- This repo contains a node express REST API that wrangles and consolidates various metadata from Socrata's opendata platform.
- The API methods return easy-to-use json metadata objects for a given dataset.
- It's overall goal is to simplify the process of obtaining metadata data for upstream client facing apps.
- Uses Swagger to self document. For all API methods, click here.
- point the app to your metadatasets on your open data portal by filling out the config file, fieldConfig.yaml.
- npm install
- npm start
- we used nginx and pm2 to run, serve and manage the API processes
- A cheat sheet on how to adminster the api can be found here
