Claudia Jürgen commented on DS-202:
-----------------------------------

Hi Andrea,

the Metadata Generator is intended to generate a meta information for a given 
DSpace object, at the moment item, as metadata is not applicable to other 
objects.

Hooking it into installItem was just to illustrate it's possible use. 

Manipulating other DSpace object is beyond it's scope and should be seperate, 
especially manipulating bitstreams. Nevertheless if in future metadata is 
applicable to any DSpace object,  a metadata generator could be used for other 
objects.

Sunny greetings

Claudia

>             Project: DSpace 1.x
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: DSpace API
>    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
>            Reporter: Claudia Jürgen
>         Attachments: MetadataGeneratorPluginv4.patch
>
>
> At the moment we got the input/import and the template but no possibility to 
> dynamically generate metadata during ingest, which depends on the item or 
> it's owning collection ...
> So if you want to create other identifiers (DOI, URN), fetch  language 
> dependent right statement, use authority files, translate subject terms etc.  
> you got no default way to integrate this with DSpace.
> This patch  is an outline for a metadata generator plugin along with a 
> demonstration of it's possible application. It is intended for discussion not 
> straight application.
> The patch based on trunk rev 3729 adds some new classes to org.dspace.content
> Metadata.java (class representing a metadata, in contrast to a DSpace 
> metadata value)
> MetadataGenerator.java (the interface)
> DemoGenerator.java (a demo implementation)
> and changes the dspace.cfg and org.dspace.content.InstallItem to demonstrate 
> it's possible application. 
> Feel free to add your thoughts and comments.
