ckanext-dc-view 1.0.2

Preview DC data on DCOR

A CKAN resource view for DC data. The preview includes metadata from the HDF5 attributes and a summary plot (scatter plot of brightness vs. area and image, contour, mask, and fluorescence data for one event). This plugin registers a background job for generating the overview plot after a DC resource has been created.

This extensione implements:

• A default view for DC (mimetype) resources

• A background job that generates the preview image

• A background job that uploads preview images to the S3 object store

• A route that makes the preview image available via “/dataset/{id}/resource/{resource_id}/preview.jpg”

• CLI:

  • add CKAN command run-jobs-dc-view that runs all background jobs for all resources (if not already done)

Installation

pip install ckanext-dc_view

Testing is implemented via GitHub Actions. You may also set up a local docker container with CKAN and MinIO. Take a look at the GitHub Actions workflow for more information.
