Support datasets from the BioImage archive

[IgnacioHeredia]

Hi @J535D165 ,

I'm trying to download a dataset from the Bioimage archive, for example this one. But it raises a non-supported error:

❯ datahugger 10.6019/S-BIAD1232 test-bioimage                                           
Error: Data protocol for 10.6019/S-BIAD1232 not found.

Do you think this is a data repository that needs to be supported?
Please request support in the issue tracker:

	https://github.com/J535D165/datahugger/issues/new/choose

However, it looks that the Bioimage Archive is actually integrated in the Dataverse, which is in turn supported by Datahugger.
So my questions really is: how can I download a dataset from a Dataverse-supported repository?

Thanks. :)

Hi @IgnacioHeredia,
I think that this repository is not part of the Dataverse installations:
https://dataverse.org/installations

Hi @micafer ,

I'm not familiar with how Dataverse works. Reading the Datahugger docs I see:

See https://dataverse.org/institutions and DataVerse on Re3data.org for an overview of DataVerse repositories.

So as the repository exists en re3data I assumed it could be used as is with Datahugger. Is this not the case?

It looks like they aren't using dataverse.

I can see a custom REST API for BioImage (see JSON button). I, or anyone else, can explore that. Rest of it looks straightforward to support.

Hi @J535D165 ,
it would be great if the Bioimage archive could be supported! 🚀
BTW thanks for the tool. :)

Hi all,

Just a heads up, the BIA API won't be in production until mid august. So we'll have to revive this issue then

Apologies,

Craig

Hi @ctr26 , any updates on the status of the BIA API?
