Extending Schema.org

Bioschemas intends to have a hosted extension of Schema.org.

The purpose of this page is to document the process for developing that extension.

Resources

• Blog with overview of process
• gcloud documentation
  • gcloud command line tools
• Deployment on gcloud
  • For write access request permission from Alasdair or Leyla
  • bio extension available at http://bio.sdo-bioschemas-227516.appspot.com/

Setting up your development environment

• Install gcloud: note that we are currently working with python 2.7
• Checkout schemaorg repository: note do not work on master as this repository is synchronised with the main schema.org repository
• Change to your newly checked out repository

Regularly used gcloud commands

• Deploy code to app engine
  gcloud app deploy app.yaml --project sdo-bioschemas-227516
• View deployment
  gcloud app browse --project=sdo-bioschemas-227516
• Follow logs
  gcloud app logs tail -s default

Note that gcloud only permits 15 versions of the app to be deployed. Old versions should be regularly removed. This can be done through the online dashboard.
