http://localhost/ticket/1415 <p> 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. </p> <p> Rufus and me re-deployed some community ckan instances onto s022 (see <a class="ext-link" href="http://trac.okfn.org/ticket/926"><span class="icon">​</span>http://trac.okfn.org/ticket/926</a>). We followed the documentation <a class="ext-link" href="http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/install-from-package.html"><span class="icon">​</span>http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/install-from-package.html</a> </p> <ul><li>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 </li><li>When is 1.4.3/1.5.x expected as deb package? </li><li>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==&gt;1.4.2 but was nevertheless present in this deb package. </li><li>The current script /usr/bin/ckan-std-install <ul><li>does not set the Apache <a class="missing wiki">ServerName?</a> according to the $INSTANCE variable </li><li>automatically configures a ckan extension named after $INSTANCE </li><li>depends on local postgres </li><li>could be replaced with "/usr/bin/ckan-deploy --name=ckan-std --domain=ckan-std.localhost (see next point) </li></ul></li><li>(i think this is exactly James' plan): have more generic deployment script /usr/bin/ckan-deploy as part of python-ckan which takes arguments like <ul><li>--domain=cc.ckan.net </li><li>--aliases=$list-of-domains </li><li>--name=cc (defaults to "domain") </li><li>--no-db (does not configure a DB) </li><li>--sql-alchemy=$DB_CONFIG_STRING (also runs "paster --plugin ckan db upgrade --config") </li><li>--extension $list-of-extesions </li><li>... </li></ul></li></ul> en-us http://assets.okfn.org/p/ckan/img/ckan_logo_shortname.png http://localhost/ticket/1415 Trac 0.12.3 nils.toedtmann Mon, 24 Oct 2011 11:59:43 GMT http://localhost/ticket/1415#comment:1 http://localhost/ticket/1415#comment:1 <p> Arww ... sorry i only now rediscovered James' mail "CKAN Packaging" from Sept 29th where he announced the availability of the repository <a class="ext-link" href="http://apt.okfn.org/ckan-1.4.3.1"><span class="icon">​</span>http://apt.okfn.org/ckan-1.4.3.1</a> . This package release already addresses many of the above points. </p> <p> I will test those packages and refine my comments then. Sorry for the noise. </p> Ticket thejimmyg Tue, 06 Dec 2011 10:39:01 GMT http://localhost/ticket/1415#comment:2 http://localhost/ticket/1415#comment:2 <ul> <li><strong>priority</strong> changed from <em>awaiting triage</em> to <em>minor</em> </li> <li><strong>status</strong> changed from <em>new</em> to <em>closed</em> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> set to <em>fixed</em> </li> <li><strong>milestone</strong> set to <em>ckan-sprint-2011-12-05</em> </li> </ul> <p> This is all complete now. We aren't yet allowing multiple options, but we do support proper version numbers and the domain name. Other features will be implemented as different scripts for the timebeing eg ckan-setup-solr. </p> Ticket
