Project description
Data.gov
Data.gov is an open data website created by the U.S. General Services Administration that is based on two robust open source projects: CKAN and WordPress. The data catalog at catalog.data.gov is powered by CKAN, while the content seen at Data.gov is powered by WordPress.
For all code, bugs, and feature requests related to Data.gov, see the project wide Data.gov issue tracker.
Currently this repository is only used for source version control on the code for the CKAN extension for geospatial data, but you can see all of the Data.gov relevant repos listed in the GSA Data.gov README file.
CKAN Extension for Geospatial Data
Most Data.gov specific CKAN customizations are contained within this extension, but the extension also provides additional geospatial capabilities.
Customization
The migration process from CKAN 2.3 (forked version) to CKAN 2.8 includes a significant reduction in custom code (and a large reduction in the time required to maintain this code). This new version of the catalog (called Catalog-Next) begins to use the official versions of:
- CKAN
- ckanext-harvest
- ckanext-spatial
In this way of reducing custom code this extension should be reviewed. Some features should be removed or moved to the official community versions:
- Stop rolling up the extras
- Move to the official search by geolocation (probably sharing our version that has improvements)
- Do a general analysis of this extension to detect other personalized functionalities that should be discontinued.

ckanext-spatial | Commit: 93c430f on GSA fork until merged upstream |

werkzeug | This only effects the tests. For all intents and purposes, this should be tracking upstream |
This extension is compatible with these versions of CKAN.

<=2.7 | no |
2.8 | yes |
2.9 | complete |
Tests
All the tests live in the /ckanext/geodatagov/tests folder. After each commit, via the CircleCI config, this tests will run in CircleCI with CKAN 2.3 (custom GSA fork) and CKAN 2.8. The CircleCI tests were not retained, but may be revisited in the future.
Using the Docker Dev Environment
Build Environment
To start environment, run:
docker-compose build
docker-compose up
CKAN will start at localhost:5000
To shut down environment, run:
docker-compose down
To docker exec into the CKAN image, run:
docker-compose exec app /bin/bash
Testing
They follow the guidelines for testing CKAN extensions.
To run the extension tests, start the containers with make up
, then:
$ make test
Lint the code.
$ make lint
Matrix builds
The existing development environment assumes a full catalog.data.gov test setup. This makes
it difficult to develop and test against new versions of CKAN (or really any
dependency) because everything is tightly coupled and would require us to
upgrade everything at once which doesn't really work. A new make target
test-new
is introduced with a new docker-compose file.
The "new" development environment drops as many dependencies as possible. It is not meant to have feature parity with GSA/catalog.data.gov. Tests should mock external dependencies where possible.
In order to support multiple versions of CKAN, or even upgrade to new versions
of CKAN, we support development and testing through the CKAN_VERSION
environment variable.
$ make CKAN_VERSION=2.8 test
$ make CKAN_VERSION=2.9 test
