The SciCat backend v4 is a rewrite of the original backend, built on top of the NestJS framework.
The backend-next service is mainly configured via environment variables. For an extensive list of available options see here.
There are a few functional accounts available for handling data:
| Username | Password | Usage |
|---|---|---|
| admin | 2jf70TPNZsS | Admin |
| ingestor | aman | Ingest datasets |
| archiveManager | aman | Manage archiving of datasets |
| proposalIngestor | aman | Ingest proposals |
In the default configuration folder config, the backend is set to use the mongo container and the elastic search container.
Here below we show the internal dependencies of the service, which are not already covered here (if B depends on A, then we visualize as A --> B). The same subdomain to service convention applies.
