#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?

#1399 enhancement johnglover rgrp ckan-sprint-2011-10-24 closed fixed Generate archiving request on resource url change

Superticket: #1397

Generate archiving request on resource url change by implementing IResourceUrlChange and sending tasks to celery. [0.25d][0.25d]

Will be part of of ckanext-archiver extension.

Process:

  1. A resource is added to CKAN
  2. IResourceCreate event generated
  3. IF: resource url points to ckan storage or falls within some other set of exclusion conditions then END else continue
  4. Generate a Archiver.Update task with resource.id

#1403 enhancement zephod zephod ckan-backlog new Refactor groups index page

Groups are listed alphabetically with paging - not an ideal user experience. We would like to list groups in order of 'popularity': The number of datasets they contain.

Following this chain of thought, then, it would be nice to rearrange the groups table by clicking on column headers and having it sort by that column.

Furthermore, then, we'd like to implement a full-fledged groups search feature (if this is at all feasible).

The forthcoming groups refactor will probably have some bearing on this task.

#1404 enhancement zephod zephod ckan-v1.7 closed wontfix Search Page UI improvements

[Refactored] :: Follows on from #1506 UX changes.

  • Declutter the sidebar. No yellow box.
  • Facets to go on the left, rather than the right. More logical flow.
  • Did you know you can search by author? Probably not. Find a nice way of presenting extended search options.
  • Make Datasets in the search page look more like Datasets on the groups pages (ie. like awesome sexy search results).
    • Update that look-and-feel to include the new resource icons created in #1506

#1406 enhancement zephod ckan-backlog new Re-enable RSS subscriptions

RSS 'subscribe' buttons appeared in many places on the site but were not very helpful. They took (confused) users pointed to the raw feed code, and Google Reader could not understand the feed. Safari, however, could interpret it correctly.

Their presentation needs to be clear and consistent; the RSS feed really needs testing in a variety of readers; and we need to decide exactly which items should get a feed. (Package updates? Groups?)

#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

#1423 enhancement markbrough ckan-backlog new Edit resources suggestions
  • Description vs Name - Edit Resources view is showing the name of the package rather than the description, and a lot (all?) of the packages before the upgrade don't have names, so might be good to swap this round again, e.g.: http://thedatahub.org/dataset/edit/iati-registry
  • Moving resources - Moving them up or down the list used to be quite useful if you had a lot of resources that you might want to leave on the resources page, but only one or two that were actually current and that you wanted to draw attention to. This doesn't exist any more on CKAN but I think it would be good to add it back in.

ckan-discuss discussion suggests changes to the 'openness' indicator ( http://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/ckan-discuss/2011-October/001786.html )

Dataset view page:

  • If there is an explicit but non-OKD compliant license, such as CC-BY-NC, then this should be stated explicitly, perhaps: “This dataset is Not Open. License: Creative Commons Attribution Noncommerical. This is not an open license as it does not meet the Open Knowledge Definition.”
  • If the license is marked as “Other::License Not Specified”, then this should be stated explicitly, perhaps: “This dataset is Not Open. It is published without an explicit license, the publisher reserves all rights to the dataset.”
  • 3. If the license field was left empty by the contributor of the Data Hub record, then again this should be stated explicitly, perhaps: “This dataset is Not Open. The license of this dataset is unknown or unspecified. Start an enquiry on IsItOpenData? »
  • There is a bug so that non-open licenses doesn't have an openness notice.
  • If downloadable resources are not available, this should not affect 'openness' - check this has been removed.

#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.

Super ticket: #1190

A data processing system which utilizes the Webstore. One could get a long way with simple javascript running in the browser for development with this javascript then run offline using something like nodejs. Alternatively one could allow one to specify a url to e.g. a python file which would then be run in a sandbox (with access to some specified set of python modules)

#1438 enhancement dread ckan-future new Action API - parameter discovery/checking

Many actions in the Action API require parameters. What params are needed should be listed and checked. Because currently, if you get them wrong you simply get a useless 500 error.

Currently they are listed in the docs, extracted from the code manually.

So you could GET /action/api/package_list to receive not only the help text, but a list of arguments.

And if you send an extra or missing argument then an intelligent error message can be returned.

implementation

How about some sort of decorator on the action function:

@logic_params(id, offset, limit)
def get_package_list(context, data_dict):
    ...

This would do the param checking, and is there a way to extract these params from the function? Or do a registration of the logic function?

I'd certainly like to keep the list of the list of params for the function with the function, for ease of reading the code.

Another good thing would be to pass in the params named as themselves, rather than having them contained in the data_dict.

#1439 enhancement dread ckan-backlog new Action API discoverablility

A good service API needs to be discoverable, so you are not always having to refer to the documentation html.

Maybe /api/action should return a list of actions available? (Currently this returns a 404.)

  • It would be nice to sort these into get/create/update/delete.
  • #1438 Parameters for each of the actions must be discoverable too

/api/action/{action_name} should also return the help text / parameters allowable. (Currently this returns 400 error)

(additional)

  • Resource navbar item links to first resource
  • Resource navbar has a dropdown menu of all resources in the dataset
  • Edit and Authz navbar items should be in a separate logical group to the right

Very rough summary: create more info section and move stuff out (relayout page e.g. README, tags etc)

#1452 enhancement dread dread closed wontfix Offer detected browser language, rather than auto-switch

There are issues with setting the site's language according to the browser detection:

  • Many browsers have the language setting incorrectly set. e.g. people who download US versions of Mozilla, pirated US copies in the far east.
  • Although thedatahub.org has a worldwide audience, many CKAN instances are designed for a particular country's citizens. So Open Berlin should probably be in German as default for all.

I suggest the site should have a default language saved in the config. The browser language *should* be detected, and that prompts a flash message offering to change to that language. And if you change language that is saved in the cookie (as we currently do).

Then do some testing to see if this suits people.

We made SOLR the main and only supported way to do CKAN search three months ago (#1275), but I notice that we still have remnants of the postgres full-text search hanging around:

  • model code (ckan/model/search_index.py)
  • table in the database (package_search)

The presence of these still create sqlalchemy warnings and add to our db, (& db backups etc), so it would be good to get rid of them if we are not using them. John says this can probably be removed

#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.

This could be implemented as a separate API call, or the rendered text versions of the activities could be added into the JSON returned by the existing API call.

This requires setting up templates for rendering activity streams items and detail items as nice, human-readable text.

There are some open questions, e.g.: Do we want the entire activity stream rendered as a block of plain text? As HTML? Or do we want a list of JSON objects, where each object contains its textual and/or HTML representations as fields?

Activity stream items and their related detail items are separate objects that each have their own textual representations.

For a mockup of the kind of text messages we want, see:

http://datahub.pudo.org/pudo

but note that this ticket is just for creating the text snippets themselves, not rendering then in an HTML page or RSS feed. Also the mockup only show activity items and not their detail items.

  • 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.

  • 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]

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

Rather than the anonymous 'user' icon in the top-right corner, we could display your gravatar on all pages when you are logged in.

This was suggested by Richard Cyganiak: http://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/ckan-discuss/2011-November/001825.html

#1531 enhancement kindly kindly ckan-sprint-2012-01-09 closed fixed Update group create/update so you can add capacities and group types.

The new members table needs a way so you can add arbitrary domain objects against them.

We need to extend the group schema to accept types, and instead of just being able to add packages to groups add members with their capacities that associated with different table rows.

#1534 enhancement rgrp ckan-backlog new Change revisions to record userid rather than username

The use of username is problematic because username's can change.

  • Change all revision creation code to use user id (simplest is to change c.author field in lib/base.py (?))
    • (?) Add a field ipaddr for ip address of anonymous users? (or just keep putting this in author field on Revision and then acception that those won't match when we do a look up against user table)
  • Change user view page to look up against user id rather than name
  • Perform migration on existing Revision objects
    • Match should probably be against both openid and username when searching Revisions' author field (especially true on CKAN where some people have already changed their username from being their openid)

#1535 enhancement dread ckan-backlog new Plump for auth header of: X-CKAN-API-KEY

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)

#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.

#1538 enhancement icmurray icmurray ckan-v1.7 closed wontfix Store partially-filled in package form data as a draft.

Allow a user to save a partially-complete and probably invalid package-create form in order to come back to it later.

We decided on blob storage over a state field on the package:

  • prevents a history of the drafts being stored in the revision history. This is a particular problem if we start auto-saving, say every 20s.
  • the blob can store arbitrary extra data, such as how far through the wizard we are.

#1539 enhancement icmurray icmurray ckan-v1.7 closed wontfix Package forms auto-save

Using the saved-draft feature, we enable auto-save for the package-new and package-edit forms.

An AJAX call is made every N seconds, and the auto-saved blob is updated.

note - we don't want to overwrite a previously save draft, but we will want to overwrite the last autosave.

#1542 enhancement dread ckan-backlog new Buttons to purge spam datasets and groups

A sysadmin should be able to easily examine a suspect group or package, determine if it was created by a spammer (as opposed to being a legitimate object that has been graffitied by a spammer) and purge it.

The existing two-stage revision delete is currently unreliable and perhaps too laborious.

Olav and Richard have needs along this line.

#1545 enhancement amercader ckan-sprint-2012-01-09 closed wontfix Remove external asset dependencies

CKAN is pulling a number of resources from external locations. This causes problems when connectivity is limited and you have to work locally. Maybe some of them cold be moved to CKAN source to avoid external requests.

  • Modify the results returned (after_search)
def after_search(search_results, search_params):

#1549 enhancement ross ckan-backlog closed wontfix [super] Short link tool

It would be great to have a CKAN extension that allowed users (or CKAN itself) to generate short links to other URIs (both internal and external). Once created, shortlinks made by CKAN should be changeable. This would allow uploaded content to be moved without the user's link changing at all. The tool itself might also be of use as a general link-shortener to users other than the CKAN system itself.

Another useful feature would be for this to also collect some simple analytics such as the referrer and client IP for future reference. I'm not yet sure what we would do with the analytics other than some sort of popularity metric.

Questions:

  • Core, or Extension, or Self-hosted?
