Dataset Registry

This respository contains the source code of the Dataset Registry module developed within the WP3 of the SALTED Project. The aim of this module is the registration of datasets, as part of the User Connector within the SALTED Platform to EDP connector.

To this end, this component receives the information filled in by the partner in our CKAN form, transforms it to NGSI-LD using the DCAT-AP data models (Catalogue, Dataset and Distribution) provided by the Smart Data Models initiative, and it finally upserts these entities into the Federator Context Broker. This way, fully customise descriptions are achieves, allowing the partners to characterise their datasets to their needs.

Installation

Once you have the repository code in your machine, follow the next steps:

1. Create a .env file and add your information (parameters to change: EXTERNAL_PORT, INTERNAL_PORT, HOST_NAME).

   cp .env.template .env

2. Create a config.json file in the src/ folder and set up the variables to your needs.

   cp config.json.template config.json

3. Deploy the docker

   docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml build
   docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up
   
   # or do it together
   docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up --build
