Interaction with the SRA is broken #21

Open ewels opened 4 years ago

ewels commented 4 years ago

The SRA changed how their API works, breaking both sra-explorer and presumably also Labrador (x-ref https://github.com/ewels/sra-explorer/issues/24#issuecomment-692117704).

Don't know what the fix is yet, but presumably at least some code will need refactoring to use the new API endpoints to get the integrated search functionality back up and running again.

As mentioned here, I consider Labrador to be a legacy project now so don't expect to apply this fix myself, unless it's very quick. As such, help and contributions are welcome.

Note that the fix was pretty trivial in the end, so should be simple enough to implement here too. See https://github.com/ewels/sra-explorer/pull/27

The main issue now is finding the time to install and set up for proper testing & confirmation.
