This page lists some best practices for generating DOIs with Zenodo for code, benchmarks, plugins, prm etc. files that are related to ASPECT.
The document is based on the deal.II DOI best practices.
To create a new entry at https://zenodo.org:
- Upload all files e.g. code, CMakeLists, txt, prm, etc.
- Include a
README.mdfile, which will be prominently displayed in the citation. This allows you to link to other material and provide instructions and additional citations. It is recommended to have a short "what is this" section.
Once Published, you cannot add or delete files but you will be able to edit the metadata.
- Add it to the Computational Infrastructure for Geodynamics community.
- Select Upload type "Software"
- Fill in the required metadata. We strongly recommend providing Keywords, Version, and Funding source.
- Select a License. You probably want "open access" and "LGPL 2.1" (this is necessary if you built on existing ASPECT code)
- Create Related/alternate identifiers for your papers. Add "github.com/geodynamics/aspect" "has this upload as part" if your contribution is also part of ASPECT. Add the DOI of the specific version of ASPECT your files were used with.
