       perpetual access to the scholarly record

This repository contains source code for 'fatcat', an editable catalog of
published written works (mostly journal articles), with a focus on tracking
the location and status of full-text copies to ensure "perpetual access".

The [RFC](./fatcat-rfc.md) is the original design document, and the best place
to start for technical background. There is a work-in-progress "guide" at
<https://guide.fatcat.wiki>; the canonical public location of this repository
is <https://github.com/internetarchive/fatcat>.

The public production web interface is <https://fatcat.wiki>.

See the `LICENSE` file for detailed permissions and licensing of both python
and rust code. In short, the auto-generated client libraries are permissively
released, while the API server and web interface are strong copyleft (AGPLv3).

## Building and Tests

There are three main components:

- backend API server and database (in Rust)
- API client libraries and bots (in Python)
- front-end web interface (in Python; built on API and library)

Automated integration tests run on Gitlab CI (see `.gitlab-ci.yml`) on the
Internet Archive's internal (not public) infrastructure.

See `./python/README.md` and `./rust/README.md` for details on building,
running, and testing these components.

The python client library, which is automatically generated from the API
schema, lives under `./python_openapi_client/`.
