[ckan-dev] Spatial search for datasets with dataset collection

[Tracy Harton]

I'm trying to search for datasets from a dataset collection, given an area of interest.  This works interactively and the following returns 6 datasets as expected:

http://catalog.data.gov/dataset?q=&collection_package_id=b64c5a49-80bf-4fd2-ac7f-c2f7fe474ae6&ext_bbox=-121,45,-120,46

If I try to do an API call to retrieve the data as JSON, the following always returns 0 results, but no error, regardless of bbox:

http://catalog.data.gov/api/search/dataset?q=&collection_package_id=b64c5a49-80bf-4fd2-ac7f-c2f7fe474ae6&ext_bbox=-121,45,-120,46 

Leaving off the bbox returns the entire collection as expected:

http://catalog.data.gov/api/search/dataset?q=&collection_package_id=b64c5a49-80bf-4fd2-ac7f-c2f7fe474ae6

For a package_search, which does work for ext_bbox, I am not able to filter by collection_package_id, only "q"

So, is ext_bbox supported for this API search?  Or is this a data.gov issue?   Any help would be appreciated...
