Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Tim Donohue (tdonohue) Assigned to: Tim Donohue (tdonohue) Summary: DSpace 1.5 XMLUI - Enable METS <amdSec> using crosswalks Initial Comment: By default, the Item-level METS files which the DSpace 1.5.x XMLUI auto-generates contain only descriptive metadata (<dmdSec>), file (<fileSec>) and structure mapping (<structMap>) sections. This patch allows you to also generate the METS administrative metadata (<amdSec>) section, based on the request made. This patch itself doesn't create the administrative metadata. Rather, it provides you a way to utilize DSpace Crosswalks to generate the adminstrative metadata for the <amdSec>. As an example, you can now make requests similar to the following: http://localhost/xmlui/metadata/handle/123456789/1/mets.xml?techMDTypes=PREMIS Notice the "techMDTypes" is specified as "PREMIS". This tells the XMLUI that you want to run the "PREMIS" crosswalk to generate metadata to be placed in the <techMD> subsection of <amdSec>. So, the result would include the following <amdSec>: <mets:amdSec> <mets:techMD> <mets:mdWrap MDTYPE="PREMIS"> <mets:xmlData> [..PREMIS Crosswalk-generated metadata..] </mets:xmlData> </mets:mdWrap> </mets:techMD> </mets:amdSec> By default, normal requests to "metadata/handle/*/*/mets.xml" will NOT generate this <amdSec> section. This ensures that the default METS files are still kept small. However, this ability to request administrative metadata now allows more flexibility to XMLUI Themes. It also opens up more opportunities for Crosswalks which generate administrative metadata. Finally, it also begins to allow one to utilize the XMLUI as a "pseudo-Web-Service" interface for dissemination of Item-level METS representations (including administrative metadata) The attached patch was built against the latest DSpace 1.5.x branch (as of 30-Dec-2008). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=319984&aid=2477820&group_id=19984 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Dspace-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-devel
