Comment: missing close } for linked resources

Table of Contents

 

These RESTful services use a JSON exchange format (ei-x) to allow external parties to create and update resources in an eagle-i repository. They are currently deployed in the development server:

...

  • error codes not properly handled
  • currently no ontology-level validation of externally-produced resource descriptions
  • currently does not handle links to referenced taxonomy terms  (as opposed to links to eagle-i resources). Example of record not handled due to the related technique field: http://montana.dev.eagle-i.net/i/0000012b-00be-dcdf-df3b-3fdc80000009
  • we currently do not enforce the association URI-foreign key (this will come)
  • DELETE is not yet implemented
  • This is not thoroughly tested

EIExchangeInstance field descriptions:

...

A map that contains the value of text properties, keyed on the URI of the ontology property used to capture them.

 

InstanceUpdateResponse field descriptions

...

the eagle-i URI of the resource that failed, and an error message

 

REST service description

Example GET CURL command, substitute your own credentials:

No Format

curl -v --get -u eagle-i-user:password -d uri=http://montana.dev.eagle-i.net/i/0000012f-989d-df6c-b822-788380000000 https://montana.dev.eagle-i.net/sweet/api/externalResource

Example POST CURL command, substitute your own credentials (assumes a valid json instance in the file json.txt):

No Format

curl -v -X POST -u eagle-i-user:password  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @json.txt  https://montana.dev.eagle-i.net/sweet/api/externalResource

Sample New instance with new linked instances. New instances must contain a foreign key and no eagle-i uri.
