Datastore import status - non-CSV files always "waiting"

[stefan-korn]

Checking the datastore import status at admin/dkan/datastore/status I see for any non csv file "waiting" for fetch, store and post import.

Reading the docs at https://dkan.readthedocs.io/en/latest/components/dkan_datastore.html I suppose that only CSV files are parsed and stored in the datastore.

Why are non-CSV files shown in the datastore import status at all and for what are they "waiting"?

How to reproduce this:

Set up a dev site with sample content:

ddev dkan-site-install
ddev drush pm-enable sample_content
ddev drush dkan:sample-content:create
ddev drush cron
ddev drush cron

Log in and visit admin/dkan/datastore/status

This is because the dataset has resources which are not CSV files. It's true that DKAN won't localize or import files that are not CSV files.

But does it make sense then to output these files in the datastore status? "Waiting" suggests that something is happening with these resources, but actually it is not.

I was just adding repro steps...

@stefan-korn No it does not make sense to have non-csv resources listed in this dashboard, filtering them out is in the roadmap.
