CKAN Python SDK for CKAN3 instances with CKAN3 cloud storage.

Project description

CKAN Client: Python SDK

contributions welcome ckan-client-py actions The MIT License

CKAN 3 SDK for CKAN instances with CKAN v3 style cloud storage.
This SDK will communicate with ckanext-authz-service (using CKAN to provide authorization tokens for other related systems) and Giftless (a highly customizable and extensible Git LFS server implemented in Python) to upload data to blob storage.

Read more about it's design.

Install

Install it from the Python Package Index:

$ pip install ckan-client

Usage

ckanclient.Client

Arguments:

Name Description
api_url CKAN API key
api_key CKAN instance URL
organization Organization
dataset_id Dataset id
lfs_url Git LFS URL

Example:

from ckanclient import Client


client = Client(
    '771a05ad-af90-4a70-beea-cbb050059e14',
    'http://localhost:5000',
    'datopian',
    'dailyprices',
    'http://localhost:9419',
)

These settings matches the standard of ckanext-blob-storage development environment, but you still need to create the user and organization there.

ckanclient.Client.action

Arguments:

Name Type Default Description
name str (required) The action name, for example, site_read, package_show
payload dict (required) The payload being sent to CKAN. If a payload is provided for a GET request, it will be converted to URL parameters and each key will be converted to snake case.
http_get bool False Optional, if True will make GET request, otherwise POST.
transform_payload function None Function to mutate the payload before making the request (useful to convert to and from CKAN and Frictionless formats).
transform_response function None function to mutate the response data before returning it (useful to convert to and from CKAN and Frictionless formats).

This method is used internally by the following methods.

ckanclient.Client.create

Arguments:

Name Type Description
dataset_name_or_metadata str or dict It is either a string being a valid dataset name or dictionary with meta-data for the dataset in Frictionless format.

Example:

dataset = client.create('dailyprices')

ckanclient.Client.push

Arguments:

Name Type Description
dataset_metadata dict Dataset meta-data in Frictionless format.

Example:

dataset_metadata = {
    'id': '16d6e8d7-a848-48b1-91d0-fd393c1c6c01',
    'name': 'dailyprices',
    'owner_org': '57f97769-a982-4ccd-91f0-1d86dee822e3',
    'title': 'dailyprices',
    'type': 'dataset',
    'contributors': [],
    # …
}
dataset = client.push(dataset_metadata)

ckanclient.Client.retrieve

Arguments:

Name Type Description
name_or_id str Id or name of the dataset.

Example:

dataset = client.retrieve('dailyprices')

ckanclient.Client.push_blob

Arguments:

Name Type Description
resource dict A Frictionless resource.
