ckanext-collection

This extension provides functionality similar to CKAN core groups. This extension can be used to generate collections of datasets when groups are used to implement some other functionality e.g. categories.

The extension creates a new route to '/collection' through where collections can be searched and managed. The extension also creates a subnav into package read where the active package can be added into existing collections

Requirements

This extension is developed with CKAN version 2.6, but older 2.x versions should also work

Installation

To install ckanext-collection:

  1. Activate your CKAN virtual environment, for example:

    . /usr/lib/ckan/default/bin/activate
    
  2. Install the ckanext-collection Python package into your virtual environment:

    pip install ckanext-collection
    
  3. Add collection to the ckan.plugins setting in your CKAN config file (by default the config file is located at /etc/ckan/default/production.ini).

  4. Restart CKAN. For example if you've deployed CKAN with Apache on Ubuntu:

    sudo service apache2 reload
    

Development Installation

To install ckanext-collection for development, activate your CKAN virtualenv and do:

git clone https://github.com/6aika/ckanext-collection.git
cd ckanext-collection
python setup.py develop
pip install -r dev-requirements.txt

Running the Tests

TODO: No tests implemented yet

Updating translations

To extract all translatable strings run this command in the plugin root directory:

python setup.py extract_messages

After this the updated ckanext-collection.pot with the source language can be pushed to Transifex with the transifex client. (Note that you need to set your transifex credentials into ~/.transifexrc before running the command):

tx push --source

Translate new strings in Transifex and pull them by running:

# --force can be added if old translations can be overwritten by the ones fetched from transifex (this is usually the case)
tx pull

Recompile translations (-f is needed to since Transifex will set the exported files as fuzzy):

python setup.py compile_catalog -f
