MaRDMO Plugin

This repository contains the MaRDMO Plugin for the Research Datamanagement Organizer (RDMO) developed within the Mathematical Research Data Initiative (MaRDI). The plugin allows a standardized documentation of interdisciplinary workflows, where the connection to experiments or computational approaches, like simulations, is possible and desired. Documented workflows can be stored locally (depreciated) or shared with other scientists on the MaRDI Portal. In the latter case a Wiki Page is created for the documented workflow and integral aspects of the workflow are integrated into the MaRDI Knowledge Graph. Integration into the MaRDI Knowledge Graph allows specific workflow queries which are also possible through the MaRDMO Plugin.

To document the underlying mathematical model(s) MaRDMO relies on the MathModDB ontology developed within Task Area 4 of MaRDI. Existing model documentations are retrieved from the MathModDB Knowledge Graph. Export into the MathModDB KG is possible upon authentification. If credentials are missing, it is possible to export the documented model into a standardized model documentation template and share it with the MaRDI TA4 Team for integration.

MaRDMO Plugin Installation

To use the MaRDMO Plugin at least RDMO v2.0.0 is required. Follow the installation / update instructions of RDMO if required.

Go to the rdmo-app directory of your RDMO installation. In the virtual environment of the RDMO installation install the MaRDMO Plugin:

pip install MaRDMO

To connect the MaRDMO Plugin with the RDMO installation add the following lines to config/settings/local.py (if not already present):

Thereby, the MaRDMO Plugin is installed and a "MaRDI Button" button is added in the project view.

MaRDI Portal, MathAlgoDB, and MathModDB Connection

Add the following lines to config/settings/local.py to connect MaRDMO with the individual databases.

MARDMO_PROVIDER = {
    'oauth2_client_id': '',
    'oauth2_client_secret': '',
    'mathmoddb_id': '',
    'mathmoddb_secret': '',
    'mathalgodb_id': '',
    'mathalgodb_secret': ''
    }

Contact the MaRDI consortium for the individual credentials.

MaRDMO-Questionnaire

The MaRDMO Plugin requires the MaRDMO-Questionnaire, download its latest release .

Integrate the MaRDMO Questionnaire into your RDMO instance through the user interface of your RDMO instance (Management -> Import -> attributes.xml/optionsets.xml/conditions.xml/catalogs.xml) or via

python manage.py import /path/to/MaRDMO-Questionnaire/catalog/attributes.xml
python manage.py import /path/to/MaRDMO-Questionnaire/catalog/optionsets.xml
python manage.py import /path/to/MaRDMO-Questionnaire/catalog/conditions.xml
python manage.py import /path/to/MaRDMO-Questionnaire/catalog/mardmo-search-catalog.xml
python manage.py import /path/to/MaRDMO-Questionnaire/catalog/mardmo-model-catalog.xml
python manage.py import /path/to/MaRDMO-Questionnaire/catalog/mardmo-interdisciplinary-workflow-catalog.xml
python manage.py import /path/to/MaRDMO-Questionnaire/catalog/mardmo-algorithm-catalog.xml

Usage of MaRDMO Plugin

Once the MaRDMO Plugin is set up, the Questionnaires can be used to document and query interdisciplinary workflows, mathematical models, and algorithms. Therefore, select "Create New Project" in RDMO, choose a proper project name (for interdisciplinary workflow the project name will the workflow name), assign one of the the MaRDMO Catalogs and select "Create Project". The project is created. On the right hand side in the "Export" category the "MaRDMO Button" button is located to process the completed Questionnaires. Choose "Answer Questions" to start the interview.
