[ckan-dev] python ckanclient querying multiple tags

[Timothy Lebo]

CKAN,

I'm trying to use the python ckanclient [1] to query for datasets with a certain set of multiple tags.

Based on [2], I was able to cobble together a successful URL query:

(A)
http://thedatahub.org/api/search/dataset?q=tags:helpme&tags:lod



But how to call this through the ckanclient?

The following works to get one tag:
self.ckan.package_search('tags:helpme')

but neither of these works to results similar to (A) above:
self.ckan.package_search('tags:helpme&tags:lod') 
self.ckan.package_search('tags:helpme&tags:lod')
self.ckan.package_search([ 'tags:helpme', tags:lod' ] )



What is the appropriate query string to give package_search to get datasets with multiple tags?

Thanks for your consideration!

Regards,
Tim Lebo
