[ckan-dev] Core Field "type"

[Florian Marienfeld]

Hi,

The core field "type" appears in the schema [1] and you can also write a
string to it an read it back. However, I couldn't find an official
meaning. We are considering exploiting this field for differentiating
packages with data, docs and apps, that we all want to jam into the same
ckan instance. Does this clash with the intention of the field?

Thanks in advance, best regards,

FLO
