This is version 2.1.0 of the Research Software Directory as a service. Main changes compared to v2.0.0 are:

  • added support for pre-defined software categories
  • added support for reference papers for software
  • added a citation scraper for reference papers using OpenAlex
  • check correctness of GitHub URLs in frontend and scrapers.

In addition, several bugs were fixed.

This release requires an update to the database. A migration script can be found here: https://github.com/research-software-directory/RSD-production/blob/main/database-migration/migration-scripts/2.0.0-to-2.1.0.sql

This version is production ready. If you starting a new RSD instance (without historical data) you can use docker-compose.yml provided in the deployment.zip file. No database migration is required in that case.
