Keywords are not downloaded from GeoNode #164

Closed uniomni closed 13 years ago

uniomni commented 13 years ago

Keywords are uploaded to the embedded GeoServer and when results are calculated, they are carried back to the application. However, when any layer is downloaded from GeoNode it does not create a keywords file. This means that plugins do not have access to them.

It will be fairly easy to generate this file in the download() function. However, this is still pointing to a clear need for a one-to-one relationship between metadata stored in GeoNode and the files that upload/download to/from it.

There are two issues here

Short term: Add this functionality to download() - Ole will do this Raise the bigger issue with the GeoNode community: How come metadata cannot be downloaded and uploaded along with the data files? -

This is also critical for letting plugins extract hazard and exposure layers based on keywords as we planned a while back.
