Searching in CKAN

Description

Hello.

I've installed stable CKAN v1.1 from PyPI.

I can't find any docs about using CKAN API in order to query packages.

Query ./api/search/package?q=str works fine, but with extra parameters, such as limit, offset, fullinfo, order_by, search_notes, don't. Should I use new version for this? How can I perform this query via Ckanclient? Is it possible?

Also I'm interested how to find open-licensed files? I tied URL ./api/search/package?q=str&open_only=1&downloadable_only=1 and Ckanclient:

result = ckan.package_search('str', {'open_only': 1, 'downloadable_only': 1})

As result nothing found.

Thanks.

Alexander: Documentation is here: ​http://packages.python.org/ckan/api/version2.html#search-api

Those queries should work but I do suggest you use the stable version of CKAN which is v1.2 and we suggest you use that. If you still have problems please reopen.
