Bug #4333
closedKeplerLSID AuthNamespace web service
0%
Description
Currently Kepler is pinging my desktop machine to get a unique authority and namespace. We should create a more robust service and put it on a maintained server before the 2.0 release.
This is the current service that a new installation of Kepler connects to:
http://gamma.msi.ucsb.edu/OpenAuth/
This is the code that is currently running (which does not handle collisions well). It has a description of the input and output parameters of the service:
http://code.kepler-project.org/code/kepler-docs/trunk/teams-and-wg/2-infr-teams/framework/AuthNamespace_WebService_Spec/
This is the KeplerLSID spec:

This should be installed and maintained as part of the kepler repository. This functionality should be added to that system and maintained there.

So
kepler-project.org
is the plone site, and metacat is on
library.kepler-project.org
If we drop the jsp page into the library.kepler-project.org metacat server then LSIDs for kepler will look like this:
urn:lsid:library.kepler-project.org/ns/:10:2:1
Another option is to port the JSP page to python and drop it into the plone server...

Added the namespace number generator jsp to the kepler skin in metacat at:
/style/skins/kepler/keplerAuthNamespace.jsp
This is now active on the production kepler website.

I've added
https://kepler-project.org/ns/
and
http://library.kepler-project.org/ns/
to the Kepler configuration in trunk
unfortunately neither of them work yet,
kepler-project.org/ns/ is returning just the integer and not the
formatted string "namespace=<integer>"
so it fails.
And the library.kepler-project.org/ns/ is returning an error about incorrect username, I have a feeling this is a problem with the redirect and how the client code is working...
it is still using gamma.msi.ucsb.edu as the third attempt
to test
close Kepler
clean the cache
delete KeplerData\modules\core\AuthorizedNamespace
start Kepler

Alright https://kepler-project.org/ns/
now works.
http://library.kepler-project.org/ns/
is still returning an error about incorrect username when Kepler pings it programmatically... :(
it's as if the username and password are not making it through the redirect to the actual script at
http://library.kepler-project.org/kepler/style/skins/kepler/keplerAuthNameSpace.jsp
But we have one service running on a production server which was the goal so closing this bug.

Added the code used on the Plone site to the Kepler policy product:
