Grouping datasets #305

Closed jodiegardiner closed 1 year ago

jodiegardiner commented 5 years ago

Pakistan wind measurement dataset is regularly updated with various data files for 11 locations. For such datasets, can we make folders to group data files?

We can add support for the Grouping feature with this one.

The group feature is implemented. You can add datasets to groups at package creation or update time. Those datasets will then be grouped together and discoverable alongside others in their group. Works great for Topics. We can pre-create a group (for example, SOLAR, or WIND) or new ones can be made by an editor simply by choosing an as-unused name. We can tweak who can access the creation of groups easily, currently it is restricted to users who have the correct authorization.

Whilst that doesn't directly address the feature here, similar logic could be used to link together resources. The add resource form will require an update to implement this.

When we do this, we can include the progress bar (#315 ) in the same update.

Hi

This feature has been implemented from a technical perspective but doesn't yet look at all shiny enough for our high standards.

The resources are grouped by matching together similarity in name, so it's not foolproof.

We need to decide on a solution to display this to the user. I'll revert soon on this.
