expanding metadata about datasets

[pheyvaer]

Is there a way to expand the metadata that is shown on the index page about the datasets?

Extending the metadata with custom information you mean?

All this information is dynamically generated at the moment. But I guess it should be possible to add support for this, by for example loading a global datasets metadata file, which will be included in the index datasource.

Yes indeed custom information. For example, a URL to the complete dump.

This is perfectly possible through a view extension, which can attach new triples to an existing view.

For instance, the summary view adds an extra metadata triple. To activate, these views need to be listed in the configuration.
