Features: * Possibility to perform multiple queries in one single web service call. * Standardised and structured error messages. Examples : * Base scientific name search : * {{{./name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alba} /{datasource-name}/name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alba}} * Complete scientific name search : * {{{./name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alba Mill.&type=title} /{datasource-name}/name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alba Mill.&type=title}} * Multiple queries : * {{{./name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alba&query=Manihot esculenta} /{datasource-name}/name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alba&query=Manihot esculenta}} * {{{./name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alba Mill.&query=Manihot esculenta Crantz&type=title} /{datasource-name}/name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alba Mill.&query=Manihot esculenta Crantz&type=title}} * Errors : * {{{./name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alb} /{datasource-name}/name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alb}} * {{{./name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alba&query=Manihot escenta} /{datasource-name}/name_catalogue.json?query=Abies Alba&query=Manihot escenta}}
