dataset_version_list is always returning empty list

[zelima]

I've created dataset, update and expecting that dataset_version_list will have 2 elements in it but I'm always getting empty list. Eg https://dataexchange-pock.gatesfoundation.org/api/3/action/dataset_version_list?dataset=9281ccaf-89a4-464a-88d9-efb41f080237

I might misunderstanding how versions are created, but my expectations are that they should be created on every change I make to the dataset.

Acceptance Criteria

• [ ] dataset_version_list works as expected
• [ ] Or if my expectations are wrong - it's documented better...

tasks

• [ ] Do analysis

Analysis

Looking at the code dataset_version_list queries DB filtering the package_version table by package_id. https://github.com/datopian/ckanext-versioning/blob/master/ckanext/versioning/logic/action.py#L196-L214

Looking at the DB package_version table is empty

 SELECT * FROM  package_version;
 id | package_id | package_revision_id | name | description | creator_user_id | created 
----+------------+---------------------+------+-------------+-----------------+---------
(0 rows)

WONTFIX / INVALID. @zelima as clarified versions are really "revision tags" they are not "revisions" so you won't see anything in that API unless you explicit create a revision tag (version). I also think you may be testing without the final code being merged.
