POD Metadata schema would be useful as a JavaScript file #13
Description
Currently the canonical version of the metadata schema is available here:
http://project-open-data.github.io/schema/1_0_final/single_entry.json
It is a JSON file. That means that if I want to use it in any distributed fashion, I have to make an AJAX-style request. This can be problematic in browser applications, and adds async to a Node.js app that really shouldn't have to be there.
A better approach might be to:
- make a standalone Git repository for the schema to live in
- expose a JavaScript file that wraps the JSON object in a variable name. That allows me to include the schema in a front-end application with
<script>tags - write a
package.jsonand register with NPM for use in Node.js apps
