# hunting the web for forgotten mirrors/dumps of the mythical "Batvirus" mysql db

- me: @100ideas ([twitter](https://twitter.com/100ideas), [github](https://github.com/100ideas)) 
- this doc: https://hackmd.io/@100ideas/BkfDLbmtd
- [twitter list of D.R.A.S.T.I.C. contributors](https://twitter.com/i/lists/1394818088223219715)
- background on missing db - D.R.A.S.T.I.C. report: ["An Investigation into the WIV Databases that were Taken Offline"](https://drasticresearch.org/2021/02/19/an-investigation-into-the-wiv-databases-that-were-taken-offline/)

## goal: find dump of 61.5MB " batvirus.whiov.ac.cn" mysql db 
(or just fragments / csvs / partial records etc)

1) started by familiarizing myself w/ the Chinese bioninformatic sites & dataset indexes that are still public today (they have gotten a lot more elaborate than what is visible in the historic archives!)
2) also searched for orphaned files and ids in wayback machine, timetravel.mementoweb.org

Not feeling very lucky, but at least here are some notes of various Chinese bioinfo sites.


## want to find the content of this data repository - seems like it is an index of all the other ones?

results: all the links to it and other interesting indexes like pathogenic virus sequence repositories just time out for me. (located in north america)

China ScienceDataBank
- was able to create account w/o hassle

- https://www.scidb.cn/
- **we want the "batvirus" mysql db, doi:10.11922/sciencedb.768**
  - used to be at http://www.sciencedb.cn/dataSet/downloads/768
  - new scidb seems to change url scheme
    - now resources have an opaque "dataSetId" separate from the number at the end of the doi.
    - example:
    - "Checklist of Vascular Plants in Shannan Prefecture":
      - doi: 10.11922/sciencedb.796
      - url: https://www.scidb.cn/en/detail?dataSetId=633694461330718721&language=en_US&dataSetType=journal&code=5c36e22c13f6b34064283d5e
      - download url ends up being: https://www.scidb.cn/api/sdb-statistics-service/download?dataSetId=633694461330718721&dataSetType=journal&size=
  - ** so we need to know the new "dataSetId"



788 -> 633694461322330116 => 6336944613 22330116
768 -> ?????????????????? => 6336944613 ????????
