I was just looking over the documentation, is there a way to delete a user once they've signed up? As in, it was a test/temporary account to test something?
14:47 pdurbin
andrewSC: it's possible, especially if the user hasn't created anything
14:48 andrewSC
nice yeah this was just to conifrm the signup url changes I made
14:48 andrewSC
do i just need to a delete from within the db or is there an api endpoint or?
14:48 pdurbin
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:8080/api/admin/authenticatedUsers/myself
14:49 pdurbin
That example is from http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.8.4/installation/shibboleth.html#exchange-metadata-with-your-identity-provider
14:49 pdurbin
... because I recommend creating a test account using the TestShib service before bothering you identity people.

welcome, zer0G

Here are the notes from today's community call: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/dataverse-community/xkZ5y5gW7a8/AaqqBJK7AQAJ

I joined this channel just stumbling around IRC channels... this turned out to be a really interesting find.
18:14 pdurbin
zer0G: cool, what are some of your other favorite IRC channels?
18:17 zer0G
Well I was looking for reddit's #datahoarders community. This is tangentially related though...
18:19 zer0G
Is the dataverse project only the software backend? Or is part of the project to accumulate publically accessible data sets
18:20 pdurbin
I've never heard of it, but I like how it starts. "We are digital librarians" at https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/
18:20 zer0G
does the project interface with alternative repositories like sci-hub ?
18:22 pdurbin
Well, the software is called Dataverse. There are 30 installations of it around the world and each installation has its own way of doing things. Most are oriented toward hosting data generated by the researchers at their institution.
18:23 pdurbin
That said, I feel like Harvard Dataverse (one of the 30) will sometimes do outreach to people and offer to host their datasets. I'm not sure though. I'm just a developer. :)
18:24 pdurbin
In terms of interfacing with other projects, Dataverse supports the OAI-PMH protocol for "harvesting" metadata from other repositories.
18:24 pdurbin
And there are other APIs for getting data in and out.
18:25 zer0G
So the target (user) audience is Academic researchers, and the software is generally used by academic institutions (who can host giant datasets)
18:26 pdurbin
yep
18:26 zer0G
What's the size of these data repositories? How big is harvards?
18:28 zer0G
Do you guys have a bug bounty program?
18:28 pdurbin
https://dataverse.harvard.edu says the number of files is 223,547. That's across 23,000 or so datasets.
18:28 pdurbin
No but we have lots of bugs if you want to help. :)
