Publishing App for Specialist Documents.
This application does not store documents in a database of its own. Instead it uses Publishing API to store and retrieve documents. MongoDB is used for storing local user records.
For each of the specialist finder schemas, target_stack property can be set to draft to only put the finder content onto the draft stack, and live to publish the finder to the live stack
Some live examples
Nomenclature
-
Format: Category of a Document. Format names are listed in the
Live Examples section above and include MAIB Reports and CMA Cases.
-
Finder: Sometimes Formats are referred to as Finders. They are called ‘Finders’ because each one of them creates a finder on GOV.UK, e.g. https://www.gov.uk/raib-reports. The formats are served by Finder Frontend.
-
Document: Specialist Documents are created by Government editors and can be published to GOV.UK. Documents differ depending on their format, largely determined by the format’s schema.
-
Schema: JSON files defining attributes for each format, including
base_path, document_noun and document_type. It also contains the facets and their possible values for each document_type which are displayed by _form.html.erb.
