In Data Explorer have "Sheets" tab ...

#1611 enhancement ross ross closed duplicate Implement auth API calls for webstore/external use

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.

#1615 enhancement thejimmyg ckan-v1.6 closed worksforme CKAN Should work behind a proxy server

This would allow deployment via Nginx or Apache using proxy to Paster, uWSGI. At the moment CKAN isn't aware of the proxy's IP address so when you perform an action which does a redirect (such as adding a package), CKAN redirects you to the *internal IP* not the external *proxy IP*.

We would like this work to facilitate testing within VMs as part of our new build infrastructure.

It would also be nice if CKAN worked when mounted at a path other than /. That could be dealt with in another ticket because it isn't a problem at the moment.

#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.

Time estimate: 2h

#1635 enhancement seanh seanh ckan-backlog new Email notifications (e.g. for activity streams)

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.

#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

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

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

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

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.

#1679 enhancement dread ckan-backlog new Default roles problem

The 'editor', 'anon_editor' and 'reader' roles are intended to have immutable actions. This was designed to prevent their names being subverted - e.g. an editor should always be able to edit! It also meant that when we add Actions (e.g. DELETE-PACKAGE) then it can be added sensibly to these roles in an upgrade just by changing the defaults table (ckan/model/authz.py).

The problem is that this immutability is only enforced on 'db upgrade'. So you can happily change the editor role using the paster command and it works, right up until you do an upgrade and realise permissions are different.

We should stop the paster commands being able to edit these roles. Or get rid of the immutability completely. Views?

We want to make email announcements to users of thedatahub.org.

The most simple way to do this is to get a dump of the email addresses and subscribe/invite them to a mailman list.

Different ways to do it:

  • 'paster dump-users-csv' creates a CSV file. Apache serves up the directory using password protection. Is this secure enough?
  • CKAN admin pages provides a button to produce the CSV and download it. A config option may be necessary to enable this (disabled by default).

Something more advanced in the future could be:

  • CKAN tells mailman about new subscribers using the mailman web interface. Could be brittle.
  • Mailman doesn't have an Internet API, but it does have a python interface. So CKAN could tell mailman about new subscribers using a python proxy. There may be one out there, or maybe easy to do. But annoying to have to maintain another process running on machine.
  • CKAN sends out the emails itself. A sysadmin is given a form. Users have an opt in/out option in their account. But receiving emails is a sensitive thing so it would need to be right first time, and there are several risks to this approach.

  • populate the format field of each resource

The (guessed) 'file_extension' populates the 'format' field. If it's 'htm' or 'html', then we assume it's a listing page, and so don't populate the format field with 'htm' or 'html'.

  • provide feedback if a URL appears to be invalid

If the URL doesn't appear to be a URL at all, or returns a HTTP error, or times-out, then URL field is highlighted in red to indicate it's a bad URL. A tooltip shows the error message to the user.

  • [Optional] provide feedback if a URL appears to point to "Additional Information" - ie the Resource should be entered under "Additional Resources", rather than "Timeseries" or "Individual" datasets.
