Frictionless Data support

Added support for automatically generating Frictionless Data Packages with completely configurable options for mapping the iRODS metadata keys to the required Frictionless Data values. Any CSV or TSV files can be added as tabular data resources. This initial support is for the general column types and support for the format and other fields defined by the Frictionless Data Table Schema will follow in subsequent upgrades.

1.6.0

Added ability to show the data object checksums in the listings table

1.5.1

This is a minor bugfix release. For more information of the features, please see EIRods-DAV 1.5

Changelog

• Added workaround for the fact that mod_dav.so assumes that it is the handler for the REST API calls (https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/branches/2.4.x/modules/dav/main/mod_dav.c?revision=1807753&view=markup#l4863)
• Fixed response content-types for the views/... calls
• Object type now included when using the REST API calls that get id information for given paths
• The REST handler now makes sure that the request is really for it before getting the request parameters so it can be used with other modules that are also reading these.

EIRods-DAV 1.5

Introduction

This update has an upgraded REST API along with complimentary HTML views for some of the API calls. It also has the ability for users to log in so they can see their own iRODS directories as well as the default public ones. Another big feature is that the html that can be inserted into various points within the listings can now insert the content returned from addresses at separate web servers. These addresses can include dynamic parameters such as the iRODS collection or data object ids as well as any metadata values. For more information, please take a look at the documentation for configuring the HTML sections.

This is used to integrate the project information at the Designing Future Wheat data portal with one such example.
