Hello Alvin,

glad to have been of use.
Actually it is documented here:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/Updating+Items+via+Simple+Archive+Format
With a section about the DSpace Simple Archive Format, linking back to
the detailed information about SAF.
That should be sufficient, but feel free to look with a fresh eye on it
and correct it.

Cheeers

Many thanks, Claudia. That worked as predicted.

I have lurked been on the various Dspace lists and groups for 10 years and have 
noticed that you seem to be among the most helpful in the community. Thanks 
again.

I am happy to update the Dspace wiki or other community documents if this is 
not elaborated somewhere. If I missed it, please tell me but the document I was 
working from did not mention the requirement to have the Dublin_core.xml and 
the contents files.

Subject: Re: [dspace-community] Use of Item Update Syntax

Hello Alvin,

in the case of itemupdate the
-i is the metadatafield in which the identifier is located in the 
dublin_core.xml the default is dc.identifier.uri

You need basically the Simple Archive Structure
* Source
** item01
*** dublin_core.xml
*** contents
*** YourFile.foo

The dublin_core.xml might just contain the dc.identifier.uri, e.g:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<dublin_core schema="dc">
    <dcvalue element="identifier"
qualifier="uri">YourIdentiferURIOfTheItem</dcvalue>
</dublin_core>

The contents just:
YourFile.foo
Will be added automatically to the bundle ORIGINAL

The command would be

[dspace]/bin/dspace itemupdate -e [userEmail] -s /pathtotheSourceDirectory -A


Hope this helps

Hello.

We are using Dspace version 5 and I am trying to add a rather large (> 20GB) 
bitstream to an existing item.

The webui fails due to time-out and other problems so I thought I
would use the command line as described here:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/Updating+Items+via+Simple+A
rchive+Format


However, when I run this command:

[dspace]/bin/dspace itemupdate -e [userEmail] -s [location of the file
to upload] -A -i [identifier for the item in the repository]


I get the following response:

Add bitstreams
Actions to be performed:
      org.dspace.app.itemupdate.AddBitstreamsAction
ItemUpdate - initializing run on Thu May 17 15:08:19 EDT 2018

Done processing.  Successful items: 0 of 0 items in source archive

End.


Does anyone know whether the location of the file to upload (identified by the 
–s switch) requires a Dublin_core.xml file and/or a contents file to be present 
as well as the bitstream itself?

I am not altering the metadata but simply adding a file to the item.

Any other tips on using itemupdate from the command line for adding a single 
file?

Thanks in advance

Alvin
