ARGOS - Contradictory/complementary categorisations management

Contact: aurelien.benel@utt.fr

Home page: https://github.com/Hypertopic/Argos

Notice

Argos is a server software. There is no need to install it on your own computer to use it. The usual way is to be "hosted" by one's own institution (ask your system administrator). If your use cases meet our research interests, we can also host your data on our community server.

Installation requirements

• Docker Engine

Installation procedure

docker-compose up -d prod

Two services are now available:

• Argos API endpoint at http://localhost/ (check the Hypertopic protocol specification for usable HTTP resources and methods),
• CouchDB administration interface at http://localhost:5984/_utils/ (that should be kept accessible only to system administrators).

Authentication settings

for users managed by an LDAP server

The ldap entry of the conf/aaaforrest.yml should be:

• updated to match your organization settings,
• or wiped out if you do not use it.

for users managed by CouchDB

1. Create the _users database in CouchDB administration interface and then a user (change values as needed):

   {
     "_id": "org.couchdb.user:alice",
     "type": "user",
     "name": "alice",
     "password": "wonderland",
     "roles": []
   }

2. Create an administrator in CouchDB administration interface
