CrossRef modules for that support search #1200

Closed jvwong closed 1 year ago

jvwong commented 1 year ago

A works module exposes find that:

(a) guesses what the input query is (DOI, text term)
(b) retrieves it from CrossRef web service
(c) makes sure the top match is sane (e.g. substring of title, exact DOI)
(d) the right 'type' (restricted to preprints right now).

The map module tries to convert the CrossRef record into a consistent schema that we store - in this case, a 'PubMed' article.

None of the additions here are called by the server - will save for next PR.

Looks great.

Are Crossref-originated entries marked somehow (e.g. flag or enum) so that we know they came from Crossref rather than Pubmed?

Not right now - it's implicit that if the record has only a DOI it is from CrossRef. Having a PubMed ID doesn't necessarily tell you anything about where it came from, as these records may or may not possess a DOI.

Sounds like the options are open in future then. Great
