For my own education, can someone clarify the SWORD2 conversation between client & server?
As I understand it, it goes something like this: ** conversation one ** Client: Hello server, I'd like to transfer something, what are my options for locations? Server: Hello client. I need you to identify yourself before you can access any sensitive information. C: OK - my authentication credentials are blah. S: Thank you. You can deposit into the following places [list of "collections", along with a set of information on each one] C: Excellent. Please put the included stuff into location 123 S: Thank you. I've done that, and here's some details about the deposit for future reference ** conversation two ** Client: Hello server, I'd like to [view|modify] record xyz Server: Hello client. I need you to identify yourself before I can do that. C: OK - my authentication credentials are blah. S: Thank you. Here is the record /or/ I have updated the record. Here's some details about the record for future reference [optionally] C: Hello server, I'd like to [view|modify] record xyz some more S: Thank you. Here is the record /or/ I have updated the record. Here's some details about the record for future reference ... and repeat as needed Is that about right? -- Ian Stuart.
