12:44	pdurbin	poikilotherm: how's your drawing coming along? :)
12:45	pdurbin	juancorr: thanks for replying at https://groups.google.com/d/msg/dataverse-community/lkBfsz11dX4/bCvNwEkbCwAJ !
12:46	pdurbin	stefankasberger: are you still going to be shelling out to `curl` in the next version of pyDataverse?
12:47	pdurbin	pmauduit: I've been clicking "translate" on tweets like this about Dataverse: https://twitter.com/pmauduit/status/1149756031196467200 :)
12:47	stefankasberger	yes
12:48	pdurbin	stefankasberger: ok, I had to use some crazy "requests" syntax here: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-sample-data/blob/c91863d4d924f4997334f7d8f3af6cdb3b46f5a1/create_sample_data.py#L85
12:49	pdurbin	I thought maybe I could try to figure out how to remove the calls to curl in pyDataverse, if you want.
12:49	stefankasberger	that would be fantastic.
12:49	pdurbin	cool, because the "resp" object isn't consistent
12:49	pdurbin	it's different when pyDataverse shells out to curl
12:50	stefankasberger	mhm, thats true.
12:50	pdurbin	so it would be nice to make them consistent
12:51	pdurbin	I assume curl would be removed as part of a fix for https://github.com/AUSSDA/pyDataverse/issues/32
12:53	pmauduit	pdurbin: ;)
12:53	pmauduit	I was just asking if data.gouv.fr (our national opendata portal) was able to harvest a dataverse, as it has the capability to do so on CKAN endpoints
12:57	stefankasberger	dont know enough about requests to say that. maybe you can just create an issue as a feature request for the removal of the curl dependency, and then fix it?
12:57	pdurbin	pmauduit: can that portal speak OAI-PMH? Is that how it harvests from CKAN? Datavese supports this standard.
12:57	pdurbin	stefankasberger: I can try. Maybe not today. :)
13:00	pmauduit	no, I think they are using the CKAN api to gather data from ckan, they might also have some CSW harvesting for geographical metadatas stored in geocatalogues
13:00	pdurbin	oh
13:00	pmauduit	not sure though
13:01	pmauduit	I know that data.gouv.fr was previously powered by ckan, but the "state startup" behind it rewrote a tool from scratch as far as I know
13:02	pdurbin	interesting
13:04	pmauduit	that's the software used now: https://github.com/opendatateam/udata
13:05	pdurbin	cool that it's open source
13:08	pdurbin	they seem to have a concept of harvesting backends: https://github.com/opendatateam/udata/tree/v1.6.13/udata/harvest/backends
13:21	pmauduit	yup
13:30	poikilotherm	Oi pdurbin I just found https://www.testcontainers.org/
13:30	poikilotherm	(See also https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-java)
13:31	poikilotherm	Stumbled over it in an article
14:12		pdurbin_m joined #dataverse
14:12	pdurbin_m	poikilotherm: neat!
14:19	pdurbin_m	poikilotherm: did you finish your drawing? :)
14:27	poikilotherm	pdurbin_m: I didn't do any drawing :-D
14:27	poikilotherm	I pulled some strings to resolve https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-kubernetes/pull/80
14:54	pdurbin	no more volume-mount-hack? :)

19:20	pdurbin	The phoenix server caught another regression before we shipped the next version: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/6027
19:20	pdurbin	donsizemore: ^^
