[ckan-dev] add organizations programmatically

Fri Dec 11 16:12:13 UTC 2015

If you want to use organization_create directly, you can find an example
how to create organizations programmatically here:
https://github.com/ogdch/ckanext-swisstopo/blob/bbd5ed6034b2252170da7f1ba41eccf57542beb0/ckanext/swisstopo/harvesters/swisstopoharvester.py#L440-L457

Depending on your needs and the context of this requirement, it might be
worth looking into the ckanapi package, which makes these kinds of things
easier: https://github.com/ckan/ckanapi
