pubpatterns

Ruby

Use publisher URL patterns to generate full text links to scholarly articles.

These could be used in a variety of ways:

  • If you're interested in a particular publisher, or a journal within a publisher, navigate directly to it.
  • If start with a DOI, then match on DOI prefix to the publisher

Spec

spec.json

Example

example.json

Patterns

All .json files are in the src/ directory.

Example patterns

  • Instituto de Investigaciones Filologicas (<spec/iif.json>): can get full URL from Crossref metadata, but need to replace /view/ with /download/ - requires a HTTP request to Crossref API, then a regex sub
  • ... more to come

Test suite

Tests are in test/ - will be run on Travis-CI on each change in this repo.

Tests are meant to make sure that URLs actually work. Failures will quickly let us know we need to fix something.
