Summary

ResearchSoftwareMetadata is a Julia package that provides functionality for to allow a crosswalk between Project.toml, codemeta.json, .zenodo.json and the package LICENSE file to allow a consistent way of providing metadata for research software which allows the Julia General Registry to pick up the same metadata as GitHub and Zenodo while following the Research Software MetaData guidelines.

Installation

The package is registered in the General registry so can be built and installed with add. For example:

``julia (@v1.10) pkg> add ResearchSoftwareMetadata Resolving package versions... Updating~/.julia/environments/v1.10/Project.toml [aea672f4] + ResearchSoftwareMetadata v0.1.2 Updating~/.julia/environments/v1.10/Manifest.toml`

(@v1.10) pkg> ```

Usage

First you need to add a small amount of additional metadata into your Project.toml file.

To capture the license you are using and propagate it throughout the metadata files and through your julia code, add an SPDX license identifier to the file:

toml license = "BSD-2-Clause"

To supplement the metadata on the authors of the package, add the ORCID for each author and the ROR for the organisation(s) they are affiliated with. You can add as many authors and as much or as little information as you like about each one by adding additional [[author_details]] blocks.

```toml [[author_details]] name = "Richard Reeve" orcid = "0000-0003-2589-8091"

[[author_details.affiliation]]
ror = "00vtgdb53"

```

Then, from the root of your package, you can just run a crosswalk:

```julia using Pkg

Create a new project with ResearchSoftwareMetadata in it

Pkg.activate(; temp = true) Pkg.add("ResearchSoftwareMetadata")

Carry out a crosswalk between the different metadata formats

using ResearchSoftwareMetadata ResearchSoftwareMetadata.crosswalk() ```

If you want to add in some additional metadata (the category of the software, or the keywords associated with it, or you want to increase the package version during the crosswalk, this is possible as follows:

```julia

Add in additional metadata

ResearchSoftwareMetadata.crosswalk(category = "metadata", keywords = ["julia", "metadata", "research software", "RSMD"])

Increase version number during crosswalk

ResearchSoftwareMetadata.increasepatch() # Bump patch version (e.g. 0.4.1 -> 0.4.2) ResearchSoftwareMetadata.increaseminor() # Bump minor version (e.g. 0.4.1 -> 0.5.0) ResearchSoftwareMetadata.increase_major() # Bump major version (e.g. 0.4.1 -> 1.0.0) ```

You might also consider reformatting all of your julia code to a consistent format. A .JuliaJormatter.toml file in the package root defines what the formatting standard should be.

julia Pkg.add("JuliaFormatter") Pkg.develop("MyPackage") using JuliaFormatter using MyPackage format(MyPackage)
