This document contains Representational
State Transfer (REST) Bindings to the CTS2 OMG Specification. Certain patterns are used
throughout the document: <ul> <li>Accessing a Resource By a 'Name'</li> A CTS2
Resource may be accessed by its unique identifier, or 'Name.' To access a CTS2 Resource by name,
the convention is <br/> <code> /{resourceType}/{name} </code> <br/>
<li>Accessing a Resource By a 'URI'</li> A CTS2 Resource may also be accessed by its
URI or "AlternatemID." This convention varies slighly from the 'by name' convention in that the
URI is not specified in the URL path, but as a query parameter. This is done to eliminate the
need for complex encoding that would be necessary to embed a URI into a URL path. The convention
for accessing a resource by its URI is <br/> <code>
/{resourceType}byuri?uri={uri|alternateId} </code> <br/> <li>Accessing a
'Directory' of Resources</li> In CTS2, a group of like Resources is called a 'Directory.' A
Directory may be filtered and sorted based on client input. Also, Directories are pageable, with
hrefs to included the next and previous page. The convention for accessing a Directory of
resources is <br/> <code> /{resourceType}s </code> <br/>
<li>Creating a Resource</li> CTS2 Resources are created via a 'POST' request to the
<code> /{resourceType} </code> URL path. The request will retrun a reference to the
created Resource in the form of the 'Location' HTTP Header. <li>Updating a
Resource</li> CTS2 Resources are created via a 'PUT' request to the the actaul 'Location'
of the Resource. This in effect completely replaces the existing Resource with the new Resource.
<li>Deleting a Resource</li> A DELETE request is similar to a UPDATE request,
exception that the 'DELETE' HTTP method is used. </ul> <br/> <br/> For more
information about CTS2, visit the <a href="http://informatics.mayo.edu/cts2">CTS2
Site<a> <br/> <br/> <b/>NOTE:<b/> Each 'by URI' request must accept
any parameters that are allowed by the 'read by name' requests. For example,
'/codesystembyuri?uri=http://some/cs' must accept the same parameters as the equivalent 'read by
name' request, such as '/codesystem/CS'.

resource in the service. <i>NameOrURI</i> is only used as an input
parameter and its type is always defined by the usage context. Note that service

implementations, as there is no guarantee that any two CTS2 service
implementations will use the same local identifiers for the same resources.

<i>StatementReadService</i> provides direct access to statements -
assertions about CTS2 resources, entities, associations, concept domain bindings
and map entries.
<i>StatementQueryService </i>provides an ability to filter directories
of statements by subject, predicate, target and/or model element. It should be
noted that the functionality provided her has significant overlap with
specifications such as SPARQL and the API4KB. It is not the intent of the CTS2
specification to compete with or offer alternatives to these specifications. The
key differences between this API and those mentioned above is the
<i>Statement</i> model. First, it differentiates between simple
resource URIs and the namespace/name structure in entity references. Secondly it
provides bridge information that identifies how CTS2 structures were derived
from more atomic information. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, it provides
provenance and history for the sets of assertions in statements. The query service
itself could (and probably should) be implemented using triple stores, SPARQL, or
other alternatives.
The
<i>StatementHistoryService</i> provides the ability to view the history
of changes for an individual statement. A key to implementing this service is the
ability to uniquely identify a statement, which is the equivalent of constructing
some sort of identifier in the process of reification. The CTS2 specification is
silent when it comes to how these identifiers are formed, but does note that the
ability to talk meaningfully about statements globally (vs. within the context of a
single service) requires that a reproducible algorithm needs to be available.
A service
that allows the creation, update and removal of value set definitions.
A service
that provides the change history for a value set definition.
The
<i>ValueSetResolutionService</i> provides the ability to resolve value
set definitions against code system versions - versions that can either be supplied
directly or via version tags. The resolution of a value set can be returned as a
iterable directory,, an entity directory that can be used in other entity directory
functions (useful only if the service supports the <b>ENTITY</b>
profile), or as a resolved value set. Value sets can also be tested for the
presence or absence of entities.
