The ckanext-multilang CKAN’s extension provides a way to localize your CKAN’s title and description contents for: Dataset, Resources, Tags, Organizations and Groups. This extension creates some new DB tables for this purpose containing localized contents in base of the configured CKAN’s locales in configuration. Accessing the CKAN GUI in one language, the User can create a new Dataset and automatically new localized records for that language will be created in the multilang tables. Changing the GUI’s language, the user will be able to edit the same Dataset to specify ‘title’ and ‘description’ for the new selected language. Dataset’s title and description will automatically change simply switching the language from the dropdown. The extension also provides a CSW harvester built on top of ckanext-spatial that can retrieve localized content from CSW metadata containing gmd:PT_FreeText XML elements.
