Summary
This PR makes SynBioHub's Explorer integration explicitly configurable and testable against both SBOLExplorer and compatible search backends.
/search/I0462HTML against the established SynBioHub snapshot.SBH_DOCKER_DIR, so the SynBioHub changes can be evaluated against an unmergedsynbiohub-dockercheckout.Compatibility
Normal SynBioHub behavior is unchanged unless the new environment overrides are supplied. Explorer fallback remains enabled by default, while the test harness uses explicit backend selections so an unavailable Explorer cannot be mistaken for a passing result.
The Explorer-enabled test rows are opt-in and use the companion
synbiohub-dockertopology changes.Testing
The GitHub Integration testing workflow passes for this branch.
The conformance runner and report-comparison unit tests pass:
