CKAN extension that makes wrapped API calls for audited access to CKAN datastore resources. This extension adds two new API calls:

• /api/action/audited_datastore_create
• /api/action/audited_datastore_update

Wrapper on datastore_create API call. Adds two new timestamp columns / fields:

• modified_timestamp
• deleted_timestamp

This API calls all the parameters as datastore_create and adds an optional parameter:

• update_time (ISO date time) - time set to modified_timestamp when creating records (optional). If not given, system actual time will be used.
• primary_key - changed to mandatory parameter (see datastore_create)

Wrapper on datastore_upsert API call. Ensures that only changed records to be updated (The modified_timestamp to be set). For the missing records in given parameters, also sets the deleted_timestamp field.

Additional parameters:

• update_time (ISO date time) - time set to modified_timestamp for records updated by this API call (optional). If not given, system actual time will be used.
• delete_absent (boolean) - if True, records not present in the API request will be marked as deleted (optional, default value is True)

In the response JSON, there are only records that were created/updated (have only modified_timestamp set) or 'deleted' (have modified_timestamp and deleted_timestamp set).
