@---+ Methods Supported by the Protocol
|
|
|
|
Currently the following request methods are identified to be useful for the new protocol.
|
|
They are mainly based on the DifferencesInRequestTypes of the CurrentProtocols.
|
|
Are they sufficient or do we need more convenient methods for specific problems?
|
|
|
|
|
|
---+++++ Major Request Types
|
|
|
|
* ProtocolFeaturesRequestMethodsPingRequest: Check if a provider or resource is online.
|
|
* ProtocolFeaturesRequestMethodsCapabilitiesRequest: Ask the provider for his "know concepts". That is metadata about the concepts that are mapped and are existing in his database.
|
|
* ProtocolFeaturesRequestMethodsMetadataRequest: Request a providers metadata only.
|
|
* ProtocolFeaturesRequestMethodsSearchRequest: Search a datasource to receive structured data.
|
|
* ProtocolFeaturesRequestMethodsInventoryRequest: Ask for a list of distinct terms within 1 concept. A scan request in BioCASE terminology.
|
|
* ProtocolFeaturesRequestMethodsCountRequest: Request the record number of a scan or a search. Is this a request on its own?
|
|
|
|
---+++++ Potential New Request Types
|
|
|
|
* a method for replication or complete data dumping?
|
|
|
|
* a method for write access to databases for feedbacks and annotations? What kind of requests do we need for this?Updates, Inserts, Deletes?
