Create Accessory Template

[clarisse-lau]

The need for a mechanism to annotate and release accessory files has come up recently: HTAN-283 and HTAN-286

Based on discussions with @adamjtaylor, we will create a minimal record-based Accessory component which can be used to annotate Synapse files, folders, or datasets for any assay type.

@clarisse-lau is there a timeline by which we are trying to complete this template? I would like to make sure this is assigned accordingly to either the current or a future sprint. Thanks!

[clarisse-lau]

No specific timelines, but there are a number of use cases which are awaiting this template, including the issues linked above, and re-annotation of HTAPP auxiliary folders.

Noting this for our 24-3 sprint. Effort on this may occur prior to that sprint (during our 24-2 sprint), but we will at least prioritize this to be done within the 24-3 sprint.

Ok- thank you!
(just fyi, the PR is linked and is ready for review, but understand that as a new component this may take additional time to assess and refine)

[adamjtaylor]

PR looks good. I am merging so that @clarisse-lau can test in staging prior to our sprint end.

[clarisse-lau]

Thanks both! Is this still the link for staging? https://sagebio.shinyapps.io/HTAN-data-curator-staging/

[adamjtaylor]

@clarisse-lau The staging instance is https://dca-staging.app.sagebionetworks.org/

[clarisse-lau]

thank you @adamjtaylor :)

@clarisse-lau I've reopened as you'll need to make a PR to add the Accessory component to this config file

[adamjtaylor]

@clarisse-lau That looks to be showing up in staging DCA now
