Request: Publish ckanext-pages to PyPI for production deployments #146
Description
Problem
ckanext-pages is only available via Git installation, creating deployment challenges in:
- Corporate environments with restricted Git access
- CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions) with network restrictions
- Air-gapped production environments
Error example:
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/ckan/ckanext-pages.git/': SSL certificate problem
Requested Solution
Publish to PyPI to enable: pip install ckanext-pages
Benefits
- Production deployment reliability
- Consistency with other CKAN extensions (ckanext-scheming, ckanext-pdfview)
- Standard dependency management
Additional Info
CKAN version: 2.10+
Current blocker: This prevents automated deployments in our production pipeline
Offer: Happy to help test PyPI releases if needed
