Introduction

In this document you’ll only find specific information for installing some CKAN official and unofficial extensions.

GeoNetwork harvester

The GeoNetwork harvester extends the base CSW harvester type, adding some features as explained in geonetwork_harvester_params, such as:

• handling the default_tags and default_extras parameters;
• adding a couple of extras entries which contain URLs to GeoNetwork info.

cd default/src/
git clone https://github.com/geosolutions-it/ckanext-geonetwork.git
cd ckanext-geonetwork
python setup.py develop

Add plugin in /etc/ckan/default/production.ini:
