## Install

### Docker
The easiest way to install and use JSKOS Server is with Docker and Docker Compose. Please refer to [our Docker documentation](https://github.com/gbv/jskos-server/blob/master/docker/README.md) for more information and instructions.

### Dependencies
You need Node.js 18 or Node.js 20 (recommended) to run JSKOS Server. You need to have access to a [MongoDB database](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/installation/) (minimun v4; v6 or v7 recommended).

### Clone and Install
```bash
git clone https://github.com/gbv/jskos-server.git
cd jskos-server
npm ci
```

### Configuration
You can customize the application settings via a configuration file. By default, this configuration file resides in `config/config.json`. However, it is possible to adjust this path via the `CONFIG_FILE` environment variable. Note that the given path has to be either absolute (i.e. starting with `/`) or relative to the `config/` folder (i.e. it defaults to `./config.json`). **Note** that the path to the configuration file needs to be valid and writable because a `namespace` key will be generated and written to the file if it doesn't currently exist. **Note** that if the file exists and contains invalid JSON data, JSKOS Server will refuse to start.

Currently, there are only two environment variables:
- `NODE_ENV` - either `development` (default) or `production`; currently, the only difference is that in `production`, HTTPS URIs are forced for entities created on POST requests.
- `CONFIG_FILE` - alternate path to a configuration file, relative to the `config/` folder; defaults to `./config.json`.

You can either provide the environment variables during the command to start the server, or in a `.env` file in the root folder.

It is also possible to have more specific configuration based on the environment. These are set in `config/config.development.json` or `config/config.production.json`. Values from these files have precedent over the user configuration.

All missing keys will be defaulted from `config/config.default.json`:

```json
{
"verbosity": "warn",
"baseUrl": null,
"env": "development",
"title": "JSKOS Server",
"version": null,
"closedWorldAssumption": true,

}
},

},
"moderatingIdentities": [],
"mismatchTagVocabulary": null
},
"anonymous": false,
"identityProviders": null,
"identities": null,
"ips": null
}
```

The provided configuration files (user config and environment config) will be validated with the provided [JSON Schema](https://json-schema.org) file under `config/config.schema.json` (public URI: https://gbv.github.io/jskos-server/status.schema.json). If validation fails, **JSON Server will refuse to start!** Please check whether your configuration is correct after each change. If there is something wrong, the console output will try to provide you with enough detail to fix the issue.

If you are [running jskos-server behind a reverse proxy](#running-behind-a-reverse-proxy), it is necessary to provide the `baseUrl` key as well as the `proxies` key in your configuration (example for our production API):**
See also:
```json
{
"baseUrl": "https://coli-conc.gbv.de/api/",
"proxies": ["123.456.789.101", "234.567.891.011"]
}
```

With the keys `schemes`, `concepts`, `mappings`, `concordances`, and `annotations`, you can configure whether endpoints related to the specific functionality should be available. A minimal configuration file to just server read-only vocabulary and concept information could look like this:

```json
{
"mappings": false,
"annotations": false,
"concordances": false
}
```

Available actions for `schemes`, `concepts`, `mappings`, and `annotations` are `read`, `create`, `update`, and `delete`. By default, all types can be read, while `mappings` and `annotations` can be created, updated, and deleted with authentication. Explanantions for additional options:

- **`auth`**: Boolean. Can be defined only on actions. Defines whether access will require [authentication via JWT](#authentication). By default `false` for `read`, and `true` for all other actions.

- **`crossUser`**: Boolean or list of URI strings. Can be defined only on `update` and `delete` actions when `auth` is `true`. Defines whether it is possible to edit an entity from a different user than the authenticated one (`true` = allowed for all users, list = allowed for specified user URIs). `false` by default.

- **`anonymous`**: Boolean. Can be defined on any level (deeper levels will take the values from higher levels if necessary\*). If set, no creator and contributor is saved. `false` by default.

- **`cardinality`**: String. Can be defined only on type `mappings`. Currently possible values: `1-to-n` (default), `1-to-1`. If `1-to-1` is configured, mappings with multiple concepts in `to` will be rejected.

- **`identities`**: List of URI strings. Can be defined on any level (deeper levels will take the values from higher levels if necessary\*). If set, an action with `auth` set to `true` can only be used by users with an URI given in the list. `null` by default (no restrictions).

- **`identityProviders`**: List of strings. Can be defined on any level (deeper levels will take the values from higher levels if necessary\*). If set, an action can only be used by users who have that identity associated with them. `null` by default (no restrictions).

- **`ips`**: List of strings. Strings can be IPv4 addresses (e.g. `127.0.0.1`, `123.234.123.234`) or CIDR ranges (e.g. `192.168.0.1/24`). Can be defined on any level (deeper levels will take the values from higher levels if necessary\*). If set, an action can only be used by clients with a whitelisted IP address. `null` by default (no restrictions). Note: An empty array will allow all IPs. Note: This property will be removed for security reasons when accessing [GET /status](#get-status) (meaning that clients will not be able to see the whitelisted IP addresses).

- **`fromSchemeWhitelist`/`toSchemeWhitelist`**: Can be defined only on type `mappings`. List of scheme objects that are allowed for `fromScheme`/`toScheme` respectively. `null` allows all schemes.

- **`mismatchTagVocabulary`**: Can be defined only on type `annotations`. A [JSKOS Concept Schemes] object with required property `uri`. When configured, concept URIs belonging to this vocabulary can be used to tag mapping mismatches in mapping annotations. See [below](#mapping-mismatch-tagging-for-negative-assessment-annotations) for detailed information about configuration and usage of this feature.

\* Only applies to actions `create`, `update`, and `delete`.

Note that any properties not mentioned here are not allowed!

#### Mapping Mismatch Tagging for Negative Assessment Annotations
To differentiate why a mapping was annotated with a negative assessment, a mismatch tagging vocabulary can now be configured under `annotations.mismatchTagVocabulary`. In theory, any vocabulary can be used, but [our instance](https://coli-conc.gbv.de/api/) will use a very small "mismatch" vocabulary available in https://github.com/gbv/jskos-data/tree/master/mismatch.

To set up mapping mismatch tagging, add the vocabulary to the configuration:

```json
{
"annotations": {
"mismatchTagVocabulary": {
"uri": "https://uri.gbv.de/terminology/mismatch/"
}
}
}
```

Currently, the vocabulary and its concepts are required to be imported in the same JSKOS Server instance:

```bash
# Import vocabulary metadata
npm run import schemes https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gbv/jskos-data/master/mismatch/mismatch-scheme.json
# Reset existing concepts (e.g. if old version has been imported previously)
npm run reset -- -t concepts -s "https://uri.gbv.de/terminology/mismatch/"
# Import vocabulary concepts
npm run import concepts -- --set-api https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gbv/jskos-data/master/mismatch/mismatch-concepts.json
```

After restarting JSKOS Server, mapping mismatch tagging is available for annotations. To add such a tag to an annotation, add a `body` field like this:

```json
{
"motivation": "assessing",
"bodyValue": "-1",
"body": [
{
"type": "SpecificResource",
"value": "https://uri.gbv.de/terminology/mismatch/scope",
"purpose": "tagging"
}
]
}
```

Currently, this is the only supported format, i.e. `body` as an array containing an object with `type` of "SpecificResource", `purpose` of "tagging", and the tag concept's URI as `value`.

To identify whether a JSKOS Server instance supports this kind of tagging, check the `/status` endpoint for the `config.annotations.mismatchTagVocabulary` key.

### Access control
The rights to `read`, `create`, `update` and `delete` entities via API can be controlled via several configuration settings described above ([data import](#data-import) is not limited by these restrictions):

* Restricted access via `ips` is always applied *in addition* to other settings

* Without [authentication](#authentication) (`auth` set to `false`) the server does not know about user accounts. In this case the `creator` and `contributor` fields of an object can be set without limitations (default) or they are ignored when `anonymous` is set to `true`.

* With authentication an action can be limited to accounts listed in `identities` (if set). Rights to `create`, `update`, and `delete` entities can further depend on two controls:

1. value of `creator` and `contributor` of a superordinated object. Concepts always belong to vocabularies via `inScheme` or `topConceptOf` and mappings can belong to concordances via `partOf`.
2. settings of `crossUser` together with value of `creator` and `contributor` of the object

The first control is only checked if it has a superordinated object with `contributor` and/or `creator`. This can only be the case for mappings and concepts. The connection to a superordinated object is checked on both the stored object and its modified value, so moving a mapping from one concordance to another is only allowed if access is granted for both. The authenticated user must be listed as `creator` or `contributor` of the superordinated object to pass this control.

The second control is only checked when the first control cannot be applied and only on authenticated actions `update` or `delete` where `anonymous` is set to `false` (this is the default). With `crossUser` set to `false`, the authenticated user must be listed as `creator` of the stored object. With `crossUser` set to `true` any authenticated user (optionally limited to those listed in `identities`) can `update` or `delete` the object.

For authenticated actions with `anonymous` being `false` creation of a new object will always set its initial `creator` to the autenticated user and `update` of an object will always add the user to `contributor` unless it is already included as `creator` or `contributor`. Further modification of `creator` and `contributor` (removal and addition of entries) is limited to vocabularies and concordance by authenticated users listed as `creator` of the object.

Here are some helpful example presets for configuration of "concordances, "mappings", or "annotations".

**Read-only access (does not make sense for annotations):**
```json
{
"read": {
"auth": false
}
}
```

**Anyone can create, but only logged-in users can update and delete (and only their own items):**
```json
{
"read": {
"auth": false
},
"create": {
"auth": false
},
"update": {
"auth": true,
"crossUser": false
},
"delete": {
"auth": true,
"crossUser": false
}
}
```

**Anyone can create, logged-in users can update (independent of creator), logged-in users can delete their own items:**
```json
{
"read": {
"auth": false
},
"create": {
"auth": false
},
"update": {
"auth": true,
"crossUser": true
},
"delete": {
"auth": true,
"crossUser": false
}
}
```

**Anyone can create, as well as update and delete, independent of creator:**
```json
{
"read": {
"auth": false
},
"create": {
"auth": false
},
"update": {
"auth": false,
"crossUser": true
},
"delete": {
"auth": false,
"crossUser": true
}
}
```

If write access for concept schemes and/or concepts is necessary, it is recommended that they are secured by only allowing certain users (via `identities`) or only allowing certain IP addresses (via `ips`):

**Only user with URI `https://coli-conc.gbv.de/login/users/c0c1914a-f9d6-4b92-a624-bf44118b6619` can write:**
```json
{
"read": {
"auth": false
},
"create": {
"auth": true,
"identities": ["https://coli-conc.gbv.de/login/users/c0c1914a-f9d6-4b92-a624-bf44118b6619"]
},
"update": {
"auth": true,
"identities": ["https://coli-conc.gbv.de/login/users/c0c1914a-f9d6-4b92-a624-bf44118b6619"]
},
"delete": {
"auth": true,
"identities": ["https://coli-conc.gbv.de/login/users/c0c1914a-f9d6-4b92-a624-bf44118b6619"]
}
}
```

**Only localhost can write:**

```json
{
"read": {
"auth": false
},
"create": {
"auth": false,
"ips": ["127.0.0.1"]
},
"update": {
"auth": false,
"ips": ["127.0.0.1"]
},
"delete": {
"auth": false,
"ips": ["127.0.0.1"]
}
}
```
Note that `auth` is set to `false` because it refers to authentication via JWT. The IP filter is separate from that. An even more secure way would be to use both JWT authentication with an `identities` filter as well as an IP filter.

**Only user with URI `https://coli-conc.gbv.de/login/users/c0c1914a-f9d6-4b92-a624-bf44118b6619` can create, but others can update/delete if they are creator/contributor of an entity:**
```json
{
"read": {
"auth": false
},
"create": {
"auth": true,
"identities": ["https://coli-conc.gbv.de/login/users/c0c1914a-f9d6-4b92-a624-bf44118b6619"]
},
"update": {
"auth": true
},
"delete": {
"auth": true
}
}
```
A configuration like this will be used to handle concordances in Cocoda. Only selected accounts will be able to create new concordances, but they will be able to add other accounts as creator/contributor so that those accounts will be able to assign mappings to the concordance and edit mappings that belong to the concordance.

### Authentication
It is possible to limit certain actions to authenticated users, indicated by the `auth` option (see [example configurations above](#access-control)). Authorization is performed via JWTs ([JSON Web Tokens](https://jwt.io/)). To configure authentication, you need to provide the JWT algorithm and the key/secret in the configuration file, like this:

```json
"auth": {
"algorithm": "RS256",
"key": "-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----\nMIIBIjANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOCAQ8AMIIBCgKCAQEA57ZWRoOjXYTQ9yujxAu7\ne3k4+JRBAqGdDVIRRq5vXB2D5nJBIhQjVjylumn+QnTX/MdZx8qn7X96npUwHwIh\nylCgUmsYXcjP08X/AXEcP5bPOkgBBCKjWmcm+p01RQSOM0nSptyxpyXzr2ppWe1b\nuYdRYDWj+JV7vm+jJA4NiFv4UnAhoG5lRATADzu0/6wpMK3dVMBL7L0jQoV5xBAb\nLADOy5hD9XEII3VPkUqDGIKM+Z24flkCIf0lQ7FjsoZ2mmM1SZJ5vPDcjMKreFkX\ncWlcwGHN0PUWZWLhb7c8yYa1rauMcwFwv0d2XyOEfgkqEJdCh8mVT/5jR48D2PNG\ncwIDAQAB\n-----END PUBLIC KEY-----\n"
}
```

The JWT has to be provided as a Bearer token in the authorization header, e.g. `Authorization: Bearer `. Currently, all authorized endpoints will be accessible (although `PUT`/`PATCH`/`DELETE` are limited to the user who created the object by default), but later it will be possible to set scopes for certain users (see [#47](https://github.com/gbv/jskos-server/issues/47)).

The authentication is designed to be used together with an instance of [login-server], but it is also possible to use your own JWTs.

#### JWT Example
The recommended Node.js library for creating JWTs is [jsonwebtoken](https://github.com/auth0/node-jsonwebtoken). Note that for simplicity, we are using the HS256 algorithm which is symmetrical. In most cases, it would be better to use RS256 with a libarary like [node-rsa](https://github.com/rzcoder/node-rsa) instead.

Simple config, restricting the `/mappings` endpoint with authentication:
```json
{
"auth": {
"algorithm": "HS256",
"key": "yoursecret"
},
"mappings": {
"read": {
"auth": true
}
}
}
```

Creating a JWT:
```js
const jwt = require("jsonwebtoken")
// Payload is an object containing the user object with an URI:
const data = {
user: { uri: "urn:test:hallo" }
}
// Sign the token with our secret
const token = jwt.sign(data, "yoursecret", {
algorithm: "HS256",
expiresIn: "7d" // valid for 7 days
})
```

Using the token in a request (using curl):
```bash
# Request without header should return ForbiddenAccessError (code 403)
curl localhost:3000/mappings
# Request with header should return JSON data (insert your own token and jskos-server URL of course)
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1c2VyIjp7InVyaSI6InRlc3Q6aGFsbG8ifSwiaWF0IjoxNTg5NTMyNDU3LCJleHAiOjE1OTAxMzcyNTd9.fXIxgS0QyFk9Lvz7Z-fkb4tAueMTSNZ4zAuB6iwePq4" localhost:3000/mappings
```

If you are the only user that is supposed to be authenticated for your instance of jskos-server, you could in theory use something like this to create a token with a long lifetime and use it for all your requests. Please consider the security implications before doing this though.

#### Login Server Example
If you have multiple users using your instance of jskos-server, it is recommended to use [login-server] for authentication. login-server uses the asymmetrical RS256 algorithm by default and will create a public/private key pair on first launch. The public key will be in `./public.key` and you will need that for the configuration:

```json
{
"auth": {
"algorith": "RS256",
"key": "-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----\nMIIBIjANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOCAQ8AMIIBCgKCAQEA57ZWRoOjXYTQ9yujxAu7\ne3k4+JRBAqGdDVIRRq5vXB2D5nJBIhQjVjylumn+QnTX/MdZx8qn7X96npUwHwIh\nylCgUmsYXcjP08X/AXEcP5bPOkgBBCKjWmcm+p01RQSOM0nSptyxpyXzr2ppWe1b\nuYdRYDWj+JV7vm+jJA4NiFv4UnAhoG5lRATADzu0/6wpMK3dVMBL7L0jQoV5xBAb\nLADOy5hD9XEII3VPkUqDGIKM+Z24flkCIf0lQ7FjsoZ2mmM1SZJ5vPDcjMKreFkX\ncWlcwGHN0PUWZWLhb7c8yYa1rauMcwFwv0d2XyOEfgkqEJdCh8mVT/5jR48D2PNG\ncwIDAQAB\n-----END PUBLIC KEY-----\n"
}
}
```

After that, you can use [login-client](https://github.com/gbv/login-client) to interact with your login-server instance and receive JWTs. When using WebSockets, login-server will periodically send a new JWT before the previous one expires. You can then use that to authenticate your requests to jskos-server. (An example on how to use login-client can be found in the [source code of login-server](https://github.com/gbv/login-server/blob/master/views/api.ejs).)

For testing your authentication without a full-fledged solution using login-client, you can use http://localhost:3004/token (where `localhost:3004` is your instance of login-server) to request a JWT.

---

Note about previous additional options for `auth`:
- `postAuthRequired`: now covered by `mappings.create.auth`
- `whitelist`: now covered by `identities`
- `allowCrossUserEditing`: now covered by `mappings.update.crossUser` and `mappings.delete.crossUser`

### Data Import
JSKOS Server provides scripts to import JSKOS data into the database or delete data from the database. Right now, mappings, terminologies (concept schemes), concepts, concordances, and annotations, in JSON (object or array of objects) or [NDJSON](http://ndjson.org) format are supported.

#### Import Notes
**About hierarchies within concepts:** Hierarchies are supported. However, only the `broader` field will be used during import. Both `ancestors` and `narrower` will be removed and the respective endpoints ([GET /concepts/ancestors](#get-conceptsancestors) and [GET /concepts/narrower](#get-conceptsnarrower)) will dynamically rebuild these properties. That means that when converting your data, please normalize it so that the hierarchy is expressed via the `broader` field in JSKOS.

Example scheme (as JSON object) with concepts in a hierarchy (as NDJSON):
```json
{
"uri": "urn:test:scheme",
"notation": [
"TEST"
],
"uriPattern": "^urn:test:concept-(.+)$"
}
```
```json
{ "topConceptOf": [{ "uri": "urn:test:scheme" }], "uri": "urn:test:concept-a" }
{ "inScheme": [{ "uri": "urn:test:scheme" }], "uri": "urn:test:concept-a.1", "broader": [{ "uri": "urn:test:concept-a" }] }
{ "inScheme": [{ "uri": "urn:test:scheme" }], "uri": "urn:test:concept-a.2", "broader": [{ "uri": "urn:test:concept-a" }] }
{ "topConceptOf": [{ "uri": "urn:test:scheme" }], "uri": "urn:test:concept-b" }
{ "inScheme": [{ "uri": "urn:test:scheme" }], "uri": "urn:test:concept-b.1", "broader": [{ "uri": "urn:test:concept-b" }] }
{ "inScheme": [{ "uri": "urn:test:scheme" }], "uri": "urn:test:concept-b.1.1", "broader": [{ "uri": "urn:test:concept-b.1" }] }
{ "inScheme": [{ "uri": "urn:test:scheme" }], "uri": "urn:test:concept-b.1.2", "broader": [{ "uri": "urn:test:concept-b.1" }] }
```

(Note that a notation for the concepts can be omitted because we have defined `uriPattern` on the concept scheme. Also, we don't need to define `inScheme` for concepts with `topConceptOf`.)

**About the `created` property for concept schemes:** The import script uses the bulk write endpoints to import data. For concept schemes, this means that any existing data for imported schemes will be **overwritten** and replaced with the new data. This includes especially the `created` property which might not exist in your source data and will be set on import if necessary. If you need a consistent `created` date, make sure that your source data already includes this field.

#### Import Script
Examples of using the import script:
```bash

# Create indexes for all types
npm run import -- --indexes
# Import RVK scheme (from coli-conc API)
npm run import -- schemes https://coli-conc.gbv.de/rvk/api/voc
# Import RVK concepts (this will take a while)
npm run import -- concepts https://coli-conc.gbv.de/rvk/data/2019_1/rvko_2019_1.ndjson
# Import coli-conc concordances
npm run import -- concordances https://coli-conc.gbv.de/api/concordances

# Batch import multiple files or URLs
npm run import-batch -- mappings files.txt
# files.txt should contain one file or URL per line with the full path and no escaping.
# You can, for example, store these batch import files in folder `imports` which is ignored in git.
```

**Note: If you have concepts in your database, make sure to run `npm run import -- --indexes` at least once. This will make sure all necessary indexes are created. Without this step, the `/concepts/suggest` and `/concepts/search` endpoints will not work.**

For more information about the import script, run `npm run import -- --help`.

#### Reset Script
It is also possible to delete entities from the server via the command line. Running the command will first determine what exactly will be deleted and ask you for confirmation:
```bash
# Will delete everything from database
npm run reset
# Will delete mappings from database
npm run reset -- -t mappings
# Will delete all concepts that belong to a certain concept scheme URI
npm run reset -- -s http://uri.gbv.de/terminology/rvk/
# Will delete all mappings that belong to a certain concordance URI
npm run reset -- -c https://gbv.github.io/jskos/context.json
# Will delete entities with certain URIs
npm run reset -- http://rvk.uni-regensburg.de/nt/A http://rvk.uni-regensburg.de/nt/B
# Will show help for more information
npm run reset -- --help
```

For scripting, you can use the `yes` command to skip confirmation. **Make sure you know what you're doing!** Example: `yes | npm run reset -- urn:test:uri`.

## Usage

### Run Server
```bash
# Development server with hot reload and auto reconnect at localhost:3000 (default)
npm run start

# To run the server in production, run this:
NODE_ENV=production node ./server.js
```

### Run Tests
Tests will use the real MongoDB with `-test-${namespace}` appended to the database name.

```bash
npm test
```

### Run Supplemental Scripts
There are some supplemental scripts that were added to deal with specific sitatuations. These can be called with `npm run extra name-of-script`. The following scripts are available:

- `supplementNotationsInMappings`: This will look for mappings where the field `notation` is missing for any of the concepts, and it will attempt to supplement those notations. This only works for vocabularies which are also imported into the same jskos-server instance and where either `uriPattern` or `namespace` are given.

## API

### General

All API methods stick to the following rules, unless otherwise specified.

#### Requests
- All URL parameters are optional.
- `POST`/`PUT`/`PATCH` requests require a JSON body.
- Alternatively, `POST` can also receive the following inputs:
- any kind of JSON stream
- mutlipart/form-data with the file in `data`
- a URL with JSON data as `url` in the request params
- Note: The `type` request param might be required (either `json`, `ndjson`, or `multipart`)
- All `GET` endpoints returning a certain type of JSKOS data offer the `properties=[list]` parameter, with `[list]` being a comma-separated list of properties.
- All JSKOS types allow removing properties by prefixing the property with `-`. All following properties in the list will also be removed.
- For concepts and mappings, the property `annotations` can be specified to add all annotations in the database for a certain item.
- For concepts, the properties `narrower` and `ancestors` can be specified to add narrower/ancestor concepts to a certain concept.
- Specifying a `*` adds all available properties.
- Example: `properties=*,-narrower,notation` will add properties `annotations` and `ancestors`, and remove the `notation` property from all return items.
- Properties can be explicitly re-added by prefixing them with `+`, e.g. `properties=-from,to,+from` will only remove the `to` property.
- Note that the `+` sign has to be properly encoded as `%2B`, otherwise it will be interpreted as a space.
- All `GET` endpoints (except for `/status` and those with `:_id`) offer pagination via `limit=[number]` (default: 100) and `offset=[number]` (default: 0) parameters. In the response, there will be a `Link` header like described in the [GitHub API documentation](https://developer.github.com/v3/#pagination), as well as a `X-Total-Count` header containing the total number of results.

#### Write access
- `POST`/`PUT`/`PATCH`/`DELETE` requests require [authentication](#authentication) via a JWT from [login-server](https://github.com/gbv/login-server) in the header. Exception: Authentication for certain actions on certain endpoints can be disabled (see [configuration](#configuration)).
- `PUT`/`PATCH`/`DELETE` requests are required to come from the owner of the entity that is being modified.
- `POST`/`PUT`/`PATCH` endpoints will override `creator` and `contributor` of submitted objects (see [this comment](https://github.com/gbv/jskos-server/issues/122#issuecomment-723029967) for more details)
- `PATCH` request bodies are merged on the top level, so it's enough to include object properties to be modified. To remove a top-level property, set it to `null`.

#### Responses
- `GET` requests will return code 200 on success.
- `POST` requests will return code 201 on success.
- `DELETE` requests will return code 204 on success.
- For possible error responses, see [Errors](#errors).

### GET /status
Returns a status object.

There is a [JSON Schema](https://json-schema.org) for the format of this endpoint. It is available under `/status.schema.json` for every jskos-server installation (starting from version 1.0.0). The most recent schema can be accessed here: https://gbv.github.io/jskos-server/status.schema.json

Note that certain properties from the actual configuration will not be shown in the result for `/status`:
- `verbosity`
- `port`
- `mongo`
- `namespace`
- `proxies`
- `ips` (including inside of actions)
- `auth.key` if a symmetrical algorithm is used (HS256, HS384, HS512)

* **Error Response**

In case of an error, for instance a failed database connection, the value of response property `ok` is set to `0`.

### GET /checkAuth
Endpoint to check whether a user is authorized. If `type` or `action` are not set, it will use `identities`/`identityProviders` that are defined directly under config.

* **URL Params**

`type=[type]` one of "schemes", "concepts", "mappings", "annotations" (optional)

`action=[action]` one of "read", "create", "update", "delete" (optional)

### POST /validate
Endpoint to validate JSKOS objects via [jskos-validate].

* **URL Params**

`type=[type]` a [JSKOS object type](https://gbv.github.io/jskos/jskos.html#object-types) that all objects must have (optional)

`unknownFields=[boolean]` with `1` or `true` to allow unknown fields inside objects (by default, unknown fields do not pass validation)

`knownSchemes=[boolean]` with `1` or `true` to use concept schemes available in this jskos-server instance for validation of concepts. Implies `type=concept` and all concept must reference a known concept scheme via `inScheme`.

If neither `type` nor `knownSchemes` are specified, concept schemes in the data to be validated can be used to validate following concepts in the same request array (see last example below).

* **Success Response**

Array with the JSON response provided by [jskos-validate]. The indices of the array correspond to the order of the given data. An element is `true` when the object passed validation, or an array of errors when the object failed validation. Data format of error objects may change in future versions but there is always at least field `message`.

* **Sample Call**

In the following example, an empty object is validated. Since no type is specified, it is validated as a Resource which does not have required field names and therefore passes validation.

```bash
curl -X POST "https://coli-conc.gbv.de/dev-api/validate" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{}'
```

```json
[
true
]
```

In the following example, the same call is given, but the parameter `type` is set to `mapping`. Mappings require the fields `from` and `to`, therefore the empty object fails validation and errors are returned.

```bash
curl -X POST "https://coli-conc.gbv.de/dev-api/validate?type=mapping" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{}'
```

```json
[
[
{
"instancePath": "",
"schemaPath": "#/required",
"keyword": "required",
"params": {
"missingProperty": "from"
},
"message": "must have required property 'from'"
},
{
"instancePath": "",
"schemaPath": "#/required",
"keyword": "required",
"params": {
"missingProperty": "to"
},
"message": "must have required property 'to'"
}
]

]
```

In this example, an array of mixed typed objects is validated (given in file `example.json`):

```json
[
{
"type": [ "http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#ConceptScheme" ],
"uri": "http://example.org/voc",
"notationPattern": "[a-z]+"
},
{
"type": [ "http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#Concept" ],
"uri": "http://example.org/1",
"notation": [ "abc" ],
"inScheme": [ { "uri": "http://example.org/voc" } ]
},
{
"type": [ "http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#Concept" ],
"uri": "http://example.org/2",
"notation": [ "123" ],
"inScheme": [ { "uri": "http://example.org/voc" } ]
}
]
```

The first object is a concept scheme with `notationPattern`. Since the other two elements are concepts of that concept scheme (see `inScheme`), the concepts must additionally pass tests related to URI or notation patterns of the given schemes. Since the last concept has a notation that does not match the pattern, it fails the validation. Note that only object with appropriate `type` field are included in this additional part of validation.

```bash
curl -X POST "https://coli-conc.gbv.de/dev-api/validate" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d @example.json
```

```json
[
true,
true,
[
{
"message": "concept notation 123 does not match [a-z]+"
}
]
]
```

### GET /validate
Same as [POST /validate](#post-validate) but JSKOS data to be validated is passed via URL.

* **URL Params**

`url=[url]` URL to load JSKOS data from

`type=[type]` see [POST /validate](#post-validate)

`unknownFields=[boolean]` see [POST /validate](#post-validate)

`knownSchemes=[boolean]` see [POST /validate](#post-validate)

### GET /data
Returns data for a certain URI or URIs. Can return concept schemes, concepts, concordances, mappings, and annotations. This endpoint does not offer pagination via `limit` and `offset`. It will always return all results. Furthermore, there is no certain order to the result set (but it should be consistent across requests). If a certain type of data requires authentication and the user is not authenticated, that type of data will simply not be returned.

**Note:** As of version 2.0, this endpoint was adjusted to return all types of items that are available in the database, instead of just concepts and concept schemes. The additional parameters, apart from `uri`, were also removed. For the previous behavior (only without returning concept schemes), see [GET /concepts](#get-concepts).

* **URL Params**

`uri=[uri]` URIs for JSKOS items separated by `|` (annotations, despite using `id` instead of `uri`, can also be queried here)

`properties=[list]` with `[list]` being a comma-separated list of properties (currently supporting `ancestors`, `narrower`, and `annotations`)

* **Success Response**

JSON array of [JSKOS Items]

### GET /concordances
Lists all concordances for mappings.

* **URL Params**

`uri=[uri]` URIs for concordances separated by `|`

`fromScheme=[uri|notation]` only show concordances from concept scheme (URI or notation) (separated by `|`)

`toScheme=[uri|notation]` only show concordances to concept scheme (URI or notation) (separated by `|`)

`creator=[creator]` only show concordances from creator (separated by `|`)

`mode=[mode]` specify the mode for the parameters above, one of `and` (default) and `or`

`download=[type]` returns the whole result as a download (available types are `json` and `ndjson`), ignores `limit` and `offset`

* **Success Response**

JSON array of [JSKOS Concordances](https://gbv.github.io/jskos/jskos.html#concordances)

### GET /concordances/:_id
Returns a specific concordance.

* **URL Params**

None

* **Success Response**

JSKOS object for concordance.

* **Error Response**

If no concordance with `_id` could be found, it will return a 404 not found error.

### POST /concordances
Saves one or more concordances in the database. Note that `fromScheme` and `toScheme` must be supported by the jskos-server instance.

* **URL Params**

None

* **Success Reponse**

JSKOS Concordance object(s) as were saved in the database.

* **Error Response**

When a single concordance is provided, an error can be returned if there's something wrong with it (see [errors](#errors)). When multiple concordances are provided, the first error will be returned.

### PUT /concordances/:_id
Overwrites a concordance in the database.

* **Success Reponse**

JSKOS Concordance object as it was saved in the database.

Note that any changes to the `uri`, `notation`, `fromScheme`, `toScheme`, `extent`, `distributions`, and `created` properties will be ignored. (No error will be thrown in this case.)

### PATCH /concordances/:_id
Adjusts a concordance in the database.

* **Success Reponse**

JSKOS Concordance object as it was saved in the database.

Note that changes to the properties `uri`, `notation`, `fromScheme`, `toScheme`, `created`, `extent`, and `distributions` are currently not allowed and will result in an [InvalidBodyError](#InvalidBodyError).

### DELETE /concordances/:_id
Deletes a concordance from the database.

* **Success Reponse**

Status 204, no content.

**Note that only concordances which have no mappings associated can be deleted.**

### GET /mappings
Returns an array of mappings. Each mapping has a property `uri` under which the specific mapping can be accessed.

* **URL Params**

`identifier=[identifier1|identifier2|...]` specify mapping identifiers separated by `|`

`from=[uriOrNotation1|uriOrNotation2|...]` specify the source URI or notation (truncated search possible by appending a `*`, multiple URIs/notations separated by `|`)

`fromScheme=[uriOrNotation1|uriOrNotation2|...]` only show mappings from concept scheme (URI or notation, multiple URIs/notations separated by `|`)

`to=[uriOrNotation1|uriOrNotation2|...]` specify the target URI or notation (truncated search possible by appending a `*`, multiple URIs/notations separated by `|`)

`toScheme=[uriOrNotation1|uriOrNotation2|...]` only show mappings to concept scheme (URI or notation, multiple URIs/notations separated by `|`)

`mode=[mode]` specify the mode for `from`/`fromScheme`, `to`/`toScheme`, and `identifier`, one of `and` (default) and `or`; note that 1) multiple values given for a single parameter are always connected via "or", and 2) `from` and `fromScheme` / `to` and `toScheme` are always connected via "and"

`direction=[direction]` specify the direction of the mapping. Available values are: `forward` (default), `backward` (essentially swaps `from` and `to`), `both` (combines forward and backward).

`type=[uri1|uri2|...]` only show mappings that conform to a certain type or types (see [JSKOS Concept Mappings]) (URIs separated by `|`)

`partOf=[uri1|uri2|...]` only show mappings that are part of certain concordances (URIs separated by `|`); value `none` returns mappings that are not part of a concordance, value `any` returns mappings that are part of any concordance

`creator=[string1|string2|...]` only show mappings that have a certain creator (separated by `|`)

`annotatedBy=[uri1|uri2|...]` has annotations by user with URI(s)

`annotatedFor=[motivation]` has annotations with a certain motivation (e.g. `assessing`); value `none` returns mappings that have no annotations at all, value `any` returns mappings that have any kind of annotation, values starting with `!` (e.g. `!assessing`) filter out annotations with that motivation. Note that to mitigate performance issues with negative assertions (`none` or `!xyz`), jskos-server will return the number 9999999 in the `X-Total-Count` header (see [this](https://github.com/gbv/jskos-server/issues/176#issuecomment-1167188606)).

`annotatedWith=[body]` has annotations with a certain body value (e.g. `+1`) OR has a sum of assessment annotations that conforms to the given comparison operation; for the latter, either `from` or `to` must be given, `annotatedFor` must be either not set or set to `assessing`, and the value of this parameter needs to consist of a comparison operator (`=`, `<`, `>`, `<=`, or `>=`) followed by a number. Example: `annotatedWith=>0` returns mappings with a positive assessment sum (equivalent to `annotatedWith=>=1`).

`properties=[list]` with `[list]` being a comma-separated list of properties (currently supporting only `annotations` for mappings)

`download=[type]` returns the whole result as a download (available types are `json`, `ndjson`, `csv`, and `tsv`), ignores `limit` and `offset`; **note**: `csv` and `tsv` are restricted (and fixed) to 5 target concepts, meaning that if the data set includes a mapping with more than 5 target concepts, only the first 5 will appear in the export

`sort=[sort]` sorts by a specific field. Available are `created`, `modified`, and `mappingRelevance` (default). Results will always be additionally sorted by `from.memberSet.uri` and `_id` in order to create a stable and sensible sort.

`order=[order]` order to use for sorting. Available are `asc` and `desc` (default).

`cardinality=[cardinality]` cardinality of the mapping. Available are `1-to-n` (default) and `1-to-1`.

* **Success Response**

### GET /mappings/infer
Returns mappings based on stored mappings and mappings derived by inference. If a request to [GET /mappings](#get-mappings) results in stored mappings, only those are returned. If no stored mappings match the request, the following algorithm is applied to infer virtual mappings (this is experimental and not all source schemes are supported):

- Ancestors of the requested concept (`from`) are traversed from narrower to broader until matching mapping(s) from one of the ancestor concepts are found.

- The resulting mappings are filtered and transformed based on their mapping type:

- `exactMatch` and `narrowMatch` result in `narrowMatch` (for instance *Optics < Sciences* when no mappings from *Optics* are stored but e.g. *Physics* is ancestor of *Optics* and mapped to *Sciences*)

- `closeMatch` results in `narrowMatch` unless query parameter `strict` is set to a true value. In this case mappings of this type are ignored (for instance *Optics* < *Alchemy* when *Physics* is ancestor of *Optics* and mapped to *Alchemy* but this may lead to doubtful mappings such as *Computational Physics* < *Alchemy*)

- `relatedMatch` and `mappingRelation` are not changed.

Inferred mappings don't have fields such as `uri`, `identifier`, `creator`, `created`... but `uri` of the mapping used for inference is included in `source`.

* **URL Params**

This endpoint takes the same parameters as [GET /mappings](#get-mappings), except that `to`, `download`, and `cardinality` (fixed to "1-to-1") are not supported. Parameter `direction` only supports the default value "forward". Parameters `from` and `fromScheme` are mandatory to get a non-empty result.

`strict=[boolean]` values `1` or `true` disallow mapping type "closeMatch" for inferred mappings (default `false`)

`depth=[number]` a non-negative number of the depth used to infer mappings (not set by default); `0` means no inference, `1` means only the next ancestor concept (= broader) is used for inference, etc.

* **Success Response**

JSON array of [JSKOS Concept Mappings]

When a single mapping is provided, an error can be returned if there's something wrong with it (see [errors](#errors)). When multiple mappings are provided, the first error will be returned, except if bulk mode is enabled in which errors for individual mappings are ignored.

Note that the `partOf` property is currently not allowed. Associating a mapping with a concordances has to be done in a separate [PUT](#put-mappings_id) or [PATCH](#patch-mappings_id) request.

### PUT /mappings/:_id
Overwrites a mapping in the database.

* **Success Reponse**

JSKOS Mapping object as it was saved in the database.

Note that any changes to the `created` property will be ignored. Note that changes to `partOf` (i.e. association with a concordance) are only possible if 1) `fromScheme` and `toScheme` are equal between the mapping and the concordance, 2) the authenticated user is creator of the mapping OR if the mapping is already part of a concordance, the user is creator/contributor of that concordance, and 3) the user is creator/contributor of the target concordance (if given).

### PATCH /mappings/:_id
Adjusts a mapping in the database.

* **Success Reponse**

JSKOS Mapping object as it was saved in the database.

Note that any changes to the `created` property will be ignored. Note that changes to `partOf` (i.e. association with a concordance) are only possible if 1) `fromScheme` and `toScheme` are equal between the mapping and the concordance, 2) the authenticated user is creator of the mapping OR if the mapping is already part of a concordance, the user is creator/contributor of that concordance, and 3) the user is creator/contributor of the target concordance (if given).

// Note: The `language` parameter at other endpoints means "give me labels in these languages". That's why it should have a different name here. Until then, it is removed.

`subject=URIs` subject URI(s) to filter schemes, separated by `|`

`license=URIs` license URI(s) to filter schemes, separated by `|`

`publisher=URI|label` publisher URI or label to filter schemes (only exact matches)

`partOf=URIs` filter by registry URI that is listed in `partOf` field of the scheme, separated by `|`

`sort=[property]` sort the results by a certain property. Possible values: `label` (preferred or alternative label in English or other languages), `notation` (string), `created` (timestamp), `modified` (timestamp), `counter` (number after last `/` in URI)

`order=[order]` order to use for sorting. Available are `asc` (default) and `desc`.

### GET /annotations/:_id
Returns a specific annotation.

* **Success Response**

Object for annotation in [Web Annotation Data Model] format.

* **Error Response**

If no annotation with `_id` could be found, it will return a 404 not found error.

* **Sample Call**

```bash

"type": "Annotation"
}
```

### POST /annotations
Saves an annotation or multiple annotations in the database.

* **URL Params**

`bulk=[boolean]` `1` or `true` enable bulk mode for importing multiple annotations into the database. Errors for individual annotations will be ignored and existing annotations will be overridden. The resulting set will only include the `id` for each annotation that was written into the database.

* **Success Reponse**

Annotation object or array of object as was saved in the database in [Web Annotation Data Model] format, or array of annotation objects with only a `id` if bulk mode was used.

* **Error Response**

When a single annotation is provided, an error can be returned if there's something wrong with it (see [errors](#errors)). When multiple annotations are provided, the first error will be returned, except if bulk mode is enabled in which errors for individual annotations are ignored.

### PUT /annotations/:_id
Overwrites an annotation in the database.

* **Success Reponse**

Annotation object as it was saved in the database in [Web Annotation Data Model] format.

Note that any changes to the `created` property will be ignored.

### PATCH /annotations/:_id
Adjusts an annotation in the database.

* **Success Reponse**

Annotation object as it was saved in the database in [Web Annotation Data Model] format.

Note that any changes to the `created` property will be ignored.

### DELETE /annotations/:_id
Deletes an annotation from the database.

* **Success Reponse**

Status 204, no content.

### Errors
If possible, errors will be returned as a JSON object in the following format (example):

```json
{
error: "EntityNotFoundError",
status: 404,
message: "The requested entity ABC could not be found.",
}
```

The following errors are currently caught and returned as JSON:

#### EntityNotFoundError
Status code 404. Will be returned if `GET /mappings/:_id` or `GET /annotations/:_id` are requested with an unknown ID.

#### MalformedBodyError
Status code 400. Will be returned for `POST`/`PUT`/`PATCH` if the body was not JSON or missing.

#### MalformedRequestError
Status code 400. Will be returned if a required parameter is missing (currently implemented in `GET /.../:_id` endpoints, but should not be possible to reach).

#### DuplicateEntityError
Status code 422. Will be returned for `POST` if an entity with the same ID/URI already exists in the database.

#### InvalidBodyError
Status code 422. Will be returned for `POST`/`PUT`/`PATCH` if the body was valid JSON, but could not be validated (e.g. does not pass the JSKOS Schema).

#### CreatorDoesNotMatchError
Status code 403. Will be returned by `PUT`/`PATCH`/`DELETE` endpoints if the authenticated creator does not match the creator of the entity that is being edited.

#### BackendError
Status code 500. Will be returned if there's a backend error not related to the database or configuration.

#### DatabaseAccessError
Status code 500. Will be returned if the database is not available or if the current database request failed with an unknown error.

#### DatabaseInconsistencyError
Status code 500. Will be returned if there is an inconsistency issue with our database. Please [contact us](https://coli-conc.gbv.de/contact/) with the full error message if this occurs!

#### ConfigurationError
Status code 500. Will be returned if there is an error in the configuration that prevents the application from working correctly.

#### ForbiddenAccessError
Status code 403. Will be returned if the user is not allow access (i.e. when not on the whitelist or when an identity provider is missing).

## Deployment
The application is currently deployed at http://coli-conc.gbv.de/api/. At the moment, there is no automatic deployment of new versions.

### Notes about depolyment on Ubuntu
It is recommended to use a [newer version of Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/#debian-and-ubuntu-based-linux-distributions). Installing the dependencies might also require installing nodejs-legacy: `sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy` ([more info here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21168141/cannot-install-packages-using-node-package-manager-in-ubuntu)). One possibility for running the application in production on Ubuntu 16.04 is described [here](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-node-js-application-for-production-on-ubuntu-16-04). (Information about restarting pm2-based services on system reboot [here](https://pm2.keymetrics.io/docs/usage/startup/).)

### Update an instances deployed with PM2
```
# get updates from repository
git pull

# install dependencies
npm ci

# restart the process (adjust process name if needed)
pm2 restart jskos-server
```

### Daily Import
If you'd like to run the import script daily to refresh current mappings, you can for example use a cronjob:

```bash
# Runs import script for jskos-server in /srv/cocoda/jskos-server at 1 AM each day.
00 01 * * * cd /srv/cocoda/jskos-server; ./scripts/import.sh
```

### Running Behind a Reverse Proxy
There are certain things to consider when running `jskos-server` behind a reverse proxy:

1. Make sure the base URL is configured correctly in `config.json` so that correct URIs will be generated. Test this by creating a new mapping and making sure the URI of that mapping is correct and accessible.

1. Provide a list of trusted proxy IPs or ranges in the `proxies` key in `config.json`. E.g. `"proxies": ["123.456.789.101", "234.567.891.011"]`. See also: [Express behind proxies](https://expressjs.com/en/guide/behind-proxies.html).

1. The reverse proxy should be configured so that the base URL has a trailing slash: ~~`https://example.com/api`~~ ❌ - `https://example.com/api/` ✅ (Note: Not implementing this has no further consequences except that `/api` will not be accessible.)

1. The reverse proxy should also be configured so that any URL **except** the base URL has **no** trailing slash: ~~`https://example.com/api/status/`~~ ❌ - `https://example.com/api/status` ✅

1. Make sure the target parameter (i.e. the actual IP and port where `jskos-server` is running) has a trailing slash.

1. Make sure the proxy is configured to correctly set the `X-Forwarded-For` header.

The following would be an example for 2./3./4. with an Apache reverse proxy:

```apacheconf

Define API_PATH /api
ServerName example.com

RewriteEngine on
# Remove trailing slash from everything EXCEPT the base URL
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^${API_PATH}/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)/+$ $1 [R=301,L]
# Force trailing slash for base URL only
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^${API_PATH}$
RewriteRule ^(.+[^/])$ %{REQUEST_URI}/ [R=301,L]

# Forward to jskos-server
ProxyPass ${API_PATH}/ http://127.0.0.1:3000/
ProxyPassReverse ${API_PATH}/ http://127.0.0.1:3000/

# ...

```
