Intro

This resource management UI, also known as Tosca, is a custom built web application adapted from the FacetView project. It provides a faceted search interface allowing users to narrow down search results based on the application of multiple filters.

Excerpts from the Software Design Document:

Dataset Facet Search UI (Tosca)

HySDS provides a web user interface for the user to perform the following functions:

1. Facet search on datasets ingested and/or published into the system

2. Manual management of job datasets (purge, generate wget script)

3. Submit on-demand jobs

4. CRUD management of trigger rules for job types 

Interface Description

Browser-based interactive web app. The communication protocol is over secured Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTPS).

Format

Input is text/string based and is entered via various web forms. For searching, input is a combination of typing text/string into a search input field and clicking on facet values.
