CKAN (the apt-get for opendata) is an open-source portal application developed by the OKFN.
In order to make the getting started part easier I created this shell script to create a CKAN instance with the help of vagrant, a nice wrapper around virtualbox that creates and manages virtual machines.
- Install Virtualbox
- Install vagrant
- Clone this repository
git clone git://github.com/philippkueng/ckan-vagrant.git
- Move to the directory with your terminal application
cd ckan-vagrant/
- Create the instance
vagrant up
- Go get some coffee (it takes up to 15 minutes)
- Add to following line to
/etc/hosts
:192.168.19.97 ckan.lo
- Open http://ckan.lo in your browser.
