Trying to get it to work on ckan docker setup errors out cause missing IFormRedirect interface

[cmbodley]

I use https://github.com/ckan/ckan-docker to setup my ckan
I'm trying to get datapusher-plus to work but I hit a snag

is the error I get after installing the software it errors out on Line 39 of the plugin.py

So I'm on CKAN version 2.11 and I have checked other releases from 2.10 and they don't have that interface till I found.

Its in an pending pull request that hasn't been merged in.

ckan/ckan#8657

I'm not sure what to fix but this is definitely an undocumented requirement or its no longer compatible with 2.10+ till this PR gets merged in.

Ok I did clone it and got it working with excel files but I did encounter some issues nothing to big
I saw the documentation said this does require the schemingplug in which is good. I pointed it to the include dataset-druf.yaml

This gave me errors it said that the preset tag_string_autocomplete_hidden doesn't exist.
I changed it to preset tag_string_autocomplete then it said the validator check_end_date doesn't exist so I just removed that and got this to work.

It had an error on CSV parsing but I suspect its cause the container image needs some more libraries installed but that is a Monday problem.

Ok I still think this is good info for people that may want to potentially use this plug in but in its current state it isn't 100% working. The DRUF stuff should be its own plug in IMO. How ever for the folks that want to see the plug in work here is a repo I made of the current docker setup https://github.com/cmbodley/ckan-docker-compose-datapusher-plus It shows I basically commented a line out and altered the schema yaml to get it to work and it does work. I appreciate the folks that made this repo and understand they are making this for their clients. DRUF is a good idea but I think data pushing and data resource upload first should be two different plugins as one is just for pushing and the other is for pulling.

Thanks for your report @cmbodley .

The DRUF was designed primarily using TX use cases and has not been totally generalized for any CKAN site to readily use.

We're now doing a push to make it so that any CKAN 2.11 (2.10?) site can use DP+ and take advantage of the DRUF out-of-the-box.

Once generalized, we'll make a proper release and will be sure to ping you then.
