[EP-tech] autocomplete based on Sherpa/Romeo
CAUTION: This e-mail originated outside the University of Southampton.
Sherpa/Romeo recently changed their API, with the following note on their site, https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fv2.sherpa.ac.uk%2Fapi%2F&data=04%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C53846328db49453089e808d8971048ff%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0%7C0%7C637425443483918143%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=rr5B9XIOgUHTp%2FkM40gGshpV44K0YyBGee3yzyiZ%2BU8%3D&reserved=0 : Note that all of our APIs were upgraded between 2017 and 2020, with previous versions being retired.
We were using the API for autocomplete in our repository, along the lines of this documentation: https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwiki.eprints.org%2Fw%2FAuthority_Lists%23Creating_Your_Own_Authority_File_.28complex.29&data=04%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C53846328db49453089e808d8971048ff%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0%7C0%7C637425443483918143%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=fNOC5eIRBSlOLnwndTvkj0WmtCYdyZS1EQP2fo7YwiM%3D&reserved=0
I think our implementation was based on this: https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Ffiles.eprints.org%2F799%2F&data=04%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C53846328db49453089e808d8971048ff%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0%7C0%7C637425443483918143%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=criiC%2BeRwdqYfSIoA0cMrKtJTjWmkPb6%2FkydD%2Ftxux4%3D&reserved=0 , which makes the statement "It uses current v2.9 RoMEO API", but in fact refers to a different "V2" than the current V2 at Sherpa Romeo.
I am probably not the only one who was using something like this for autocomplete of journal ISSN and publisher policies in their repository. Even if the old API still responds, it doesn't seem like we should be relying on that, as it seems likely to contain out-of-date info at best.
To address that issue, I re-wrote this script to use the new "V2" api for our repository, and it is working for us. I decided to make it available on GitHub, to give people a better place to start than from scratch.
Here it is: https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fphotomedia%2FSherpaRomeoAutocompleteEPrints&data=04%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C53846328db49453089e808d8971048ff%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0%7C0%7C637425443483918143%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=YhChlgiNzMUGzKk46aVh1jVoZSgCCNxWOcMqU5elv0s%3D&reserved=0
Let me know if you think it useful, and if it is, perhaps I could transfer this repository to "eprintsug", so that it can be generalized and improved by the community.
Cheers,
Tomasz
