LocalCKAN seems to be broken about ckanapi

[wardi]

LocalCKAN needs to be run from a ckan extension/paster command so that all the DB setup has happened.

You can either use RemoteCKAN or look at what the ckanapi CLI does to launch itself as a paster command and do that.

I'm getting the same error when trying to initialize LocalCKAN() from a paster command :(

[augeas]

Give LocalCKAN a username. From within my paster command:

local = ckanapi.LocalCKAN(username='admin')

[wardi]

@seanh are you creating it at the module level or something? That might be too early to grab the site user from the db.

Can't remember. I'll re-open this if I come across it again

[metaodi]

I'm getting the exact same error. Is there an easy fix for it? Btw: if I provide a username it just crashes on the next call (package_show in my case).

I found the solution, don't forget to call self._load_config() in the paster command, this ensures, that everything is setup correctly, see here:

ckanapi/ckanapi/cli/paster.py

Line 27 in 341c5a5

self._load_config()
