# Datawiki

Hello! Welcome to the DataWiki project page :)

DataWiki runs on the Google AppEngine for Java platform and so may also be run on private networks or offline on a laptop in the field.

DataWiki has the design and features listed below, with TODO items currently being developed.

## Demo

http://datawiki.appspot.com/

## REST API

See the DataHub page that datawiki uses for its server-side platform:

http://code.google.com/p/datahub

## Design

### User Flows

Create and edit simple formats to define the content of a dataset.

Can create, edit, delete, list and search items within the dataset.

Paging and sorting for list and search.

If the format includes geo coords, can be displayed on a map, though limited to the same paging operation limits, i.e. N at a time.

TODO:

  * complex format definition, via defining formats in terms of others, e.g. Missing Person reports = vCard (who) + GeoRSS (last seen) + string (current status note)

  * image upload

### Security

Login managed by Google (i.e. @gmail and also third-party)

Access Control Lists, kept separately for dataset and for items, so users can create and control their own entries.

TODO:

  * differential views based on ACLs

  * CAPTCHAs

### Platforms

Java on Google App Engine, so highly reliable and scalable (modulo bugs!)

Angular JS frontend (modified from angularjs.org sources).

REST API supporting JSON.

TODO:

  * REST w/XML

  * Federation via Atom

  * Open Data Kit for Android-based collection.

  * Plugin for Google Spreadsheets/Fusion Tables.
