This W3ID provides a persistent URI namespace for the AusTraits Plant Dictionary (APD).

AusTraits Plant Dictionary (APD)

The AusTraits Plant Dictionary (APD) is a vocabulary that formally defines more than 500 plant trait concepts. It was developed in conjunction with AusTraits, a database of Australian plant traits.

It is expected to expand to include additional trait concepts. Each trait definition has been reviewed by multiple people and includes references and links to identical/similar traits in other trait databases whenever possible. The APD includes machine-readable formats and endpoints, allowing the traits to be readily re-used by other databases.

Suggestions for changes are welcome and can be posted at https://github.com/traitecoevo/APD/issues/.

Design

  • the .htaccess code is written to process calls to variants of the machine-readable representations before any queries to html, i.e., *.ttl, *.nq, *.nt, and *.json, before *.html. This reduces the number of RewriteCond statements needed in the html section.
  • tested with https://htaccess.madewithlove.com (using https://w3id.org/ as the base URL; https://w3id.org/APD/ won't work, as code is written as though you're already in that subfolder)
  • the following flags are used
    • [R=303] — A redirect. When a server responds with a 303 status code, it provides a Location pointing to a different URI. The client, upon receiving a 303 response, automatically makes a GET request to the URI specified in the Location header.
    • [L] — If the previous conditions pass, this rule is executed, and no more evaluation is done.
    • [NE] — (noescape) Prevents conversion of special characters to their hexcode equivalent; needed for links including a #.
  • the following matches are used
    • RewriteRule ^traits/trait_(.+)$ https://... - the (.+) captures the 1 or more characters after trait_ in the URL
    • RewriteRule ^ https://... - captures any URL that hasn't been matched by the previous rules. Same behaviour as RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://.... Note behaves differently to RewriteRule ^$ https://... which would only match the root URL.
