rdmo-plugins-ror

This plugin implements dynamic option set, that queries the expanded-search endpoint of the ROR API.

Setup

Install the plugin in your RDMO virtual environment using pip (directly from GitHub):

pip install git+https://github.com/rdmorganiser/rdmo-plugins-ror

Add the rdmo_ror app to INSTALLED_APPS and the plugin to OPTIONSET_PROVIDERS in config/settings/local.py:

INSTALLED_APPS += ['rdmo_ror']

...

OPTIONSET_PROVIDERS += [
    ('ror', _('ROR Provider'), 'rdmo_ror.providers.RorProvider')
]

The option set provider should now be selectable for option sets in your RDMO installation. For a minimal example catalog, see the files in xml.

If a selection of a ROR ID should update other fields, you can add a ROR_PROVIDER_MAP in your settings, e.g.:

ROR_PROVIDER_MAP = [
    {
        'ror': 'https://rdmorganiser.github.io/terms/domain/project/partner/ror',
        'alias': 'https://rdmorganiser.github.io/terms/domain/project/partner/id',
        'acronym': 'https://rdmorganiser.github.io/terms/domain/project/partner/id',
        'name': 'https://rdmorganiser.github.io/terms/domain/project/partner/name',
    }
]

In this case, a change to the identifier of a partner (https://rdmorganiser.github.io/terms/domain/project/partner/ror) will update their name (https://rdmorganiser.github.io/terms/domain/project/partner/name) automatically. ROR_PROVIDER_MAP is a list of mappings, since multiple ROR ID could be used and should update different other values.

While not required, you can add a custom User-Agent to your requests so that the provider can perform statistical analyses and, if you add an email address, might contact you. This can be done by adding the following to your settings.

ROR_PROVIDER_HEADERS = {
    'User-Agent': 'rdmo.example.com/1.0 ([email protected]) rdmo-plugins-ror/1.0'
}
