Overview

Some configuration is necessary in order to utilize this repository. On the one hand, a config.js file is needed in order to make specific configurations so that a pipeline works for its intendeed use case. On the other hand, a local.js file is needed to know what user it can use to access the repository. Some pipelines (and its corresponding transforms) demand more configuration than other.

A use case which perhaps need the most configuration is the case where the data source consists of a Catalogue Service for the Web (CSW) which provides data using the Geography Markup Langage (GML). In this case, the data needs to be fetched in small batches by paginating the server, and then converted into RDF. A more common use case is when the data source consists of RDF data, which can be easily fetched in one batch. Then there is no need for more advanced configuration.
