2      Model

2.1 Operation Model

The SWS initiative defines three operations:

  1. SearchRetrieve Operation. The main operation. The SRU protocol [1] defines a request message (sent from an SRU client to an SRU server) and a response message (sent from the server to the client). This transmission of an SRU request followed by an SRU response constitutes a SearchRetrieve operation.
  2. Scan Operation. The Scan operation is defined by the Scan protocol [2]. Similar to SRU, it defines a request message and a response message. The transmission of a Scan request followed by a Scan response constitutes a Scan operation.
  3. Explain Operation. Every SRU or scan server provides an associated Explain document, providing information about the server’s capabilities, retrievable as the response of an HTTP GET at the base URL for the server.  A client may retrieve this document and use the information to self-configure and provide an appropriate interface to the user. When a client retrieves an Explain document, this constitutes an Explain operation.

2.2 The Explain Document

The purpose of the explain document is to provide sufficient information for a third party to access, query and process results from a database or query service.

The document describes a server’s capability in respect of:

The Explain document may be made by the provider of a database or query service or it may be made by a third party.  The documents are designed to be harvested and collected into centralised registries.  Where made by third parties, the document may or may not be shared. 

The schema for the Explain document is the same, whether created by the provider of the database or query service or provided by a third party.

 

3      Explain Elements

The Explain elements and attributes are shown in the table below. There are xx sections:

  1. the root level
  2. General description of the server and its capabilities
  3. How to formulate a request
  4. How to interpret a response

In addition to the element and attributes specified in this table, proprietary information including derived query languages and context sets may be included.  Proprietary inclusions should be resolvable by namespaces. Similarly, proprietary schemas are permitted as well as well or in lieu of known ones and where included should be resolvable by namespaces.

The document schema has been designed so that documents may be easily mapped to it from existing SRU Zeerex [3] descriptions. Zeerex is the Explain specification for earlier versions of SRU.

 Servers using SRU 2.0 may use a Zeerex document instead of an SRU explain document if they are not using any of the new featured covered by the latter documents. 

In the second column of the table, whose heading is “M/O  R/N” ,  ‘M/O’ means “mandatory or optional” and ‘R/N’  means “repeatable or non-repeatable”. And so the value is one of:
