Elena 12.2 7 The scope of this section is to describe the support in the metamodel for specifying both the access to and the content of a [[data source>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data source.WebHome]]. The information may be stored in a resource such as a registry for use by applications wishing to locate data and metadata which is available via the Internet. The [[Constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] is also used to specify a sub set of a Codelist which may used as a partial [[code list>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code list.WebHome]] which is relevant in the context of the [[artefact>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Artefact.WebHome]] to which the [[Constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] is attached e.g. [[Data Structure Definition>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]], [[Dataflow>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dataflow.WebHome]], Provision Agreement.
Helena 2.1 8
Helena 10.1 9 Note that in this metamodel the term [[data source>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data source.WebHome]] refers to both data and metadata sources, and [[data provider>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data provider.WebHome]] refers to both data and metadata providers.
Helena 2.1 10
Helena 10.1 11 A [[data source>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data source.WebHome]] may be a simple file of data or metadata (in [[SDMX-ML>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.SDMX-ML.WebHome]] format), or a database or [[metadata repository>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Metadata repository.WebHome]]. A [[data source>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data source.WebHome]] may contain data for many data or [[metadataflows>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Metadataflow.WebHome]] (called DataflowDefinition, and MetadataflowDefinition in the model), and the mechanisms described in this section allow an organisation to specify precisely the scope of the content of the [[data source>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data source.WebHome]] where this [[data source>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data source.WebHome]] is registered (SimpleDataSource, QueryDataSource).
Helena 2.1 12
13 The DataflowDefinition and MetadataflowDefinition, themselves may be specified as containing only a sub set of all the possible keys that could be derived from a DataStructureDefinition or MetadataStructureDefinition.
14
Elena 12.2 15 These specifications are called //[[Constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]]// in this model.

28
Elena 12.2 29 Any [[artefact>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Artefact.WebHome]] that is derived from //ConstrainableArtefact// can have [[constraints>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] defined. The [[artefacts>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Artefact.WebHome]] that can have [[constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] metadata attached are:
Helena 2.1 30
31 * DataflowDefinition
32 * ProvisionAgreement
Helena 10.1 33 * DataProvider – this is restricted to [[release calendar>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Release policy - release calendar.WebHome]]
Helena 2.1 34 * MetadataflowDefinition
35 * DataStructureDefinition
36 * MetadataStructureDefinition
Helena 10.1 37 * [[DataSet>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]]
38 * SimpleDataSource – this is a registered [[data source>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data source.WebHome]] where the registration references the actual [[DataSet>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] or MetadataSet
Helena 2.1 39 * QueryDataSource
40
Elena 12.2 41 Note that, because the [[Constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] can specify a sub set of the [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] values implied by a specific //Structure// (such a specific DataStructureDefinition or specific MetadataStructureDefinition), the //ConstrainableArtefact//s must be associated with a specific //Structure//. Therefore, whilst the [[Constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] itself may not be linked directly to a DataStructureDefinition or MetadataStructureDefinition, the [[artefact>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Artefact.WebHome]] that it is constraining will be linked to a DataStructureDefinition or MetadataStructureDefinition. As a [[Data Provider>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data provider.WebHome]] does not link to any one specific [[DSD>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]] or [[MSD>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Metadata structure definition.WebHome]] the type of information that can be contained in a [[Constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] linked to a DataProvider is restricted to [[Release Calendar>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Release policy - release calendar.WebHome]].

53 ==== 10.3.2.1 Narrative ====
54
Elena 12.2 55 The constraint mechanism allows specific [[constraints>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] to be attached to a //ConstrainableArtefact//. With the exception of ReferencePeriod, and ReleaseCalendar these [[constraints>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] specify a sub set of the total set of values or keys that may be present in any of the ConstrainableArtefacts.
Helena 2.1 56
Elena 12.2 57 For instance a DataStructureDefinition specifies, for each [[Dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]], the list of allowable [[code>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code.WebHome]] values. However, a specific DataflowDefinition that uses the DataStructureDefinition may contain only a sub set of the possible range of keys that is theoretically possible from the DataStructureDefinition definition (the total range of possibilities is sometimes called the Cartesian product of the [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]] values). In addition to this, a DataProvider that is capable of supplying data according to the DataflowDefinition has a ProvisionAgreement, and the DataProvider may also wish to supply [[constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] information which may further constrain the range of possibilities in order to describe the data that the provider can supply. It may also be useful to describe the content of a datasource in terms of the KeySets or CubeRegions contained within it.
Helena 2.1 58
Elena 12.2 59 A //ConstrainableArtefact// can have two types of //[[Constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]]//:
Helena 2.1 60
Elena 12.2 61 1. ContentConstraint – is used solely as a mechanism to specify either the available set of keys (DataKeySet, MetadataKeySet) or set of [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] values (CubeRegion, MetadatTargetRegion) in a //DataSource// such as a [[DataSet>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] or a database (//QueryDatasource//), or the allowable keys that can be constructed from a DataStructureDefinition. Multiple such [[constraints>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] may be present for a //ConstrainableArtefact//. For instance, there may be a ContentConstraint that specifies the values allowed for the //ConstrainableArtefact //(role is allowableContent) which can be used for validation or for constructing a partial [[code list>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code list.WebHome]], whilst another [[constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] can specify the actual content of a data or metadata source (role is actualContent).
Helena 10.1 62 1. AttachmentConstraint – is used as a mechanism to define slices of the full set of data and to which metadata can be attached in a [[Data Set>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] or MetadataSet. These slices can be defined either as a set of keys (KeySet) or a set of [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] values (CubeRegion). There can be many AttachmentConstraints specified for a specific AttachableArtefact.
Helena 2.1 63
Elena 12.2 64 In addition to (DataKeySet, MetadataKeySet, CubeRegion, MetadataTargetRegion, a [[Constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] can have a ReferencePeriod defining one of more date ranges (ValidityPeriod) specifying the [[time period>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Time period.WebHome]] for which data or metadata are available in the //ConstrainableArtefact// and a ReleaseCalendar specifying when data are released for publication or reporting.

76 ==== 10.3.3.1 Explanation of the Diagram ====
77
Elena 12.2 78 A //[[Constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]]// is a //MaintainableArtefact//.
Helena 2.1 79
Elena 12.2 80 A //[[Constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]]// has a choice of two ways of specifying value sub sets:
Helena 2.1 81
Helena 10.1 82 1. As a set of keys that can be present in the [[DataSet>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] (DataKeySet) or MetadataSet (MetadataKeySet). Each DataKey or MetadataKey specifies a number of ComponentValues each of which reference a //[[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]// (e.g. [[Dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]], TargetObject). Each ComponentValue is a value that may be present for a //[[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]// of a structure when contained in a [[DataSet>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]] or MetadataSet. The MetadataKeySet must also identify the MetadataTarget as there can be many of each of these in a MetadataStructureDefinition. For the DataKeySet the equivalent identification is not necessary as there is only one DimensionDescriptor and one AttributeDescriptor.
83 1. As a set of CubeRegions or MetadataTaregetRegions each of which defines a “slice” of the total structure (MemberSelection) in terms of one or more MemberValues that may be present for a //[[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]// of a structure when contained in a //[[DataSet>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]]// or MetadataSet.
Helena 2.1 84
Elena 12.2 85 The difference between (1) and (2) above is that in (1) a complete key is defined whereas in (2) above the “slice” defines a list of possible values for each of the// [[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]//s but does not specify specific key combinations. In addition, in (1) the association between //[[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]// and DataKeyValue or MetadataKeyValue is constrained to the [[components>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] that comprise the key or identifier, whereas in (2) it can contain other [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] types (such as [[attributes>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]]). The value in ComponentValue.value and MemberValue.value must be consistent with the //[[Representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]]// declared for the //[[Component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]]// in the DataStructureDefinition or MetadataStructureDefinition. Note that in all cases the “operator” on the value is deemed to be “equals”. Furthermore, it is possible in a MemberValue to specify that child values (e.g. child [[codes>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code.WebHome]]) are included in the [[constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] by means of the cascadeValues [[attribute>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]].
Helena 2.1 86
Elena 12.2 87 It is possible to define for the DataKeySet, DataKey, MetadataKeySet, MetadataKey, CubeRegion, MetadataTargetRegion, and MemberSelection whether the set is included (isIncluded = “true”) or excluded (isIncluded = ”false”) from the [[constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] definition. This [[attribute>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]] is useful if, for example, only a small sub-set of the possible values are not included in the set, then this smaller sub-set can be defined and excluded from the [[constraint>>doc:Glossary.Constraint.WebHome]] . Note that if the child construct is “included: and the parent construct is “excluded” then the child construct is included in the list of constructs that are “excluded”.
