EGA-archive/beacon-v2

Unified repository for the GA4GH Beacon v2 API standard

Unified repository for Beacon v2 Code & Documentation

Description

This repository is a unified repository representing the different parts of the Beacon API:

• framework
• models
• Beacon v2 Documentation
  • authoritive source already in this repository /docs
  • rendered version through here (alternative address is docs.genomebeacons.org)

As with other schema projects, here we separate between the schema source files (in src; JSON-Schema written in YAML) and the generated versions for referencing. The current setup allows already the direct referencing of the generated JSON schemas. Examples:

• ontologyTerm:
  • YAML (source):
    • edit: https://github.com/ga4gh-beacon/beacon-v2/blob/main/framework/src/common/ontologyTerm.yaml
    • raw: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ga4gh-beacon/beacon-v2/main/framework/src/common/ontologyTerm.yaml
  • JSON: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ga4gh-beacon/beacon-v2/main/framework/json/common/ontologyTerm.json
• biosamples/defaultSchema
  • YAML (source):
    • edit: https://github.com/ga4gh-beacon/beacon-v2/blob/main/models/src/beacon-v2-default-model/biosamples/defaultSchema.yaml
    • raw: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ga4gh-beacon/beacon-v2/main/models/src/beacon-v2-default-model/biosamples/defaultSchema.yaml
  • JSON: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ga4gh-beacon/beacon-v2/main/models/json/beacon-v2-default-model/biosamples/defaultSchema.yaml
• beaconRequestBody:
  • YAML (source): https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ga4gh-beacon/beacon-v2/main/framework/src/requests/beaconRequestBody.yaml
  • JSON: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ga4gh-beacon/beacon-v2/main/framework/json/requests/beaconRequestBody.json

There is a set of tools in /bin to facilitate the conversion. ATM, after editing ...yaml schema files somewhere in the /src tree, a (local) run of bin/yamlerRunner.sh - which re-generates the ....json files in the /json tree) has to be performed before pushing changes.
