-----------------------------------
Summary: Concatenate values of multi-value fields in item display
Key: DS-1228
URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1228
Project: DSpace
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: JSPUI
Environment: DSpace 1.8.2
Reporter: Kostas Stamatis
Attachments: concatvalues-patch.diff, README.txt
This proposed extension (implemented by National Documentation Centre/EKT -
http://www.ekt.gr) permits in JSPUI and item display (item tag) to concatenate
the multiple values of a field to one line instead of displaying then each one
in a seperate line.
The configuration is done within dspace.cfg file and the users can select if
they want the concatenation or the default line break, the separation character
or string and the existence of a non-breaking space before the separator.
USEFULNESS
---------------------
Sometimens, some fields (usually subject keywords) contain multiple values in a
large number than makes the item display have a huge height that makes the
record unreadable. Using this extension, you can concatenate the values in one
line and thus gain space from the item display screen.
CONFIGURATION FILES
---------------------------------------
Tag cloud is fully configurable within the default dspace.cfg configuration
file of DSpace. The new configuration options are:
# Customise the DC metadata fields to show in the default simple item view.
#
# The form is <schema
prefix>.<element>[.<qualifier>|.*][(date)|(link)|(nobreakline)], ...
#
# For example:
# dc.title = Dublin Core element 'title' (unqualified)
# dc.title.alternative = DC element 'title', qualifier 'alternative'
# dc.title.* = All fields with Dublin Core element 'title'
# (any or no qualifier)
# dc.identifier.uri(link) = DC identifier.uri, render as a link
# dc.date.issued(date) = DC date.issued, render as a date
# dc.subject(nobreakline) = DC subject.keyword, rendered as separated
values
# (see also webui.itemdisplay.inclusespace and
webui.itemdisplay.separator options)
# "link/date" options can be combined with "nobreakline" option using a
space among them i.e "dc.identifier.uri(link nobreakline)"
#
# If an item has no value for a particular field, it won't be displayed.
# The name of the field for display will be drawn from the current UI
# dictionary, using the key:
#
# "metadata.<style>.<field>" or if undefined the key "metadata.<field>"
#
# e.g. "metadata.default.dc.title" or "metadata.default.dc.title"
# "metadata.dc.contributor.*" or "metadata.default.dc.contributor.*"
# "metadata.dc.date.issued" or "metadata.default.dc.date.issued"
#
#webui.itemdisplay.default = dc.title, dc.title.alternative, dc.contributor.*, \
# dc.subject(link nobreakline),
dc.date.issued(date), dc.publisher, \
# dc.identifier.citation,
dc.relation.ispartofseries, \
# dc.description.abstract, dc.description, \
# dc.identifier.govdoc, dc.identifier.uri(link), \
# dc.identifier.isbn, dc.identifier.issn, \
# dc.identifier.ismn, dc.identifier
#
# If nobreakline option is applied for a field in itemdisplay then the
following options define the separator string
# and if we want a space before the separator
webui.itemdisplay.inclusespace = false
webui.itemdisplay.separator = ;
