How to access a data package in a repo subdirectory? #78

Open peterdesmet opened 10 years ago

peterdesmet commented 10 years ago

I created a data package in a subdirectory of a repository: https://github.com/enram/data-challenge/tree/master/data/bird-migration-altitude-profiles

What URL should I use so that git-data-viewer can read the data package?

Hm, that's a very good question. The viewer currently expects the datapackage.json to be in the root of the git repo. It might work if you create a gh-pages branch and point the viewer to http://enram.github.io/data-challenge/data, but I'm not sure.

I'm trying to test the suggestion, but I currently get a 504 Gateway Time-out for http://git-viewer.labs.theodi.org/

The box was completely dead, unfortunately. We're bringing a new one up using our new deployment infrastructure - will let you know when it's back.
