repo organization #27

Closed ksonda closed 4 years ago

Repo getting cluttered.

I propose reorganizing so all namespaces in one subdirectory like so:

e.g.

This raises the question. What is the point of the "ref" directory. Is it exclusively for stuff in https://info.geonnex.us, or for any non-organizational features. If the latter, should nhdplusv2/comid and huc12 be in /ref ? Perhaps #25 will be relevant

👍 to moving things into namespaces.

I'd like to avoid being strict about the PID structure if we can. nhdplusv2 is a grey area it's not literally an organization but it needs its own name space that nuances the comid and huc12 (etc.) identifiers to that dataset -- thus I put it in its own namespace rather than ref.

I've been imagining ref be used for things that do not need a namespace -- so for instance ref will eventually have /ref/huc12 but that will contain non-dataset-specific huc12 (or all that ever existed) identifiers.

Yes -- I need to get #25 done to clarify some of this thinking.

I think we could also revisit the decision to put the pid backups and pygeoapi configuration in this repository to clean things up going forward. I've got the move to a namespaces directory pending in my next PR.
