https://w3id.org/nmdc/nmdc doesn't resolve to https://microbiomedata.github.io/nmdc-schema/

[dwinston]

...because there is no nmdc schema element. Should the w3id.org .htaccess file hard-code this particular redirect? should the redirect be handled by the runtime api?

thanks, @dwinston. I think @sujaypatil96 and I had been tracking something similar in another issue, but I haven't been able to find it yet.

Each of the YAML files in https://github.com/microbiomedata/nmdc-schema/tree/main/src/schema has it's own id

Specifically, the id for the root of the schema, nmdc.yaml is https://w3id.org/nmdc/nmdc, so that's what remains when the various imports are all merged together

And therefore, https://w3id.org/nmdc/nmdc is displayed as the id for the landing page in the auto-generated documentation. Furthermore, the id is displayed as a clickable (but broken) link.

Note: this landing page is technically information about the nmdc-schema SchemaDefinition

I'm not sure what to say about this one. It would be nice if your resolver were magically aware of all of the ids in the schema, not just the ones assigned to classes, slots, enumerations, etc. On the other hand, there isn't much utility to this particular link: I believes it only appears on the auto-generated landing page, and presumably the target for the link would just be the auto-generated landing page! That's the behavior on the MIxS documentation landing page

@sujaypatil96 @cmungall what do you think of either removing the SchemaDefinition's id altogether, or just disabling the link?

The following w3id.org PR has been merged:

• Update .htaccess perma-id/w3id.org#3927

Current behavior of the w3id redirections:

• https://w3id.org/nmdc/prov.yaml --> https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microbiomedata/nmdc-schema/main/src/schema/prov.yaml
• https://w3id.org/nmdc/prov --> https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microbiomedata/nmdc-schema/main/src/schema/prov.yaml
• https://w3id.org/nmdc/nmdc.yaml --> https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microbiomedata/nmdc-schema/main/src/schema/nmdc.yaml
• https://w3id.org/nmdc/nmdc --> https://microbiomedata.github.io/nmdc-schema/
  • An exception because it is the only redirection that takes us to a documentation page instead of a YAML file
