portaljs-add-datasetAdd a dataset (CSV, TSV, JSON, or GeoJSON) to an existing PortalJS portal. Appends an entry to datasets.json so the catalog and showcase render it automatically; routes the data by source (local file vs remote URL) — R2 via Git LFS by default, remote URLs by passthrough. Use when registering a new dataset in a scaffolded portal.0 installsportaljs-new-portalScaffold a new PortalJS data portal from a brief. Copies the canonical template from examples/portaljs-catalog and substitutes project tokens. Use when starting a brand-new data portal project from scratch.0 installsportaljs-connect-ckanWire a scaffolded PortalJS portal to a CKAN backend over its API. Generates a tiny server-side fetch client (no runtime dependency) and feeds the /search catalog and /@namespace/slug showcases from CKAN instead of datasets.json. Use when connecting an existing portal to a live CKAN instance instead of a static manifest.0 installsportaljs-add-mapRender a GeoJSON dataset on an interactive Leaflet map in the Views section of a dataset's showcase. Installs react-leaflet and a Map component, then renders the map for the chosen dataset. Use when a dataset's data is geographic and a map view is needed alongside the showcase's default metadata and download.0 installsportaljs-add-chartAdd a chart (line, bar, area, pie, or scatter) to a dataset's showcase in a PortalJS portal. Installs recharts, writes a reusable Chart component, and renders it in the showcase Views section. Use when visualizing a dataset already registered in datasets.json.0 installsportaljs-deployDeploy a PortalJS portal to PortalJS Arc — Datopian-managed static hosting on Cloudflare. Builds a static export, uploads it, and returns a live SLUG.arc.portaljs.com URL. One command, one target. Use when a portal is ready to publish or redeploy to a live URL.0 installs

portaljs-add-dcatMake a PortalJS portal harvestable by national/EU/US open-data portals — emit standards-compliant DCAT catalog feeds (DCAT 2/3, DCAT-AP, DCAT-US, national profiles) in JSON-LD, Turtle, and RDF/XML at build, with autodiscovery and per-profile conformance checking. Use when a portal needs to be harvested by data.europa.eu, data.gov, or a national open-data catalog.0 installsportaljs-add-geoAuto-ingest a geospatial file (GeoJSON, Shapefile, GeoPackage, KML/KMZ, FlatGeobuf, CSV-with-geometry) into a PortalJS portal on the user's own machine, with no server. Normalizes CRS to EPSG:4326, derives a PMTiles render tier and a GeoParquet query tier, pushes all three artifacts to Cloudflare R2 via Git LFS, and appends one dual-tier datasets.json entry the showcase auto-renders. Use when the source is a vector geo format that needs a map or spatial-query view.0 installsportaljs-check-data-qualityAudit a local or remote tabular file (CSV/TSV) for common data quality issues — schema, nulls, types, duplicates. Read-only. Use when a dataset needs a quality check before publishing, or a showcase renders wrong (blank cells, garbled numbers, an unsortable date column) and the cause needs isolating.0 installsportaljs-define-schemaDefine a dataset's metadata profile — infer a Frictionless Table Schema from its data, add Data Package metadata (license, sources, keywords), and write it into datasets.json so the showcase renders a typed field table. Extend or customize via the L0-L3 profile ladder. Use when a registered dataset needs field types, constraints, or catalog metadata before publishing.0 installsportaljs-migrateMigrate (harvest) datasets between open-data platforms. Reads CKAN, a DCAT-US /data.json catalog (DKAN, ArcGIS Hub, data.gov), a DCAT / DCAT-AP RDF feed (JSON-LD, Turtle, or RDF/XML), Socrata, OpenDataSoft, or an ArcGIS FeatureServer, and writes them to a static PortalJS catalog or pushes them into a CKAN instance over its API. Use when moving datasets from an external open-data platform into a PortalJS portal, or bridging one CKAN instance to another.0 installsarcgis-to-portaljsMigrate a whole ArcGIS Hub site into a PortalJS Arc portal end-to-end. Harvests the Hub /data.json (DCAT-US) inventory, exports every FeatureService layer through the ArcGIS REST query API with resultOffset paging, converts each to the serverless dual tier (PMTiles render + GeoParquet query) with tabular items to Parquet, pushes everything to Cloudflare R2 via Git LFS, appends dual-tier datasets.json entries, and writes a source-vs-derived parity report. Use to move a City or sector ArcGIS Hub open-data portal onto PortalJS with no server-side compute.0 installs
