Richard:
That's right, ckanapi doesn't have FileStore support yet. We're not
using FileStore at data.gc.ca at the moment so I didn't have a chance
to add that code.
I would very much like to add support for uploading to FileStore to
ckanapi, though. I'll probably get to it eventually, but pull requests
are welcome!
