Create a DOI to cite hs_restclient

[amabdallah]

Hi,

Thanks for the very useful tool. Would you please create a DOI for this repository so I can cite it appropriately? needless to say that peer-reviewed papers/journals love DOIs :)

Here is how you could easily do it with Zonedo just in case. Please remeber to add the badge to the ReadME

Thank you so much for the handy tool

@dtarb @martinseul - It looks like @amabdallah would like to cite the hs_restclient. We could you like me to setup a doi for it?

FYI - I just did this for one of my GitHub repos. The process of automatically setting up Zenodo to snapshot releases and and create a DOI for each one is pretty straightforward. But, it copies limited metadata to describe the release from GitHub into Zenodo and it doesn't always show up the way you would want it to. For example, some people showed up as authors identified only by their GitHub user name (and not everyone's GitHub username is publication ready!!).

We should probably do this, but somebody should be in charge of going back and making sure the metadata is coherent in Zenodo for each release that is created.
