isaitb/validator-kohesio repository overview

⁠Introduction

This container provides a validator for the CSV data files linked to the Kohesio portal⁠. It is used as an on-premise or local alternative to the online validator at https://www.itb.ec.europa.eu/csv/kohesio/upload⁠.

Validation of CSV files is based on a Table Schema⁠ definition, complemented by additional configuration and syntax settings. The configuration is publicly available on GitHub⁠. The validator is based on the CSV validation service⁠ offered by the European Commission's Interoperability Test Bed⁠.

Note: This validator image is offered as a beta version linked to the Kohesio pilot phase for the 2014-2020 programming period. Its next version will be adapted to match the requirements of the 2021-2027 programming period, and complemented with a data template and relevant guidelines.

⁠Usage

To run a local instance of this validator pull this image and run:

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 --name validator-kohesio isaitb/validator-kohesio:latest

Doing so will create a container named validator-kohesio listening on port 8080. The validator can then be used:

• Via user interface at http://localhost:8080/csv/kohesio/upload⁠.
• Via SOAP API at https://localhost:8080/csv/soap/kohesio/validation?wsdl⁠. This is a GITB validation service API (usage instructions here⁠).
