Faster datastore_search in CKAN
August 4, 2017
CKAN’s datastore_search
now comes with format options and is up to 17x faster.
This article covers:
- new total row calculation
- new result generation
- new record formats
TL;DR:
- Use CKAN 2.7 or later and resource views and other code that uses
datastore_search
is faster with no other changes required - Update your
datastore_search
client code to use one of the newrecords_format=csv
and/orinclude_total=false
options to make it much, much faster
