Factor this out into a mini library e.g. datapackage-check-py #2

Could be in main datapackage-py but that would bring goodtables dependency ... (which is a bit massive)

import datapackage
import datapackagecheck

dp = datapackage.DataPackage('...')
checker = datapackagecheck.Checker(dp)
checker.structure()
checker.schema()

Question: is it worth doing versus just giving the stuff by hand? Probably, especially if we upgrade reporting ...

Implementation:

we have the JTS in the datapackage
we have data links in the datapackage.json

I don't see the point. Better to just make the small enhancements GoodTables needs to be a "data package checker".

rufuspollock commented 8 years ago

@pwalsh ok - but goodtables does not natively support data packages afaict. Is that planned?
