requesting change to `vegbank` namespace taget URL pattern

[mbjones]

I am the original submitter and maintainer of the https://vegbank.org namespace and collection MIR:00000751, and would like to request a small change We have updated our resolver and would prefer the resolution go top https rather than http URLs. So could you change the URL pattern for resolution from http://vegbank.org/cite/{$id} to https://vegbank.org/cite/{$id}? We are about to release a new major release of vegbank and plan to use identifiers.org in a more central identifier resolution role on the data system.

Thanks,

I just realized that we also need to update the Home URL to use https, and to update our LUI pattern to match new resolvable local identifiers that we support in our VegBank system. New values that we are requesting:

MIR:00000751

URL Pattern	https://vegbank.org/cite/{$id}
Home URL	https://vegbank.org/
LUI Pattern:     ^((VB\.)?(?i:ds|cc|ob|pc|to|py)\..*|doi:10.82902\/.*)$

Thank you.

Thank you for your patience. I noticed that the . in regex ( doi:10.82902) is not escaped. This means your regex would match doi:10X82902/ or doi:10-82902/. Is this an expected behaviour? and if so i will make the change. I have made the change for the home url and url pattern to have https.

Please let me know if there is anything else needed from our end.

Thanks @vijayvenkateshs and good catch -- please do escape the . in the doi, as we want to match the literal there. So the revised pattern would be:

LUI Pattern:      ^((VB\.)?(?i:ds|cc|ob|pc|to|py)\..*|doi:10\.82902\/.*)$

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the changed LUI Pattern, I also noticed that the sample ID provided ( VB.Ob.3736.GRSM125) does not match the LUI pattern provided. Is this expected behaviour and if so can you provide an updated one so that we can update that as well on the registry entry.

Can you elaborate why you say the regex doesn't match? And which regex grammar variant you are using? I tried it with a regex tester on the sample ID and a bunch of other strings, and the sample and others all matched as intended under PCRE2 and legacy, as well as other language variants. You can see my test results in the regex tester if that is helpful.

Once I figure out where the mismatch is I am happy to try to fix it. Thanks for your help.
