ChoiceAuthority plugin for old-style controlled vocabularies
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DS-699
URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-699
Project: DSpace 1.x
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: DSpace API
Affects Versions: 1.6.2
Reporter: Michael B. Klein
Attachments: DSpaceControlledVocabulary.java
Since XMLUI is lacking support for the JSPUI controlled vocabulary browser, I
implemented a self-named plugin that publishes a ChoiceAuthority plugin for
each file in ${dspace.dir}/controlled-vocabularies. The plugin has the same
name as the basename of the file; e.g., controlled-vocabularies/srsc.xml is
published as "srsc". Each node of the vocabulary's hierarchy is then available
as an auto-completable term for that plugin/authority.
To activate the plugin, add the following to dspace.cfg:
plugin.selfnamed.org.dspace.content.authority.ChoiceAuthority =
org.dspace.content.authority.DSpaceControlledVocabulary
Then, to attach the Research Subject Categories vocabulary to the dc.subject
field:
choices.plugin.dc.subject = srsc
choices.presentation.dc.subject = suggest
Since the ChoiceAuthority plugin system binds a vocabulary to a particular
metadata field system-wide, instead of making it configurable per collection
(as the old controlled vocabulary system does), you'll need to either make sure
that you really want it to be a global authority, or create a
vocabulary-specific metadata field and use it instead.
