[ckan-dev] Resource view plugin for ZIP files

[Matthew Fullerton]

Just to correct myself:

- JavaScript ZIP viewing is possible: https://stuk.github.io/jszip/documentation/howto/read_zip.html

- I suppose the view would be enabled manually and then probably only for relatively small zip files


I would be interested in seeing this happen/helping.


Best,

Matt

Hi,
I would be even more interested in a plugin that offers to unzip zip files to multiple resources at upload time OR put a listing of the contents into the description of a single resource automatically. Or a 'preview' that just loads the file listing as text from an extras field, created at upload. A preview that actually accesses the ZIP file each time on-view is probably to much work for the server or too much bandwidth for the client (assuming ZIP file previewing with JavaScript is even possible).


Best,
Matt

Betreff: [ckan-dev] Resource view plugin for ZIP files

Hi there,

is anyone aware of a resource view plugin to "preview" ZIP files? I found already a bunch of plugins for all kinds of formats (including geo-formats, office-docs etc.), but so far I couldn't find one for ZIPs.

If that does not exist, would others be interested in such a plugin as well?

Cheers, Stefan
