Update `guid`s for changes to the bie name index #97

Closed daxkellie closed 1 year ago

daxkellie commented 2 years ago

Changes to the bie name index (https://bie-ws.ala.org.au/ws) will affect how GUIDs are built. URIs (like "Mammalia") will change from using URNs (e.g., urn:lsid:biodiversity.org.au) to URLs (e.g., https://id.biodiversity.org.au).

For example, using select_taxa() to search for "Mammalia" will be returned from https://bie-ws.ala.org.au/ws/taxon/https://biodiversity.org.au/afd/taxa/e9e7db31-04df-41fb-bd8d-e0b0f3c332d6, rather than https://bie-ws.ala.org.au/ws/species/urn:lsid:biodiversity.org.au:afd.taxon:e9e7db31-04df-41fb-bd8d-e0b0f3c332d6

galah will need to change how it builds these queries for when the new name index is released

Update: The {galah} package required no additional updates to accommodate for an update to ALA's names index, which was updated on 21/07/2022,
