[ckan-dev] Override Core Functionalities

Tue Apr 7 12:43:02 UTC 2015

Hi,

The safest way is to use the available interfaces and hooks [1].

Specifically you could look at before_index, that allows you to
modify what gets indexed into Solr:

http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/extensions/plugin-interfaces.html#ckan.plugins.interfaces.IPackageController.before_index

If the functionality you need is not exposed there we might need to
add further extension points.
