Software-specific metadata

[lnielsen]

Codemeta for interoperability

The Codemeta standard based on Schema.org is supported both SWH, Zenodo and InvenioRDM as a common metadata exchange format. Further, InvenioRDM registers DOI via DataCite and thus provided DataCite metadata format as an exchange format for repositories and aggregators

SWH ID

InvenioRDM must also be able to store a Software Heritage Identifier (SWH ID). The SWH ID will be a fully system managed property that users will not be able to edit. The identifier will be managed using InvenioRDM's internal persistent identifier management system which further enforces that we cannot store duplicate SWH ID's.
