To take advantage of search engines (e.g. EOL internal, google, bing, yahoo), GloBI will automatically create and update collections using a (not yet existing) EOL Collections API for popular taxa and their diet. \r\n\r\nFor example, for the popular taxon page \"Seals\", a collection will be created that includes a list of all prey items of predator taxa belonging to the true seals (Phocidae) family. The description of the collection includes text like: \"What do seals eat\", \"Seal food\", \"Seal diet\" or any other phrase that is commonly used to look up the what a seal eats using a search engine.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jhpoelen/eol-globi-data/issues/comments/71086595","html_url":"https://github.com/jhpoelen/eol-globi-data/issues/80#issuecomment-71086595","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jhpoelen/eol-globi-data/issues/80","id":71086595,"user":{"login":"jhammock","id":3026567,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/3026567?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/jhammock","html_url":"https://github.com/jhammock","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jhammock/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jhammock/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jhammock/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jhammock/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jhammock/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jhammock/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jhammock/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jhammock/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jhammock/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-01-22T19:52:27Z","updated_at":"2015-01-22T19:52:27Z","body":"Hi, all! I created a collection to represent what our immediate use case (GloBI II, checklist generator) for the collections write api would be: http://eol.org/collections/113457  (seal food!) These needs are pretty modest, no annotations, no order, no objects other than taxa. It does have a collection description. I remember asking for a collection metadata field that could be invisible, but looking at it now I don't really need to hide the description text. It's kind of nice/descriptive. I tried searching for it too, and a pleasing array of substrings fetch this collection pretty well. \r\n\r\nJeremy, are you comfortable firming up instructions for what you'd like us to feed the write API? What do you think of imitating the API output? (http://eol.org/api/collections/1.0/113457.json?page=1&per_page=300) \r\n\r\nThanks!\r\n\r\nJen\r\n"}}
