WebVOWL cannot be rebuild
Hi @vitalis-wiens , we are trying to rebuild WebVOWL but it is not possible
All the images for WebVOWL are relying on a .war file that was downloaded from http://downloads.visualdataweb.de/webvowl_${version}.war , but of course this website is down now, e.g. http://downloads.visualdataweb.de/webvowl_1.1.6.war, actually the whole download website is down, so maybe all the links and software your institute has been building are now thrown to the trash and cannot be redownloaded?
I did not find instructions to find or rebuild this war file. I found this repo that seems to be related: https://github.com/VisualDataWeb/OWL2VOWL but it only got instructions for a jar file
Tips for reproducibility:
- When your "service" have dependencies to multiple executable, at least provide a stable link where this executable can be downloaded/rebuilt (these should really not be hosted under your institute website because this will go down, just add the built executable to GitHub so that if people find your code they also find your executables)
- You should build you
.war
file in the docker container also (or at least give the informations that manage to find this war and rebuild it). Or just add the.war
file in the GitHub repo, that cost nothing and you get everything at the same place. Convenient!!
The Dockefile seems outdated, but you can build it and execute with node within a container just the same.
Also this, https://github.com/VisualDataWeb/WebVOWL/pull/181
@vemonet You can check out the alternate to that on this thread.
