Providing a custom interaction_types_mapping.csv

[zedomel]

Hi @jhpoelen

The idea is to have how to execute elton passing the interaction_types_mapping.csv file location.
It can be included in the globi.json, for example:

awk -F '\t' -v version_anchor="${VERSION_ANCHOR}" '{ print "{ \"namespace\": \"" $1 "\", \"citation\": \"<" $1 "> <http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#wasDerivedFrom> <" version_anchor "> .\", \"format\": \"dwca\", \"url\": \"https://linker.bio/" $1 "\", \"interaction_types_mapping_location\": \"/home/john/interaction_types_mapping.csv\" }" }' 

Or as elton parameter:
elton stream --interaction-types-mapping=/home/john/interaction_types_mapping.csv

I like the first option, since the usage of a custom interaction types mapping can be preserved in the metadata (globi.json).

What do you think?

best.
josé.

Thanks for your suggestion! Perhaps we can do both support for globi.json as well as the command-line option, so that you can run elton with or without globi.json .

Also, I'd be curious to hear your ideas on how to combine the Preston idea of recording associations with locations (e.g., /home/john/interaction_types_mapping.csv) and their content signatures (e.g., hash://sha256/abc...).
