Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Python ArchivesSpace scripting library

[Jason Loeffler]

Don't want to add any overhead to this but at one point late last year I
recall a proposal from Max Eckard, Esmé, Sally V., et al. for an Awesome
-style list to house these kinds
of projects. Establishing such a list and collecting the prior art there
might be a good way to help set both projects in motion.

And +1, I can contribute.

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Container Profiles and the Extent/Space Calculators

[Michelson, Daniel]

Hi All,

I have a couple questions about implementing container profiles.

Is there a way to get the extent calculator to report size in cubic
measurements, instead of linear?  I assume it has to do those calculations
in the space calculator, but the fact that "Extent Dimension" is a required
field makes me wonder if it was designed assuming the use of linear
measurements in extents.

How are people handling the space calculator's need for exterior
measurements with the common practice of providing collection extents based
on interior measurements?  Are people just not using the extent calculator?

Thanks,

Dan Michelson

One thing I think might be useful, especially in planning stages, is collecting 
the “prior art” in one place to look at – because there are a lot of scripts 
people have built around the API, and they probably capture at least a fair bit 
of “what people want to do most with the API.”

So, whenever the github is set up, we should do this.
