COUNTER API (sushi) server for R5.1

01 July 2024

The Celus team have updated their demo COUNTER API (sushi) server to support Release 5.1 of the COUNTER Code of Practice. They use the tool internally for testing purposes, but are generously making it available to the COUNTER community.

You can find it running at https://sashimi.celus.net/

The sources and some basic information, including a list of limitations, is available from their GitHub repository. The test server will let you request sample Release 5.1 reports using the standard URL extensions. That means

The Database Report can be called from https://sashimi.celus.net/r51/reports/dr.
The Title Report can be called from https://sashimi.celus.net/r51/reports/tr.
The Platform and Item Reports are not supported for the time being.

The Celus team have only just finished the work to develop the demo server, and have said that there may be some bugs; if you come across any issues please get in touch with Beda Kosata.
