ckanext-dcatde

DCAT-AP.de specific CKAN extension for providing and importing DCAT-AP.de-Profile data.

Dependencies

The CKAN-Plugin ckanext-dcatde is based on the CKAN extension ckanext-dcat.

For the RDF harvester, ckanext-harvest is used (optional, see below).

Getting Started

  1. If you are using Python virtual environment (virtualenv), activate it.

  2. Install a specific version of the CKAN extension ckanext-dcat. The recommended approach is to install the version of ckanext-dcat specified in the base-requirements.txt in GitHub or Open CoDE. Using other versions may lead to logical inconsistencies.

  3. Install the extension on your virtualenv:

    # use project on GitHub
    (pyenv) $ pip install -e git+git://github.com/GovDataOfficial/ckanext-dcatde.git#egg=ckanext-dcatde
    (pyenv) $ cd src/ckanext-dcatde
    (pyenv) $ pip install -r base-requirements.txt -f requirements
    (pyenv) $ python setup.py develop
    

    or

    # use project on Open CoDE
    (pyenv) $ pip install -e git+git://gitlab.opencode.de/fitko/govdata/ckanext-dcatde.git#egg=ckanext-dcatde
    (pyenv) $ cd src/ckanext-dcatde
    (pyenv) $ pip install -r base-requirements.txt -f requirements
    (pyenv) $ python setup.py develop
    
  4. Install a specific version of the CKAN extension ckanext-harvest. (Only if you want to use the RDF harvester)
    The recommended approach is to install the version of ckanext-dcat specified in the optional-requirements.txt GitHub or Open CoDE. Using other versions may lead to logical inconsistencies.

  5. Enable the required plugins by adding to your CKAN configuration file:

    ckan.plugins = dcat dcatde harvest dcatde_rdf_harvester
    

    The plugins harvest and dcatde_rdf_harvester are only needed if you want to use the RDF harvester.

    In case you like the datasets to be indexed via Google Dataset Search, activate the structured_data plugin in addition. See ckanext-dcat README for details.

  6. Add the following parameter to your CKAN configuration file to activate the additional profile for DCAT-AP.de:

    ckanext.dcat.rdf.profiles = euro_dcat_ap_2 dcatap_de
    

RDF DCAT-AP.de Harvester

If the plugin dcatde_rdf_harvester is activated an additional source type DCAT-AP.de RDF Harvester is selectable. The harvester supports the additional fields specified in DCAT-AP.de.

Default license

By default the harvester will set a default license in the resource if in the resource of a dataset is no license provided. In this case additional information about the harvest source, dataset and resource will be written as log entry in the info level.

The value which will be used as default license can be defined by the configuration parameter ckanext.dcatde.harvest.default_license. Add the following parameter to your CKAN configuration file, e.g.:

ckanext.dcatde.harvest.default_license = http://dcat-ap.de/def/licenses/other-closed

Skipping datasets which does not contain any resources

Skipping datasets which does not contain any resources can be activated by setting the optional configuration parameter resources_required in the harvest source configuration. Already existent datasets will not be skipped. Add the following parameter into the harvest source configuration:

{"resources_required": true}

Cleaning Tags/Keywords

The DCAT-AP.de profile implements a different logic for cleaning tags/keywords as implemented in ckanext-dcat, e.g. not replacing/removing German umlauts and 'ß'.

Triplestore support

The originally harvested RDF data can also be written into a triplestore. It is tested with the Apache Jena Fuseki (https://jena.apache.org/documentation/fuseki2/index.html). To activate this option set the following configuration parameters.

ckanext.dcatde.fuseki.triplestore.url = http://url/to/triplestore
ckanext.dcatde.fuseki.triplestore.name = datastore_name
ckanext.dcatde.fuseki.harvest.info.name = second_datastore_for_harvest_information

The triplestore application have to be installed and running before the first harvesting. In addition the datastores have to be created manually. ckanext.dcatde.fuseki.triplestore.name is the name of the datastore where the actual data is stored. The datatstore ckanext.dcatde.fuseki.harvest.info.name is needed for the harvester to keep track of information about the datasets so the current data will be updated properly when reharvesting.

SHACL support

If the triplestore is used you can also activate SHACL validation support by adding the following parameters. It is tested with the SHACL-Validator from the ISA2 Interoperability Test Bed (Sourcecode: https://github.com/ISAITB/shacl-validator, Documentation: https://www.itb.ec.europa.eu/docs/guides/latest/validatingRDF) The SHACL results will be stored in the triplestore.

ckanext.dcatde.fuseki.shacl.store.name = shacl_output_datastore_name
ckanext.dcatde.shacl_validator.api_url = http://url/to/shacl/validator/api
ckanext.dcatde.shacl.validator.profile.type = shacl_profile_name

The SHACL validator application have to be installed and running before the first harvesting.

Creating dcat-ap categories as groups

You need to add the following parameter to your CKAN configuration file:

ckanext.dcatde.urls.themes = file:///path/to/file/dcat_theme.json

You will find an example file here: dcat_theme.json If you want to create the standard dcat-ap categories as groups you can use the ckan command "dcatde_themeadder" by following the instructions:

(pyenv) $ ckan --config=/etc/ckan/default/production.ini dcatde_themeadder

Migrating ogd conform datasets to dcat-ap.de

You need to add the following parameter to your CKAN configuration file:

ckanext.dcatde.urls.license_mapping = file:///path/to/file/dcat_license_mapping.json
ckanext.dcatde.urls.category_mapping = file:///path/to/file/category_mapping.json

You will find the example files here: dcat_license_mapping.json and category_mapping.json The migration requires that the dcat-ap categories exists as groups in CKAN, see Creating dcat-ap categories as groups. If you want to migrate the datasets from ogd to dcat-ap.de you can use the ckan command "dcatde_migrate" by following the instructions:

(pyenv) $ ckan --config=/etc/ckan/default/production.ini dcatde_migrate

With the version 3.1.1 an additional option to the migrate command was added to fix the migration of the OGD field metadata_original_id. Instead of mapping this field to adms:identifier it will be mapped to the field dct:identifier now. The command can be executed as follows:

(pyenv) $ ckan --config=/etc/ckan/default/production.ini dcatde_migrate adms-id-migrate

Migrating contributor IDs in datasets

Adds the ContributorID defined in the related CKAN organization to the datasets if not alredy existent. If the ContributorID of a contributor (see latest list at https://www.dcat-ap.de/def/contributors/), contributing datasets to GovData, has changed, the ContributorID in the related datasets can be migrated. The list of the deprecated ContributorIDs and the ContributorIDs replacing them are located in the source code. The command can be executed as follows:

(pyenv) $ ckan --config=/etc/ckan/default/production.ini dcatde_migrate contributor-id-migrate

Updating data in the triplestore

The data in the triplestore can be updated with several commands.

It is possible to reindex (adding or only updating) the manually maintained datasets. The command can be executed as follows:

(pyenv) $ ckan --config=/etc/ckan/default/production.ini triplestore reindex

For some reasons it can be necessary to delete the data of one or more datasets in the triplestore. The command can be executed as follows:

(pyenv) $ ckan --config=/etc/ckan/default/production.ini triplestore delete_datasets {uris}

{uris}: A comma separated list of URIs to delete from the triplestore

Testing

Unit tests are placed in the ckanext/dcatde/tests directory and can be run with the pytest unit testing framework:

$ cd /path/to/virtualenv/src/ckanext-dcatde
$ pytest
