I am new to ckan. After successfully installing ckan when I went to use some ckan plugins as an example ckan-basiccharts i am getting ValueError. After some research, I understand it's related to web-assets. In basicchart folder, I change the {%resource ....} to {%asset ..}
ckanext/basiccharts/theme/templates/basechart_view.html in .html file
but I am still getting the same error. Can anyone please explain the logic behind this error and some tricks to get rid of this error?

For migration to webassets, you need to create an assets folder and place there .js and .css files of the extension. In addition, you need to create webassets.yml inside the assets folder where those .js and .css files should be registered. This process is described here and here.
But you can use this version of ckanext-basiccharts that is compatible with current ckan versions.
