Hi Phil:
You would not have to rebuild at all, since the DayTable code is already
included in the base DSpace. It is a simple reconfiguration:
(1) Change the setter property in dspace.cfg:
plugin.single.org.dspace.embargo.EmbargoSetter =
org.dspace.embargo.DefaultEmbargoSetter
Change the value on the right to:
org.dspace.embargo.DayTableEmbargoSetter
(2) Add a new property in dspace.cfg, which will define the table of values:
embargo.terms.days = my first terms:90, my second terms: 180
where you can put any language you want for 'my first terms', which will be
interpreted by the embargo code as equal to the number of days after the ':'
(30, 60, 365, etc any thing you want).
You can define any number of terms.
(3) If you are using the web submission for ingesting content (as opposed to
SWORD, batch etc), and you want the submitter to be able to choose from a
drop-down list of embargo terms,
then you will also need to enable that in input_forms.xml. This roughly means
defining a new 'value-pairs' element where the terms are the left, and the # of
days are the right. See documentation
on configurable submission.
As to writing your own, you would need to describe what you want to accomplish
in a little more detail before I could advise - you may only need a setter, not
a lifer, etc
Hope this helps,
Richard R

We are running Dspace 1.7.2 and using the DefaultEmbargoSetter and
DefaultEmbargoLifter, how looking at the source it seems that the
DayTableEmbargoSetter is more what we are looking for. I'm curious if anyone
has experience using this and can provide some rough instructions on setting up
the DayTableEmbargoSetter? Would I have to rebuild my dspace instance?
Can someone explain how I would go about writing custom embargo setter and
lifter classes and deploying them to my instance?
Thanks,
Phil
