Get DOI for pyDataverse about pydataverse

[pdurbin]

https://guides.github.com/activities/citable-code/ leads you to Zenodo but you could deposit your code into Dataverse and get a DOI from Dataverse. You could deposit it into https://dataverse.harvard.edu for example.

You can also put a DOI "badge" in your README on the GitHub side that looks something like this:

Here's how I added the badge above:

IQSS/open-source-at-harvard@a701b30

Maybe this is sth. for GDCC/dvcli?

I am about to ramp up development for this tool for CI usage of deploying research software to Dataverse. This would be a great case of dogfooding your own library 😄

BTW recommendation by FORCE11/DataCite is create a new DOI for every release, maybe accompanied by having one DOI always point to the latest release. See here, here and here

Again, great. :)

My strategy so far is to create one for each major release. Maybe thats not best, cause I dont know, when the v1.0 will be ever released. and the minor releases so far have quite big changes in it.

So, @poikilotherm, what do you think? One for each minor version change, or stick to the principle of only major releases? Maybe another way could be to make the next release the 1.0 one. am a bit hesitant, cause on other libraries I watch, they are too. And its still a huge way to go to be really production ready, tested, mature code (e.g. API module testing).

will create one DOI for the 0.x.x versions to begin with.

Done.
