ckanext-partialview
A CKAN extension that adds a partial view plugin for CKAN resources. This extension shows only the first few rows of tabular data in the resource preview, providing a quick overview without loading the entire dataset. The number of displayed rows can be configured through the CKAN configuration file using the ckanext.partialview_max_rows
setting. The extension is particularly useful for large datasets where a full preview would be resource-intensive or where only a sample of the data is needed for understanding the structure.
Features
- Configurable maximum number of rows to display
- Support for various tabular data formats
- Lightweight preview functionality
- Easy integration with existing CKAN installations
Installation
Install via pip from the GitHub repository and enable the plugin in your CKAN configuration.
