The URI Resolver is an HTTP URI resolver implemented as an HTTP servlet which gives access trough HTTP to different protocols URIs.

SMP Resolver

The first version of the component is able to give HTTP resolution to SMP protocol URIs [1].

Once deployed in a servlet container as Tomcat, the servlet can be used to resolve SMP URIs as follows:

URL url = new URL("http://<hostname>:<port>/uri-resolver/smp?smp-uri=smp://.....);


The HTTP URI can be also used to retrieve files using wget or trough a Web Browser.. just click on the link :

Apart from the smp-uri mandatory parameter, two optional paramters can be used:

  • fileName : to specify the output file name ( default: fromStorageManager)
  • contentType : to specify the output file content-type ( default: unknown/unknown)

  <type>war</type>

Runtime Resource

The address and the configuration information of the servlet are registered on the gCube Information System as Runtime Resource. This in an example of the Runtime Resource to configure:

Query

The following code snippet can be used to retrieve from the gCube Information System the info to configure the resolver

 
        ScopeProvider.instance.set(<scope>);
 
	XQuery query = queryFor(ServiceEndpoint.class);
 
	query.addCondition("$resource/Profile/Name/text() eq 'HTTP-URI-Resolver'").setResult("$resource/Profile/AccessPoint");
 
	DiscoveryClient<AccessPoint> client = clientFor(AccessPoint.class);
 
	List<AccessPoint> endpoints = client.submit(query);
 
	if (endpoints.size() == 0)
		throw new Exception("No Resolver available");
 
	//Base Address
        System.out.println(endpoints.get(0).address());
        //Query URL parameter
	System.out.println(endpoints.get(0).propertyMap().get("SMP_URI_parameter").value());


GIS Resolver

The first version of the component is able to give HTTP resolution (as redirect to Gis Viewer Application) to display and navigate on map the gis layers stored in iMarine Geonetowrk #iMarine_GeoNetwork

The Gis Resolver can be used to resolve Gis Layer using a Web Browser link as follows:

http://dev.d4science.org/uri-resolver/gis?gis-UUID=<UUID>&scope=<SCOPE>

The link must include two mandatory parameters:

  • gis-UUID : to specify the Metadata Universally Unique Identifier (UUID - used in iMarine Geonetwork). The UUID identifies the gis layer which you want to show in Gis Viewer Application
  • scope : to specify the "scope" for discovering the iMarine Geonetowrk service (e.g. scope=/gcube/devsec/devVRE)

The artifact is available on Nexus with the following coordinates:
