We'd love to think about coordinating efforts with you.\r\n\r\n[Psych-DS](psych-ds.github.io) is an in-progress technical specification for datasets in psychology, which uses Schema.org compliant metadata. We began this project as a conference hackathon this summer, and since then have been hashing out the specification and simultaneously coming to learn who all else is working on related projects (including Frictionless Data, and now thanks to your issue #71, DataCrate!).  Eventually we hope Psych-DS will support specific subfields to converge on more standard ways of representing particular kinds of data, but have realized that getting social scientists on a shared technical footing & ensuring discoverability is a big deal! The project is heavily inspired by [BIDS](http://bids.neuroimaging.io/) for neuroimaging data.\r\n\r\nWe are currently in the stage of wrapping up the draft of the written technical specification and beginning to 'road test' it on some real datasets. Beyond creating dataset-level metadata we are attempting to enforce some basic folder organization, file formatting/naming, and well-structured documentation of variables. ([Here's](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1u8o5jnWk0Iqp_J06PTu5NjBfVsdoPbBhstht6W0fFp0/edit#) a direct link to the long-form specification doc.)\r\n\r\nAt the same time, some intrepid coders started working on some standalone R-Shiny apps designed to produce this kind of output. In particular, Erin Buchanan (@doomlab) forked dataspice a while ago to try and tinker with it, and has been working with undergrads to write a tutorial that's appropriate for people who haven't used R before to approach a tool like dataspice. \r\n\r\nHere is Erin's update: \"We took the structure of dataspice – a grouping of shiny apps that one interacted with using RStudio – and converted it into one Shiny app that is published to the web for anyone to use. The app auto builds the CSV structured files from an uploaded dataset and then allows the user to step through entering the information for the access, attributes, bibliography, and creators files.  Here, we fixed a couple typos and other issues that was prohibiting dataspice from being fully functioning and added more detailed instructions. The app still allows users to “write spice” and create a schema.org compliant JSON file and HTML report with some CSS tweaks.\"\r\n\r\nErin will have more details on the structure of [the version she's been working on](https://github.com/doomlab/data-dictionary/tree/master/dataschema), and we'd love to talk about ways to join forces or coordinate.  In particular, would it make sense to open some issues to merge back Erin's work, or is there a better way to start out than that? If it makes sense, we can put out a call to the Psych-DS mailing list to see if we have some extra hands to help. \r\n\r\nAlso, if anyone has time to take a look, we'd love to know if you have any feedback on how Psych-DS could work more smoothly with apps like dataspice, or if you see anything we haven't considered that might cause conflicts.\r\n\r\nThanks all!\r\n\r\n- Melissa & Erin\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/ropenscilabs/dataspice/issues/comments/445423922","html_url":"https://github.com/ropenscilabs/dataspice/issues/74#issuecomment-445423922","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/ropenscilabs/dataspice/issues/74","id":445423922,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQ0NTQyMzkyMg==","user":{"login":"amoeba","id":563,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjU2Mw==","avatar_url":"https://avatars2.githubusercontent.com/u/563?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/amoeba","html_url":"https://github.com/amoeba","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/amoeba/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/amoeba/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/amoeba/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/amoeba/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/amoeba/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/amoeba/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/amoeba/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/amoeba/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/amoeba/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-12-08T02:45:18Z","updated_at":"2018-12-08T02:45:18Z","author_association":"COLLABORATOR","body":"This is amazing work, 👏 \t! I love when open source software and awesome people come together.\r\n\r\nCertainly other contributors here can comment to this, but I feel like joining forces is a _great_ idea. I just ran through your linked Shiny app and it's very nicely done and worked pretty well. I haven't run through our Shiny app(s) in a while so I can't draw a comparison but yours seems like it works how ours would/should.\r\n\r\nI think we could potentially merge efforts, round out `dataspice`'s feature set (perhaps renaming it in the process?), go through ropensci onboarding, and finish with a release to CRAN. I have some free time to allocate to this so I could lend a hand with any integrative work we do.\r\n"}}
