14:30 rliebz pdurbin: Hey, do you have a timeline of what we should be expecting with API v4?
14:33 pdurbin rliebz: hi! you'd like to know what's working now vs. what's coming?
14:37 rliebz As well as when it should be coming, yeah.
14:42 pdurbin rliebz: you can start playing around the the Dataverse 4.0 "native" API right now at http://dataverse-demo.iq.harvard.edu . We'd love feedback! It's still very much in development but check out docs at https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/tree/master/scripts/api
14:56 pdurbin rliebz: have you seen my new "Dataverse 4.0 Data Deposit API v1 Backward Compatibility and Migration Guide for Collaborators"? It's here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11DpdKyp1tagmaJAAzRqQBEZEZ69WOOOYsoqhz8UsfNM/edit?usp=sharing
18:52 pdurbin jwhitney: have I mentioned we have minor versions for datasets in Dataverse 4.0? i.e. 1.1, 2.1 etc.
18:52 pdurbin in DVN 3.x study versions are integers: 1, 2, 3, 4
18:53 jwhitney nope. What distinguishes a minor version from a major version?
18:53 pdurbin business rules, I guess
18:53 pdurbin if you add a file, we require a major version bump
18:53 pdurbin if you add a keyword to the dataset metadata, we let you increment only the minor version
18:53 pdurbin stuff like that
18:53 jwhitney righto, that's what I was looking for.
18:54 pdurbin so...
18:54 pdurbin the backend is telling me "Cannot release as minor version. Re-try as major release."
18:54 pdurbin so my thought was... for sword...
18:55 pdurbin to try to do a minor bump... and catch that exception (if need be) and retry as a major bump
18:56 pdurbin that is to say... don't let the sword clients decide this stuff ... don't make them worry about it :)
18:57 jwhitney that works for me.
19:00 mbjones joined #dvn
19:03 pdurbin me too BUT I just checked with Eleni and Merce and for now we're going to force a major bump via sword
19:04 pdurbin but I'll add it under "questions" on that google doc I linked earlier
19:13 pdurbin ok. added
20:49 pdurbin ok, forcing a major version bump but we're still open to debate
