---+ Capabilities Response, Proposal I
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
---+++++ General Idea
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We could add more information to this capabilities request. Everything related to machine readable data describing the capabilities, abilities of a providers resource like the limit to the number of returned records. Also every concept should include a flag indicating whether it is searchable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Information we would like to add to the capabilities:
|
||
|
|
* provider configuration parameters affecting the response:
|
||
|
|
* minQueryTermLength
|
||
|
|
* maxSearchResponseRecords
|
||
|
|
* maxInventoryResponseRecords
|
||
|
|
* type & version of the protocols supported by a software
|
||
|
|
* type of FilterOperators supported by a software
|
||
|
|
* logical
|
||
|
|
* comparative
|
||
|
|
* functions
|
||
|
|
* min, max
|
||
|
|
* len
|
||
|
|
* SpatialOperators
|
||
|
|
* type of operations or RequestMethods supported
|
||
|
|
* is ContentCompression supported ?
|
||
|
|
* ConceptualSchemas and their "mapped" concepts supported (see above)
|
||
|
|
* a slot for security related information
|
||
|
|
* access restriction
|
||
|
|
* encryption mechanisms
|
||
|
