Automating Author Identification

This is the first operational version of the automated metadata application. We've updated it to meet the requirements of the DeSci Nodes application as a first use case.

The core of this version of the project is to implement one quality-of-life improvement for submitting articles to pre-print servers. It is intended to address the tedium of manually inputting all the OrcIDs for each co-author on a paper and promote consistent application of the OrcID standard.

For documentation on the full scope of the Automating Metadata project see the documentation at the Automating Metadata Repository.

Publication Text Extraction

Aim/Goal

The aim/goal of this is to provide a way to return the author names, affiliations, and OrcID from publications when provided an identifier such as a DOI or any PDF (published or unpublished). See endpoint for an example of the input and outputs for the project.

Setup and use

Make sure you have Docker installed on your machine. You can download it from Docker's official website.

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/DeSci-md/automating-metadata-v1.git
cd your-repository

Build the Docker Image

docker build -t automating-metadata-v1 .

Run the Docker Container

docker run -p 5001:5001 automating-metadata-v1

The application will be available at http://localhost:5001/invoke-script.

Endpoint

The application exposes a single endpoint:

POST /invoke-script

• Request Body: JSON object with pdf and doi fields
• Response: JSON object with output field containing the result of the langchain_orcid2.run() function

Example request:

{
  "pdf": "path/to/pdf/file",
  "doi": "10.1234/example-doi"
}

Example response:

{
  {
   "output":{
      "authors":{
         "M. Anonymous":{
            "@id":"https://orcid.org/0000-0000-0000-0000",
            "affiliation":"Well-known Foundation",

            "role":"Person"
         }
      },
      "title":"The title of the paper is \"The Extracted Title"
   }
}
}
