Mark:

Yes, I think structure-builder is guilty as charged on all counts, just wanted 
to make sure you were aware of it.

Oops - make that 3. It would be handy to export an existing structure.

Richard - yup, I am using structure-builder. I might be wrong, but I think it 
has two shortcomings:

1) It won't allow you to build a structure under an existing collection. I am 
having to build a top-level community, and then use community-filiator to move 
it under where I want.

and

2) It won't let you build a collection by itself. It would be handy (for me 
anyway) to make an structure xml file of just a collection and then use a 
command to slot it under an existing community.

Like I posted before, I am able to use an empty METS package file (a zip with 
just mets.xml in it) and by using the packager command, I can create an empty 
collection under where I want it to go. It's a few extra steps, but it works. 
However, I have not found a way to script the creation of a sub-community 
without having to move it after it's creation.

Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark:

Have you looked at StructBuilder, command-line tool used to create Communities 
& Collections from XML files:

Not sure if this fits your needs, but might be worth examining,

Hope this helps,

Folks -

I need a way to create an empty collection from the command line. We are 
automating the ingestion of newspaper PDF's and the structure-build command 
will allow me to do everything I need except create a collection by itself in a 
separate step. The community that the collection belongs to will already be 
established.

I'm using Dspace 3.0 on Ubuntu 12.10 server.

Any ideas?

Thanks again!
