[ckan-dev] Custom Search Facets

[Renato Guevara]

One of the issues I have is the following:

I have a plugin that is adding new custom fields.

class DescribeFieldsPlugin(p.SingletonPlugin, tk.DefaultDatasetForm):
        p.implements(p.IDatasetForm)
        p.implements(p.IConfigurer)
        p.implements(p.ITemplateHelpers)

        def get_helpers(self):
                return {'queryLanguages': queryLanguages}

        def _modify_package_schema(self, schema):
                '''
                schema.update({
                        'queryLanguage':
[tk.get_validator('ignore_missing'),

tk.get_converter('convert_to_extras')]
                })
                '''
                schema.update({
                        'queryLanguage':
[tk.get_validator('ignore_missing'),

tk.get_converter('convert_to_tags')('queryLanguages')]
                })
                return schema

        def create_package_schema(self):
                schema = super(DescribeFieldsPlugin,
self).create_package_schema()
                schema = self._modify_package_schema(schema)
                return schema

        def update_package_schema(self):
                schema = super(DescribeFieldsPlugin,
self).update_package_schema()
                schema = self._modify_package_schema(schema)
                return schema

        def show_package_schema(self):
                schema = super(DescribeFieldsPlugin,
self).show_package_schema()
                '''
                schema.update({
                        'queryLanguage':
[tk.get_converter('convert_from_extras'),

tk.get_validator('ignore_missing')]
                })
                '''

schema['tags']['__extras'].append(tk.get_converter('free_tags_only'))
                schema.update({
                        'queryLanguage': [

tk.get_converter('convert_from_tags')('queryLanguages'),
                        tk.get_validator('ignore_missing')]
                })
                return schema

def create_queryLanguages():
        user = tk.get_action('get_site_user')({'ignore_auth': True}, {})
        context = {'user': user['name']}
        try:
                data = {'id': 'queryLanguages'}
                tk.get_action('vocabulary_show')(context, data)
        except tk.ObjectNotFound:
                data = {'name': 'queryLanguages'}
                vocab = tk.get_action('vocabulary_create')(context, data)
                for tag in (u'sparql-language',u'sql'):
                        data = {'name': tag, 'vocabulary_id': vocab['id']}
                        tk.get_action('tag_create')(context, data)

def queryLanguages():
        create_queryLanguages()
        try:
                tag_list = tk.get_action('tag_list')
                queryLanguages = tag_list(data_dict={'vocabulary_id':
'queryLanguages'})
                return queryLanguages
        except tk.ObjectNotFound:
                return None


However, when I add a facet for queryLanguage, should I add it as an
extra?  Because what is happening is that the term "sparql-language' is
getting broken up into two different facets.  Do you know why this may be
happening?
