Chalmers Open Digital Repository (ODR) REST API

HAL+JSON REST API of the Chalmers Open Digital Repository, a DSpace 8.3 instance Chalmers runs on its own host (odr.chalmers.se). The API root and the communities collection answer publicly; item listing requires authentication. The deployment and the content are Chalmers'; the API contract itself is DSpace's open-source software contract, so no generic DSpace specification is stored here under Chalmers' name.
