[ckan-discuss] DataStore

Wed Sep 4 08:04:50 BST 2013

May be someone competent on CKAN could help me find out if integration of "comp" would be feasible in CKAN and what datastore functionality it could/has to/should support.

Pabitra, regarding the architecture behind "comp", I'm happy to write you more about it, but don't want to spam this mailing list with those details. I'll drop you another email.

Cheers,
Julius

We are developing our web application on top of CKAN.  Searching data within a file and being able to download a subset of data from a file is a core functionality that we need to develop. If "comp" can be integrated into CKAN that would be great. I am not sure if the CKAN datastore functionality is similar to your "comp" module.

You can see it deployed on our web site - https://mingle.io or play with it locally. we call it "comp", it's open source and available on github - https://github.com/ostap/comp
