Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] RAM for ArchivesSpace server

Agreed. We have 5GB for ArchivesSpace but we rarely touch even close to that except for really big jobs like generating PDFs of some of our massive finding aids (1k+ pages). We have 4 processors available but, again, with a lot of breathing room. That stated, we don't use the PUI. On Tue, Sep 29,

That's more than enough for any site. 1/2 that is more than enough for most sites. (I'm assuming Linux, not Windows) If you're having problems with crashes with that much power behind your site, there might be something wrong. From:

Hi all! Will those who maintain your own on-site instance of ArchivesSpace share the memory specifications of your server? Ours is: 16 GB ram, 11 GB assigned to AS. 6 cores (processors) My very best, Jessika *Jessika Drmacich * *Records Manager & Digital Resources Archivist * *Williams

Steve, all: It looks like it does cause an issue for the PUI PDFs, as well, at least with an example that I just tested thanks to Maura Carbone, who provided a sample bit of text to try (hi, Maura!). See: http://test.archivesspace.org/repositories/2/archival_objects/3909. When I tried the

Yes, a sample would be useful to try to reproduce the issue. It would also be interesting to know if both the staff PDF export and the PUI PDF show the same problems. — Steve M. > On Sep 29, 2020, at 11:42 AM, Custer, Mark wrote: > > Dear Hitomi Matsuyama, > > Which version of

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] ArchivesSpace RESTful API authentication and access

2020-09-29 Thread Joshua D. Shaw
David is totally correct. Not related to the public user at all as I had initially speculated. I wonder why some of the get endpoints never got specific permissions? At a minimum I think they should all be 'view_repository' but that might have some other consequences downstream. Joshua

I was able to find the endpoints in the list by searching for ".permissions([])", for example in archivesspace/backend/app/controllers/agent_family.rb: Endpoint.get('/agents/families') .description("List all family agents") .params() .paginated(true) .permissions([])

I think this is an unintended consequence of the PUI. In https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/model/group.rb there is a PUBLIC_GROUP_CODE which is name 'publicanonymous' which is granted view_repository rights - presumably so that the PUI can function. I'm

I'm curious if this has always been the case, as well, but it would seem like it has been. I knew that the repository and location endpoints could be accessed but didn't try any of the rest for some inexplicable reason. Not good to have agent contact details available that way. Given which

That's a *very* interesting find! I had naively believed the docs that indicated that most of the endpoints required authentication without actually trying to bounce off a random endpoint without a token. The controllers indicate that there should be permissions involved and that they should

Dear Hitomi Matsuyama, Which version of ArchivesSpace are you using? I'm not familiar with those configuratio settings, but I suspect that they might just be for the PDF formats of the Reports, not for the PDF format of the EAD conversion process. On newer releases of ArchivesSpace, the

I've been investigating providing access to the ArchivesSpace RESTful API to an expanded group of users. Through testing, it appears that many of the RESTful API endpoints (see below) do not require user authentication (i.e., do not require a "session" key), and access apparently cannot be
