GREI 6: HDV Task - Support for Research Objects (e.g., software, computational workflows)

[cmbz]

Overview

The work defined here replaces the following NIH OTA plans:

• Support software metadata [was Aim 1.3.1]
• Research and discovery phase for biomedical workflows support[was Aim 1.3.2]
• Support biomedical workflows [was Aim 2.3.1]
• Research and discovery phase for containers and research objects support [was Aim 2.3.1]
• Apply container, RO, workflows support to a few NIH-funded projects [was Aim 4.3.1]

Tasks

• Proposal: Supporting Multiple Dataset Types in Dataverse #110
• Define and create issues to implement multiple dataset type support
• HDV Task: Investigate requirements to support frictionless data #329

Issues

Dataverse DataType Support

• HDV Task: GREI 6 - Initial Dataset Type Support #307
• Create the datasetType class and add UI facet dataverse#10517
• Implement a global setting and/or API for dataset types dataverse#10518
• Implement datasetType metadata block support (at global level) dataverse#10519
• Implement list of allowed datasetType licenses (at global level) dataverse#10520

RO-Crate and Bagit-Related Issues

• Add Additional Bag-info.txt Configuration dataverse#10226
• Data Package JSON schema dataverse#4747 (Use issue to decide if Dataverse will support this, close with note if not)
• Experimental dataset JSON GET API doesn't return multi-valued fields as arrays dataverse#9495 (Resolve issue, decide if Dataverse will support)
• Feature Request/Idea : generated zip files naming dependent of dataset (no longer dataverse_files.zip) dataverse#9620
• Capsulization and Packaging of Replication Objects in Dataverse dataverse#6085 (Evaluate which parts are already completed and which may need to be implemented)
• Feature Request/Idea: RO-Crate support dataverse#8688
• RO-Crate exporter PoC dataverse#10086
• Feature Request/Idea: Standardize standard license configuration dataverse#8512 (Use issue to investigate further)
• md5 hash displayed to user is wrong dataverse#9501 (Use issue to investigate further)
