FAIR Metrics (FAIRness) - URL is expected if License is populated #258

Closed jeffstazer closed 6 years ago

jeffstazer commented 6 years ago

If a license is specified FAIR metrics expects a URL specified. For Project Tycho, this is specified in the Identifier field: (Tycho are: {"identifier": "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/", "identifierSource": "URL"}).

path: content->'entry'->'licenses'->0 For those with License populated here are the contents and count:

contents and count {"name": ""} 7 {"name": "Apache License 2.0"} 3 {"name": "CC BY 3.0 US"} 5 {"name": "GNU General Public License"} 1 {"name": "https://www.tycho.pitt.edu/legal/license_agreement.html"} 2 {"name": "No License Specified."} 5

For the empty string and "No License Specified.", I suggest we remove license for these 12 entries.

To match the Tycho format, we need to specify an Identifier and IdentifierSource for the other 11. So, what should those be?

Below are what I believe we should set the identifiers to... identifierSource will be set to URL

Everything looks good, only thing I don't agree with is the Tycho license link in comment 2, just point to the cc by 40 (the first link mentioned in the issue).

License has been removed for those 12 records with empty strings.

The other 4 have been updated. the first 3 as indicated above and Tycho as John specified.
