Links to Specific SumsDB Datasets
- To find a specific dataset, link to the appropriate ‘archive_id’ or to the ‘directory_id’ containing the archive.
- An archive_id may represent a single data file or to a composite ‘tarball’ (e.g., *.tar.gz or *.zip).
- 'Spec file’ archives receive special treatment: each is a single file, but selecting a spec file allows its entire listing of files to be downloaded or viewed online.
- Archive_id. Any given data file can be identified using its archive_id with or without the archive_id appended. For example, the following URL’s both link to the same archive:
- Directory_id links. Any given directory can be identified using its directory_id with or without the directory_name appended. For example, the following URL’s both link to the same directory:
