The REST API is enabled by default. You can try the different queries discribed under https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/FEDORA35/REST+API. > I used the tutorial to create objects and put them in Fedora, > but how do I get them out when I need them? Use the REST API (Metadata) or if you have a data stream like a pdf you can access it via link. > Is there a way to assign PIDs automatically?

Is up to you to organize the links between the objects using RELS-EXT (see https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/FEDORA36/Digital+Object+Relationships) > I have many more questions....which is why I am looking for some very > basic instructions on setting up a repository.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. It will takes some time to understand how all works together. I would suggest you to use your own configuration and like we did, so you will get more familar with fedora. For example: Installation type: custom Fedora home directory: /opt/fedora Fedora administrator password: <password> Fedora server host: localhost Fedora application server context: fedora Upstream Auth: false Authentication requirement for API-A: true SSL availability: false Servlet engine: existingTomcat Tomcat home directory: /usr/share/tomcat6 Tomcat HTTP port: 8080 Tomcat shutdown port: 8005 Database: postgresql Postgresql JDBC driver: /usr/share/java/postgresql-jdbc.jar Database username: fedora Database password: <Passwort> JDBC URL: jdbc:postgresql://localhost/fedora JDBC DriverClass: org.postgresql.Driver Enable FeSL AuthN: true Enable FeSL AuthZ (Experimental Feature): false Policy enforcement enabled: false Low Level Storage: akubra-fs Enable Resource Index: true Enable Messaging: true Messaging Provider URI: vm:(broker:(tcp://localhost:61616)) Deploy local services and demos: true (Produktionsmaschine: false) After this you can try different add ons, like solr and gsearch.
