Obtain curation data in JSON format

Single version

To obtain curation data of a single version of a software package in JSON format, the following REST call may be used: http://www.osselot.org:3262/json/<package>/<version> such as in a wget command

wget -qO - http://www.osselot.org:3262/json/angular/15.2.2

All available versions of a software package

The command to obtain JSON formatted data of all available versions of a software package is very similar to the above except that the "version" part is not given such as

wget -qO - http://wwww.osselot.org:3262/json/angular

Format JSON file in browser

If your browser supports display of JSON data either natively or after having installed an appropriate extension, you may immediately browse to the JSON data such as angular version 15.2.2 or even all curated versions of angular.

(Please note that the above browser commands, particularly the second, may take a long time to render.)
