Read architecture description online: https://o2r.info/architecture

The project

Opening Reproducible Research (o2r) is a DFG-funded research project by Institute for Geoinformatics (ifgi) and University and Regional Library (ULB), University of Münster, Germany. Building on recent advances in mainstream IT, o2r envisions a new architecture for storing, executing and interacting with the original analysis environment alongside the corresponding research data and manuscript. This architecture evolves around so called Executable Research Compendia (ERC) as the container for both research, review, and archival.

Guidelines

See CONTRIBUTING.md

Build

This specification is written in Markdown, rendered with MkDocs using a few Python Markdown extensions, and deployed automatically using a Github Action.

badge for workflow status

Use mkdocs to render it locally.

# pip install mkdocs mkdocs-cinder
mkdocs serve

Automated Builds

The deploy_site.yml will run the mkdocs command on every direct commit or merge on the master branch and deploy the rendered HTML documents to the gh-pages branch in this repository.

The action authenticates its push to the gh-pages branch using the checkout action and the credentials of the user @o2r-user, who has write access to this repository. It is finalized through the github pages deploy action.

Diagrams

The diagrams are created with yEd. All source files (.graphml) are stored in /docs/img. The PNG renderings are exported from yEd with transparent background, a margin of 5, and a scaling factor of 1.0.
