Repository Registry

We need a service/registry that informs about the available repositories.

Until we have that formalized, we will collect the information about individual providers here.

Candidate Services, Implementing Endpoints

Current Issues

At the time of writing (3th of may) there are some issues with all of the sru/cql implementations. We will list them here per service.

http://www.meertens.knaw.nl/mimore/srucql/

  • Does not implement x-cmd-collections
  • <sru:recordData/> is a closed element instead of wrapping around the <css:Resource>
  • How to generate link to resource containing hit?

http://cqlservlet.mpi.nl/

  • Not XML-ified content in the DataView? element. Should have at least wrapping of elements around the hit.

http://corpus3.aac.ac.at/ddconsru

  • Does not implement scan on cmd.collections
  • How to generate link to resource containing hit?

http://gilmere.upf.edu/girona_sru

  • Encodes searchretrieve responce in DCU format (and not our format)
  • Does not seem to use x-cmd-collections

http://clarin.aac.ac.at/MDService2/sru

  • searchRetrieve returns a completely different xml thing.
  • scan on cmd.collections generates a nullpointerexception

http://ds.dev.clarin.inl.nl/cqlwebapp/cql

  • Doesn't seem to return any results.
