cannot download DSLD and NHP files #1

Open Bachery opened 3 years ago

Bachery commented 3 years ago

I follow the instructions but fail to download the DSLD and NHP files, since neither of the links given work. The DSLD one jumps to a homepage and the NHP jumps to an error page. Without these files I get errors when running make version step in the instruction. Could you give another source of the files? thank you!

@Bachery, sorry for the late reply, I'm just now seeing that this issue was opened. If you still need to find the files, I'm providing links below that work for me.

DSLD:
https://dsld.od.nih.gov/api-guide

There will be a link on this page to download the database as a JSON file

NHP:
https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/drugs-health-products/natural-non-prescription/applications-submissions/product-licensing/licensed-natural-health-product-database-data-extract.html

This link takes me to a page that hasn't been updated since 2017, but does contain a link to download the database from that time. It looks like the NHP re-named themselves to the NNHPD and with that started a new website with resources. While I can't find a single download that contains everything, the following link does contain links to monographs for each DS ingredient and product in their database that could be collected with some scraping. http://webprod.hc-sc.gc.ca/nhpid-bdipsn/monosReq.do?lang=eng&monotype=single
