Navigate to the directory where you want to install ckan_cli, then run the following command:

git clone https://github.com/datagovlv/ckan_cli.git

This will clone the ckan_cli repository into your chosen directory.

Navigate to the ckan_cli directory and run:

bundle install

For Windows OS copy libcurl dll from \ext\ git directory to Ruby executables directory (e.g. 'C:\Ruby26-x64\bin'). Rename libcurl-32bit.dll -> libcurl.dll ir libcurl-64bit.dll ->libcurl.dll

Additionally, after following these instructions, you may need to manually execute gem install csvlint to prevent ActiveSupport errors.

Navigate to the ckan_cli directory and run:

$ exe/ckancli.rb

For instance, to publish to CKAN all CSV files in folder do

$ exe/ckancli.rb upload -d /tmp/some_csv_file_folder/ -c example_files/config.json -r example_files/resource.json

To see help do

$ exe/ckancli.rb help

All available commands and options are also described in command line help.

Mandatory options for CSV upload are:

• directory "-d". Local path to file/directory or URL to online resource (starting with http or https).
• global configuration "-c". Path to global configuration file. Path should be absolute or relative to directory option. See configuration section for more information.
• resource configuration "-r". Path to resource metadata file. Path should be absolute or relative to directory option. See configuration section for more information.

$ exe/ckancli.rb upload -d /tmp/some_csv_file.csv -c example_files/config.json -r example_files/resource.json

To validate CSV resources before uploading, use validation schema option:

• validation schema "-v". Path to JSON validation schema file. Path should be absolute or relative to directory option. See configuration section for more information.

$ exe/ckancli.rb upload -d /tmp/some_csv_file.csv -c example_files/config.json -r example_files/resource.json -v example_files/schema.json

By default, CKAN CLI processes only CSV files. To process all files in direcotry, ignoring extension, use ignore extension option:

• ignore extension "-i". If set, all files in specified directory will be processed.

$ exe/ckancli.rb upload d /tmp/some_csv_file.csv -c example_files/config.json -r example_files/resource.json -i

By default, CKAN CLI will not overwrite resources if the same is found by resource identifier. To overwrite existing resource, use overwrite option:

• overwrite "-w". If set, existing resource will be overwritten.

$ exe/ckancli.rb upload -d /tmp/some_csv_file.csv -c example_files/config.json -r example_files/resource.json -w

To automatically set resources modified date in CKAN, use update modified option:

• update modified "-m". If set, resources metadata field "modified date" will be updated to current date.

$ exe/ckancli.rb upload -d /tmp/some_csv_file.csv -c example_files/config.json -r example_files/resource.json -m

To also update package metadata, use dataset configuration option:

• package configuration "-p". Path to package metadata file. Path should be absolute or relative to directory option. See configuration section for more information.

$ exe/ckancli.rb upload -d /tmp/some_csv_file.csv -c example_files/config.json -r example_files/resource.json -p example_files/package.json

Example files including schemas and configurations are located in 'example_files' directory.
