Re: [dspace-tech] assign dc.autor = eperson.lastname in submission step

[Andrea Schweer]

Hi, I think it's as easy as this (5.x code, you may need to adjust for 6.x): public class SubmitterAsAuthor extends AbstractProcessingStep { @Override public int doProcessing(Context context, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, SubmissionInfo subInfo) throws ServletException, IOException, SQLException, AuthorizeException { EPerson submitter = context.getCurrentUser(); String name = submitter.getLastName() + ", " + submitter.getFirstName(); Item item = subInfo.getSubmissionItem().getItem(); item.addMetadata("dc", "contributor", "author", null, name); item.update(); } @Override public int getNumberOfPages(HttpServletRequest request, SubmissionInfo subInfo) throws ServletException { return 1; } } But no promises that will work! cheers, Andrea On 08/09/2017 02:53 AM, Francisco wrote: sorry im working with dspace6 xmlui mirage2  El martes, 8 de agosto de 2017, 11:33:03 (UTC-3), Francisco escribió: Thanks Andrea for responding (and fast) I would need some example of how to reference the current user within java code to make assignments to the dc.author or dc.publisher element THANK YOU VERY MUCH AGAIN  ;) El martes, 8 de agosto de 2017, 0:06:32 (UTC-3), Andrea Schweer escribió: Hi, On 08/08/2017 01:55 PM, Francisco wrote: > want to automatic assign in current submission step > dc.autor take the value of current user (eperson.lastname + > eperson.firstname) > without ask I'd recommend creating a custom non-interactive submission step that does this work. You don't say what version of DSpace you're working with; here's the documentation for version 6.x: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Submission+User+Interface#SubmissionUserInterface-CreatingaNon-InteractiveStep https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Submission+User+Interface#SubmissionUserInterface-UnderstandingtheSubmissionConfigurationFile and https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Submission+User+Interface#SubmissionUserInterface-Reordering/Removing/AddingSubmissionSteps tell you how to activate your custom step. You'd presumably want yours right after the initial questions step. cheers, Andrea -- Dr Andrea Schweer Lead Software Developer, ITS Information Systems The University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand +64-7-837 9120 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DSpace Technical Support" group.
