Re: [Dspace-tech] how to publish the internal URL of DSpace Items

2010-09-30 Thread Vinit
Hi all, I think I did not make my question clear. I want to get the internal URL generated by DSpace for an item to publish it on item-display page with some extra attributes. The internal URLs usually end by file extension whereas the persistent URLs won't. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello Marvin, did you try to load the registry after the fresh installation? You can do this by executing: [dspace]/bin/dsrun org.dspace.administer.RegistryLoader -bitstream [dspace]/config/registries/bitstream-formats.xml where [dspace] is your installation directory. Hope that helps Claudia

Tim, Thanks for your reply. I guess what I'm looking for is the xsl within the dri2xhml.xsl file that handles the rendering of the page used when the user confirms he wants to withdraw an item. I see the code that displays the header and the footer for that page, but I don't see the part

Hi Jose, Actually, that's exactly my point. There is not a single template that renders the entire middle of the page. It's rendered by several templates working together. So, if you take a look closely, the middle part of the page is a giant table (with class=ds-table). If you dig into

I commented out load_registries from the build.xml and ant builds. The logs in /dspace/log/ were owned by root, and rw only for root. I chmod to 777 on all. Then ran build, followed by your suggestion to run the registry loader via dsrun. It looks like the same error. Changes to build.xml:

Unfortunately, I think this is a serious weakness of Manakin. It's realtively easy to change the header, the footer, and the display of metadata (collections, communities, items). But if you need to change anything else, you're in for a world of hurt. The way dri2xhtml renders the interface

Hi Dave, Feedback (whether positive or critical) is always welcome! Though, obviously, it is even more helpful if we can better understand what is difficult and perhaps even how it could be improved upon or changed. Obviously, you mentioned the dri2xhtml being confusing and other systems

I think one of the real challenges people run into with Manakin's templating is that there is no direct corollary between specific pages and individual templates or template files. Templates apply all over the site to an array of pages. You can't say oh, i'm in submission, i'll go edit

I think Sands hits the problem on the head: The way virtually every other interface templating system works, each page in the system corresponds to an individual template or file. If I want to make a change to my DSpace home page, I should be able to easily find and edit a home page template.

So, wrapping up this long-winded criticism -- you did say this was okay right, Tim? ;-) -- I don't think it would actually take much to improve Manakin. First, just do away with the DRI schema. Have the aspects Java code simply create XML that is semantically (rather than presentationally)

Re: [Dspace-tech] manikin question

2010-09-30 Thread Walker, David
The root of the problem, IMO, is that Manakin takes a fundamentally wrong approach to XSLT. The way Manakin works now, it generates XML that is already *presentational* in its orientation. The DRI schema includes elements that are, for all intents and purposes, layers, paragraphs, lists, and
