An Angular tool for curating data by adding labels, groups, weights and other details to assist with informed reuse.
This stand-alone component is built to complement The Dataverse Project by adding data level metadata.
A demo of the tool is available here; note that this Github pages demo is not recommended for use in a production environment: https://scholarsportal.github.io/Dataverse-Data-Curation-Tool/?dfId=40620&siteUrl=https://dataverse.scholarsportal.info.
The Data Curation Tool was created using Angular CLI version 7.
In order to generate node_modules run npm install.
See the Dataverse guide for more information about installing external tools.
There are three ways to run the Data Curation Tool with Dataverse:
The simplest way to run the Data Curation Tool is to use GitHub Pages as the host. This is not recomended for production use, but is useful for testing the application.
To do this, download DataCuration.json to the server running Dataverse and run the following command:
curl -X POST -H 'Content-type: application/json' --upload-file DataCuration.json http://localhost:8080/api/admin/externalTools
Another way to use Data Curation tool with Dataverse is to install it in dataverseDirectory/src/main/webapp/dct_explore.
To do this, download the Dataverse-Data-Curation-Tool directory, download your npm packages with npm install, and run ng build --prod --base-href=dct_explore.
Next, copy the contents of Dataverse-Data-Curation-Tool/dist into dataverseDirectory/src/main/webapp/dct_explore.
Compile Dataverse and deploy it, then run the following command:
curl -X POST -H 'Content-type: application/json' --upload-file DataCurationLocalConfigure.json http://localhost:8080/api/admin/externalTools
The recommended way to install the Data Curation Tool is to use your own webserver. Download your npm packages with npm install, and then compile the Data Curation Tool by running ng build --prod --base-href {URL of your application}.
Copy the contents of Dataverse-Data-Curation-Tool/dist into a dedicated folder on your webserver.
In the DataCuration.json file, edit the folowing line: "toolUrl": "https://scholarsportal.github.io/Dataverse-Data-Curation-Tool/", replacing https://scholarsportal.github.io/Dataverse-Data-Curation-Tool/ with the url of your webserver.
Then on your local machine that runs Dataverse execute the folowing command:
curl -X POST -H 'Content-type: application/json' --upload-file DataCuration.json http://localhost:8080/api/admin/externalTools
