CKAN view extension for the creation and display of resource data visualization dashboards through WireCloud embbeded dashboards.

With this extension you can create a view for a resource using WireCloud. You can set the view to load an existing dashboard or
create a custom dashboard from the view form.


## Requirements

You need the [Oauth2 extension](https://github.com/conwetlab/ckanext-oauth2) for CKAN in order to make this extension work.


## Installation

To install ckanext-wirecloud_view:

1. Activate your CKAN virtual environment, for example:

```
. /usr/lib/ckan/default/bin/activate
```

2. Install the ckanext-wirecloudview Python package into your virtual environment:

```
pip install ckanext-wirecloud_view
```

3. Add `wirecloud_view` to the `ckan.plugins` setting in your CKAN
config file (e.g. `/etc/ckan/default/production.ini`).

4. Add proper values for the `ckan.wirecloud_view.url` and
`ckan.wirecloud_view.editor_dashboard` settings in your CKAN config file:

```ini
# URL of the WireCloud instance to use for creating the dashboards
ckan.wirecloud_view.url = https://mashup.lab.fiware.org

# ID of the dashboard/workspace to use for creating new visualization dashboards
ckan.wirecloud_view.editor_dashboard = wirecloud/ckan-editor
```
