The Mangal

The Koetai network — a directory of every running instance.

A mangal is the whole ecosystem of many mangroves. Each Koetai node watches its own RDF graphs — the mangroves — from the waterline, like the anableps for which it is named. This page is the ecosystem that ties those nodes together. Machine-readable: curl -H 'Accept: text/turtle' https://mangal.semscape.org — a dcat:Catalog of the instances below.

Run your own Koetai

Koetai is open source. You bring a triplestore backend (QLever, Fuseki, Oxigraph, or a Comunica federation) and Koetai gives it a FAIR front door — ORCID sign-in, a SPARQL workbench, a FAIR Data Point and VoID statistics.

  1. Clone the platform:
    git clone https://github.com/Koetai/koetai-platform.git
  2. Configure a triplestore backend and your BASE_URL in config.py / environment.
  3. Run it behind a reverse proxy on your own domain and load your datasets.

Get listed in the Mangal

Once your instance is online, add it to the registry with a pull request:

  1. Edit mangal.yaml in the koetai-platform repository.
  2. Add a block with your name, url, operator, orcid and a short description.
  3. Open the PR. Once merged, every node re-renders the list on its next redeploy, so your instance appears across the whole network.
Add your instance
The registry is served as RDF using DCAT (dcat:Catalog / dcat:DataService) — request Accept: text/turtle to harvest it.
