DBRepo API (research database repository)

A DBRepo deployment run by the Universitaets- und Landesbibliothek for publishing and querying research databases. Hosted on the institution's own infrastructure — dbrepo.ulb.tu-darmstadt.de is a CNAME to fidbau.ulb.tu-darmstadt.de at 130.83.245.233, inside TU Darmstadt's own address space, not a vendor's. Verified live 2026-09-01: GET /api/v1/database returns 200 with a JSON array of database records, and GET /api/v1/license returns 200 with a licence vocabulary; the backend answers with application/problem+json on unknown paths. The web tier is a Nuxt SPA. DBRepo the software is a third-party product, so its generic OpenAPI is deliberately not saved under this institution — the deployment is what belongs here. Registered with DataCite as client hlqc.covcod.
