Updates¶

Kacper:
- Workspace endpoint – finishing touches (both GET /workspace and workspaceId in Tale)
- Implemented POST /tale/{:id}/copy
Ian:
Adam:
Tommy:
- GET /manifest + unit tests
- Upload zipped Tale to Home
  - Call import with the zipfile id
- Currently fixing refactor (from gwvolman to girder_wt) road kill
- Pondered licenses
- Importing Status:
  - Was able to re-register datasets that were in the Tale
  - Haven’t implemented moving files from the zip to /home/etc
  - Testing & making bug fixes in girder_wt
- KK:
  - Registration should look for manifest.json
  - TT:
    - Should look for manifest when importing from dataset
    - When importing from zip, the import method already knows the manifest exists, so call some sub-process that bypasses the manifest check
- Issue of licenses came up
  - Need to discuss
  - Example of https://github.com/benmarwick/1989-excavation-report-Madjedbebe
