[ckan-dev] Spatial, Harvest and DCAT extensions up to speed with CKAN 2.3

Wed Apr 8 09:41:39 UTC 2015

Hi all,

Just a quick note to let people know that ckanext-spatial,
ckanext-harvest and ckanext-dcat have been updated to run with CKAN
2.3 and above.

In the ckanext-spatial case, changes in the SQLAlchemy version on CKAN
core meant that we had to upgrade the GeoAlchemy requirement to
GeoAlchemy2. New deployments of ckanext-spatial will take care of
this, but if you are upgrading an existing install you will need to
install it manually (it is a separate package):

    pip install geolachemy2

For more details check the Troubleshooting section of the docs:

http://docs.ckan.org/projects/ckanext-spatial/en/latest/install.html#when-upgrading-the-extension-to-a-newer-version

This changes also mean that PostGIS 2.x is fully supported. The
install isntructions have been updated to reflect this as well.

Thanks to Sol Lee for providing a patch to upgrade the GeoJSON preview.

Let us know if you find any issue.
