==Data loader==
 
A data loader application to refresh the data in the Phenoscape database on a daily basis is under development. The application is being developed as a Perl module which:
 
# Downloads curated NeXML files from the Phenoscape SVN repositories
 
# Drops and recreates the database
 
# Loads the requisite ontologies into the database
 
# Loads the data from the curated NeXML files into the database, and
 
# Invokes the OBD reasoner to elicit implicit information from the data and adds them to the database
 
  
==Web services==
 
Each service may support multiple media types.  The desired media type can be specified by appending <code>?media=json</code> or similar to the request URL.  URI specifications are defined (loosely) using [http://bitworking.org/projects/URI-Templates/draft-gregorio-uritemplate-00.html URI Templates].
 
===Term info===
 
'''URI'''
 
  
<BASE URI>/term/{term_id}
+
[[Category:Informatics]]
 
 
'''Returns'''
 
 
 
JSON:
 
<javascript>
 
{
 
    "id" : "TAO:0001700",
 
    "name" : "caudal-fin stay",
 
    "definition" : "Bone that is located anterior to the caudal procurrent rays. Caudal fin stays are unpaired bone."
 
    "parents" :
 
    [
 
        {
 
            "relation" : "OBO_REL:is_a",
 
            "id" : "TAO:0001514",

If there is no term with the given ID, the service should return "404 Not Found".
 
 
 
====Handling of anonymous post-compositions====
 
 
 
===Autocomplete===
 
'''URI'''
 
 
 
<BASE URI>/term/search/{text}?name=[true|false]&syn=[true|false]&def=[true|false]&ontology=[ont1,ont2,...]
 
 
 
All URI parameters are optional.  Default values are name=true, syn=false, def=false.  The "ontology" parameter should be a comma-separated list of ontology prefixes to search within.  If not given, the default is to search all terms.
 
 
 
'''Returns'''
 
 
 
JSON:
 
<javascript>
 
[
 
    {  // overall format
 
        "id" : "TAO:0001514",
 
        "name" : "bone",
 
        "match_type" : "name" | "syn" | "def",
 
        "match_text" : "this is the term name, synonym name, or definition that matched"
 
    },
 
    {  // a name example
 
        "id" : "TAO:0001514",
 
        "name" : "bone",
 
        "match_type" : "name",
 
        "match_text" : "bone"
 
    },

        "name" : "ceratobranchial bone",
 
        "match_type" : "def",
 
        "match_text" : "Ceratobranchials are bilaterally paired cartilage bones that form part of the ventral branchial arches. They articulate medially with the hypobranchials and laterally and dorsally with the epibranchials.  Ceratobranchials 1-5 ossify in the ceratobranchial cartilages."

If there are no terms matching the given input, a document should still be returned, containing an empty results list.
