Stanza API docs review #38

Open laurensorensen opened 1 month ago

laurensorensen commented 1 month ago

Hi, similar to the Amara API docs question in #37 , we need to review how easy / ok an API will work to retrieve edited caption files from the Stanza api documentation. I have it installed locally and unfortunately the API docs are only available within the software (e.g. http://localhost:7000/swagger/index.html). @peetucket offered to do a huddle to review tomorrow 10/24 - if anyone else is available before that I've got time this afternoon too. See slack discussion here for further context: https://stanfordlib.slack.com/archives/C06EVDJV45N/p1729721694280379

the documentation was not great, but we think this might be usable? @laurensorensen has some additional info she can add here, from corresponding with Stanza.

Here is the back-and-forth I had with Stanza. It could be they misinterpreted what I was saying again, but I can't tell. Bottom is my first message asking them about getting the contents/text of a VTT file versus the actual VTT file. I can follow up if needed. CC: @peetucket @dnoneill

Lauren,

Yes, this API will download the result of an export:

GET /api/projects/{operationId}/result

Where {operationId} is the Guid of the export operation, which you can get from the export API.

Thanks, I think I didn't properly word my question. We understand that we can export VTT files using the API. However, we are wondering if there is a way to get the contents of a caption file using the API -- from what we can see, the tool only allows exporting the VTT file to a location (server or local drive).

Thanks,

Lauren

Lauren,

There is an API to export a VTT file from a project, it will write the file to either a local or network drive.

dnoneill commented 3 weeks ago

I would want to know if there is a way to get the results without having to export. Otherwise we still have to export and store the file somewhere.

laurensorensen commented 3 weeks ago

Ok thanks. If direct still wants us to investigate Stanza, I'll see if I can set up a time to meet with them.

open question remains about captions deliverables, @laurensorensen will discuss w/ hannah tomorrow
