Tetherless World Constellation

UPDATED SPRING 2021: TW Portal instance data cannot be edited through a UI; you must check out the RDF, manually edit it, and commit your changes:

1. Check out the instance data from subversion:
   
   svn co https://scm.tw.rpi.edu/svn/public/rdf2html/trunk/instances/ (VERIFIED: 17 Aug 2020; again 08 Apr 2021)
   
2. Edit and add files as needed. The unix command grep is your friend.
3. VALIDATE YOUR RDF USING A SEMANTIC WEB TOOL. w3c validator
4. Check in you changes: PLEASE use descriptive text for your commit message!
   
   $ svn commit -m "Adding forgotten authors..."
   NOTE: You must be a member of svnUsers to commit. Please email John Erickson if you need access
5. ADMINS:
   • If you are confident in the changes made, ssh into tetherless.rpi.edu and update any committed instance data:
     • $ cd /var/www/html/tw.rpi.edu/instances/
     • $ svn update
   • Finally, run  /usr/sbin/reloadtwc to re-load the triplestore (also runs a brief test query):
     • $ sudo /usr/sbin/reloadtwc
6. FINAL NOTES:
   • When verifying your changes via Drupal, remember that you must force a cache refresh by editing and saving the Drupal page!
   • When all else fails, query the triple store: http://tw.rpi.edu:2020/query.html
   • For reference see the stored queries: http://tw.rpi.edu/queries
