ckan-devstaller

ckan-devstaller attempts to install CKAN 2.11.3 from source using ckan-compose, intended for development use in a new Ubuntu 22.04 instance. The following are also installed and enabled by default:

• DataStore extension
• ckanext-scheming extension
• DataPusher+ extension

DRUF mode is available but disabled by default. The datatablesview-plus extension is planned to be included in a future release.

Quick start

Caution

Warning

If you are using Ubuntu 22.04 on VirtualBox, you may need to add your user to the sudoers file before running the ckan-devstaller install script. Open a terminal in your virtual machine (VM), run su - and log in as the root user with the password you used to set up the VM, then type sudo adduser <username> sudo where <username> is your username then restart your VM and run the ckan-devstaller installer script.

Note

The /etc/ckan/default/ckan.ini config file will have its comments removed for now. There are plans to fix this in a future release of ckan-devstaller.
