3.1 Request / Create CKAN Instance (Potential Instance Admin) #16

Open rossjones opened 9 years ago

rossjones commented 9 years ago
As a (potential) Instance Admin who wants a new CKAN site I want to have a 
simple web-based interface for requesting a new instance (and having instance 
rapidly booted in response) so that I have a new CKAN site quickly and easily

Notes
* Simple form where you can fill in your details (e.g. Name, Org, Email, Password)
* Notified in response to submission and/or by email (soon after) that new 
  instance is ready and here is the url
* Go to that instance and go through any next steps (cf US#1.4)
   a. Note US#1.4 could be less relevant if relevant info captured in form here and 
      used in booting the instance ...
* User experience should be excellent (as simple and easy to use as possibly but 
  no simpler!)
* Instance should be booted automatically (suggest using the library / scripts 
   produced re US 2.2)
   a. Simpler option (less preferred) is email to Cloud Admin who takes some 
       action (see next US 3.2)

We'll implement this after we get the basic version up and running. I've created an issue: https://github.com/boxkite/ckan-multisite/issues/7
