Overview
What's the Plan? Get together to make some simple Discovery clients! All are welcome, no previous experience or coding skills necessary! Two back-to-back sessions on Tuesday July 17: 1:30 - 3:00, and 3:30 - 5:00.
Non-Coders
Geoportal
We will have a Geoportal from our testbed up and running. You'll learn what protocols the geoportal already supports for service validation, how to use the geoportal to validate and register data and services, and how to add configurations for validation to a geoportal instance. Or, just take the Discovery Cluster geoportal instance out for a spin!
Mentor: Christine White
Command line (wget, curl)
Yes, you can interact with an OpenSearch server or a Data Cast using basic command-line URL getters, like wget (available for all platforms) and curl.
Mentors: Hook Hua and Chris Lynnes
Browsers and News Readers
It's even possible to interact with both Data "casts" and OpenSearch servers using a simple browser. Also, News Readers, especially useful for Data casts!
Mentors: Ruth Duerr and ...
XSL Transforms
Learn how to generate simple interfaces to OpenSearch cast feeds. ESIP Discovery casts extend the Atom casts format and thus these transforms will expose additional information to the user interface.
Mentors: Hook Hua and ...
Perl Monks
Learn how to hack a quick client together. Particularly useful for doing scripted search/acquire for datasets following your own, possibly idiosyncratic needs.
