Signposting links for a listing or overview page

Listing pages are not scholarly objects, so they are outside the FAIR Signposting profile and carry no `cite-as`. They do get the same vocabulary of typed links, which is what makes the register's JSON and CSV exports discoverable from the HTML rather than only from the documentation.

Usage

generate_list_signposting(
  is_main_register = FALSE,
  has_register_files = TRUE,
  has_index_json = FALSE
)

Arguments

is_main_register

Whether this is the unfiltered register page, which is the only one with the full CSV and JSON exports next to it

has_register_files

Whether `register.json` and `register.md` sit next to the page; false for the overview pages that only list subpages

has_index_json

Whether `index.json` sits next to the page, which is the case for the overview pages but not for the main register page

Value

HTML string of `<link>` elements, one per line

Details

They deliberately carry no `item` links to their member certificates: `item` means a content resource of the described object - on a certificate page, the PDF - and reusing it for list membership would make those links ambiguous. Enumerating members is what a Level 2 link set is for, which GitHub Pages cannot serve conformantly, see signposting_link_tags.
