Showvoc shows docker internal address as sparql endpoint

[Katerina Gkirtzou]

Dear community,

We have set up an installation of vocbench and showvoc, along with their respective external graphdb for our needs via Docker Compose. Furthermore, we opted to hide the different ports behind nginx (we successfully managed to hide 3 out of the 4 ports) along with an SSL certificate for security and accessibility reasons.

In showvoc, we have set the Remote access configuration-> Server UR with: http://showvoc-graphdb:7200/, which is the Docker internal address, following the instructions you provided for setting up showvoc via Docker (https://bitbucket.org/art-uniroma2/showvoc-docker/src/master/).

We've just realised that this information is shown at the public metadata page of our vocabularies under the SPARQL Endpoint label (see screenshot). Is there a way to hide this information from showing, as this is internal information for Showvoc? Furthermore, the graph_db is password-protected, and in theory, it is not accessible. 

 

Let me clarify that we are using the following versions:
SHOWVOC_VERSION="5.0.0"
ST_VERSION="14.0"
VB_VERSION="14.0.0"
GDB_VERSION="10.6.2"

Thanks in advance for your help. 

Kind regards,

Katerina

Dear Katerina,

 

thanks for reporting on the version you are using. I strongly suggest to move to the new VB 15.1 and SV 6.1 as, besides several improvements exactly on metadata (thanks to a new version of the MDR vocabulary exploiting almost all features of DCAT3 and bringing it together with other relevant vocabularies such as VoID and LIME), it offers support for multiple versions (with metadata for each of them), editable forks in VB etc.. and they also removed that endpoint field you would like not to show :-)  (but, in the MDR, you can then represent the official SPARQL endpoint and/or endpoints for the various versions of a dataset, if available)

 

Kind Regards,

 

Armando
