This repository hosts the three core sample type vocabularies used in iSamples metadata: material type, material sample (specimen) type, and sampled feature type. The authoritative source files are rdf SKOS vocabularies serialized using Turtle syntax. These are in the vocabulary folder. The docs folder contains Markdown and HTML presentations of the vocabulary content.
The vocabulary respository may be run as a GitHub action. The action.yml (which is required to be located at the root of the repository) defines the action inputs and outputs.
The action is run as a Docker image, and the image is built according to the instructions in the Dockerfile (which is also in the root of the repository, due to Docker's requirement that all things built into the image be located in the same directory).
There is a test file at .github/workflows/integration.yml, which can be run manually using the workflow dispatch option. It contains the necessary instruction to check out the repository and run it as a GitHub action.
The Docker entrypoint of the action is the python file located at .github/actions/vocabularies/github_action_main.py. GitHub is responsible for converting the action parameters into environment variables that the script interprets.
