Data.gov is an open data website created by the U.S. General Services Administration that is based on two robust open source projects: CKAN and WordPress. The data catalog at catalog.data.gov is powered by CKAN, while the content seen at Data.gov is powered by WordPress.

This repository provides the issue tracker for all code, bugs, and feature requests related to Data.gov. Currently the repository is only used for source version control on the code for the WordPress template, but you will also find pointers to the relevant CKAN code and additional resources documented below.

CKAN

CKAN. The Data.gov team recommends the latest version of CKAN.
Data.gov CKAN. The code powering the Data.gov instance of CKAN.
- release-datagov - The main development branch used for the current catalog.data.gov.
- GSA/ckanext-geodatagov - Most data.gov specific CKAN customizations are contained within this extension, but the extension also provides additional geospatial capabilities.
- ckanext-datagovtheme - The CKAN theme for catalog.data.gov
Extensions. The Data.gov team has developed several CKAN extensions, but these are still in the process of being packaged for more widespread use. The full list of installed extensions can be seen via the CKAN API. Custom extensions include:
- GSA/ckanext-datajson - A CKAN extension for Project Open Data /data.json harvesting and publishing.
- GSA/USMetadata - A CKAN extension to support the Project Open Data metadata schema within the CKAN user interface.
Other Tools
- GSA/ckan-php-client - A CKAN php client for Data.gov.

Deployment. We are in the process of improving documentation and hope to provide build scripts and configurations for tools like Vagrant to make setting up the Data.gov CKAN easier for others.

Data.gov WordPress template. The code powering the Data.gov WordPress template.
