This repository contains the BRegDCAT-AP v2 Editor proof-of-concept implementation. It allows public administrations to:

• Create and edit BRegDCAT-AP v2 entities (e.g. agents, catalogs) that are part of Base Registry datasets. Entities are persisted in a Virtuoso triple store.
• Visualise Base Registry datasets in a human-readable way.
• Export these datasets in an interoperable, machine-readable format conformant to the BRegDCAT-AP v2 specification.

A self-contained docker-compose configuration file is provided to ease the deployment process:

$ cd path_to_editor
$ docker-compose up --build

The application can be then accessed on http://localhost:40080/

The tool is based on Drupal, please see Drupal's documentation for more information.

The requirements and service dependencies for the local environment are:

• PHP 5.6.
• Drupal 7.42.
• Virtuoso triple store.
• MySQL.

The configuration of the MySQL database can be modified in sites/default/settings.php. It points to the mysql hostname of the container defined in the Compose file by default:

...

$databases = array (
  'default' => 
  array (
    'default' => 
    array (
      'database' => 'dcat-editor',
      'username' => 'root',
      'password' => 'root',
      'host' => 'mysql',
      'port' => '',
      'driver' => 'mysql',
      'prefix' => '',
    ),
  ),
);

...

Modifying the configuration of the Virtuoso triple store would require replacing all hardcoded references to the virtuoso hostname in:

• sites/all/modules/export/export.module

Once the Drupal application is up and running please make sure to also update the SPARQL endpoint in the following configuration pages:

• ARC2 store settings: admin/config/services/arc2_store
• SPARQL Endpoints Registry: admin/structure/sparql_registry
