Unable to create a dataset without resources #377

yes, sounds like a bug. ckanext-scheming only overrides the templates but not the views so there's probably a difference in the core templates that needs to be copied into ckanext-scheming. |

I believe it is this line that needs to be included in this function |

Temporary fix for ckan#377: When ckan is configured with `CKAN__DATASET__CREATE_ON_UI_REQUIRES_RESOURCES=False`, you should be able to create a dataset without any resources but the scheming plugin overrides this as it sets the state to draft until any resources are added. This temporary fix means that the resources step is omitted from the add dataset form and a catalog entry is created with no resources. Not a solution worth actually using - the correct fix would allow the option for something like "save without adding resources" on the resource page instead of skipping over the resources. I haven't done that since I don't need it for what I'm doing right now and it sounds like the maintainers are on fixing the issue.

I have set
CKAN__DATASET__CREATE_ON_UI_REQUIRES_RESOURCES=Falsein my ckan configuration, as I wish to create datasets without any resources. However, the addition of the scheming plugin has removed that functionality. In the scheming "add dataset" page, a draft dataset is created at the end of each step and it is only converted to an active state when a resource is added. My understanding is that the post to the create dataset endpoint is intercepted to add the draft state, and then the active state is set in the plugin's new resource handler. The result is that if I click through the new dataset page and click "finish" without adding a resource to the resource page, nothing happens. I believe this is a bug, as we should be able to finish creating the dataset without adding a new resource.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
