This is a repo for demonstrating how to use the CKAN API to obtain general counts from a CKAN site, using the MN Geospatial Commons (gisdata.mn.gov) as the subject.

HAS:

• Basic total package (resource) count
• Count of organizations (publishers)
• List of publishers with a count of their total resources
• Decent Bootstrap table style
• List and link of recently created resources at the bottom (but only if a new resource exists in the list of the most recent 150 modified)

NEEDS:

• Sorting of bootstrap table
• More responsive style for larger screens
