RESTful service #85

Closed mmaelicke closed 1 year ago

mmaelicke commented 4 years ago

One day, metacatalog needs a fourth top-level module: a REST server. Besides the fact that REST is the most appropriate tech to exchange information and expose metacatalog publicly, this is also needed to implement a very simple UUID query service. One endpoint needs to be able to look up UUIDs in Entry and EntryGroups. The URI of that endpoint, together with a description is needed to expose a codeList for UUID references e.g. in ISO 19115 or DataCite. The Rest client will be added after the API is more or less stable.

This is only planned as a standalone extension
