Hello Austin and Andrea,

I’m going to put a tech support ticket in for you on this. (You’ll see another 
message about that directly to you in a minute.) The tech folks should be able 
to help you through the process of using the Archon migration tool. Once you 
get it worked out, it’d be great if you’d share the solution back to the 
listserv.

Edgar,

I am assisting Andrea on this process. The credentials do indeed belong to an 
account with administrative permissions for this Archon instance, and are 
valid/correct. The link to the Archon source is also valid (we've tried 
variations with protocol and paths just to make sure) as the migration tool 
proceeds with the first bit of authentication after successfully connecting to 
the Archon source, but ultimately fails and presents the error previously 
mentioned.

I managed to nab a copy of the log before it spits out the error almost 
instantly. Here's what it says:

Administrator authenticated ...
Finding Accession Records Repositories ...
Getting records for: ?p=core/accessions_start=1
No accessions found ...

I hope this helps, thank you.

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Lingo Cheat Sheet?

2018-04-09 Thread Kari R Smith
As others have said, examples are helpful, especially when you are moving from 
producing Finding Aids (as in a document with specific formatting) to having to 
put metadata of various types into a data model driven database that can then 
produce a variety of output, including a formatted Finding Aid.

Have people use the ToolTips (roll-over text) that explains what should go into 
any given data field – and make access to the online documentation easy for all 
staff using ASpace. A particular challenge at this stage in the AS application 
development is that the rendering on the staff side isn’t what is expected and 
so the desire to put data into the incorrect fields (but fields that render on 
the screen) is great.

I find that using the VRA Core metadata model is helpful for illustrating the 
ArchivesSpace models of the Resource, Instances, Archival Objects, Containers, 
etc.   I think especially for the Instances, this model is useful.

We have collections where we might have 4 or 5 instance of the same Archival 
Object and I believe that it’s useful to understand that the Archival Object is 
the intellectual idea of an object … the instance is the physical manifestation 
of that Intellectual idea, and the containers are where those instances are 
located.  Multiple instances can be linked at the top (Resource) level of a 
record or at an Archival object level – all depends on your collections.  But 
what is allows for is not having to have a separate Archival Object for each 
physical TYPE of thing, just one Archival Object that has many instances.

For an example:

Resource = Collection of My Best Audio Recordings (1976-1988)

Linked Accession =  Today I received 5 reel to reel tapes of recordings
Linked Accession = last month I received 5 CD-ROMs from reformatting of reels

Archival Object = My favorite performance done using a Theremin
(1) Instance = Reel to Reel recording
   Container – Box 1 with barcode ###
Location = Cold Storage
(2) Instance = CD-ROM with recording from the reel to reel
   Container Box 5 with barcode ###
   Location = storage area A, bay 5, shelf 2
(3) Instance = digital files (pulled from the CD-ROM)
   Container = Theremin_recordings.zip(BagIt package of digital 
files)
   Location = Digital Preservation Storage; Collection_MBAR; 
Accession_#
&

Digital Object = MP3 file of the recording that I put online for Web access.
   Location - Webserver

Thank you all for this feedback! Yes, the data model will probably take getting 
used to, and I can see how some kind of visualization would be useful. As staff 
has come on board to help with the ASpace implementation, I have often included 
some version of 
this
 in very high level overviews of the system. I need to add Archival Objects and 
Instances. And yes, "Instance" took me some getting used to as well. If I had 
more time, I would try to do more screen shots like the second slide in the 
link I'm sharing for more visual learners (such as myself).

I certainly welcome any documentation sharing and when ours in in better shape 
be happy to do the same!

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Configuration question for 2.3.0

2018-04-09 Thread Custer, Mark
All,


To follow up on this thread, and in case it helps anyone else, here's an 
example configuraiton that I just tested since I needed to implement a similar 
configuration and ran into a few issues the first time around:


AppConfig[:pui_hide][:accession_badge] = true

AppConfig[:pui_hide][:classification_badge] = true


AppConfig[:pui_repos]['repo1'] = {}

AppConfig[:pui_repos]['repo2'] = {}

AppConfig[:pui_repos]['repo1'][:hide] = {:accession_badge => false}

AppConfig[:pui_repos]['repo2'][:hide] = {:classification_badge => false}


In this example, I've replaced our actual repository codes with "repo1" and 
"repo2" (and, as Bobbi mentions earlier, if the codes are actually something 
like "Repo1", you'd still need to downcast that to "repo1" in the config file). 
 Let's imagine that we also have repo3, repo4, and repo5 in this system.


Assuming all that, then those first two lines will hide the accession and 
classification badges on all 5 repository homepages in the PUI.


The next 4 lines will set things up so that the repository pages for repo1 and 
repo2 will behave a bitt differently than repos 3-5.  In this case, repo1 will 
include the accession badge, but it will not have the classification badge.  
And repo2 will include the classification badge, but it not include the 
accession badge.


John, hopefully everything worked out for you, but please let us know if not.


Mark

Hi,

Replace {repo_code}  with the lowercased version of your repository code (for 
example, for us, the repository code for Harvard University Archives is ‘hua’)

You have to do it as a hash



AppConfig[:pui_repos] = {'psa' => { :requests_permitted_for_types => 
[:archival_object]} }



Among other things, this now creates an addressable (i.e.: no undefined method 
messages)



AppConfig[:pui_repos][‘psa’]  that you can use for subsequent  things like 
hiding badges, e.g.:

AppConfig[:pui_repos][‘psa’] [‘hide’] = {:subject_badge => false, :agent_badge 
=> false}

What is the proper syntax for modifying the [:pui_repos] config statements?  
The example at 
http://archivesspace.github.io/archivesspace/user/configuring-archivesspace/
 uses an “imaginary repository code of ‘foo’”, but no actual usage of “foo” is 
shown.



AppConfig[:pui_repos][{repo_code}][:requests_permitted_for_types] = 
[:archival_object] #  ...gives the syntax error “unexpected tRCURLY”



AppConfig[:pui_repos][‘PSA’][:requests_permitted_for_types] = 
[:archival_object] #  ...gives the syntax error “NoMethodError: undefined 
method `[]=' for nil:NilClass”(Note: I am not a Ruby expert.)



It appears that the string “{repo_code}” must be replaced by a local repository 
code.  We have 4 repositories in our installation:  General, GA, PSA and UA.



# Repository-specific examples.  We are using the imaginary repository code of 
'foo'.  Note the lower-case

AppConfig[:pui_repos] = {}

# Example:

Hi all,

I always seem to post on Friday afternoons.

Throwing this out to the group because training is of immediate and scary 
concern. One of the things that I am acutely aware of is that our staff is 
going to have to get used to new terminology and fast to be able to use ASpace. 
Lingo is going to be a big barrier to access.

What have been some of your conceptual/terminology roadblocks in terms of staff 
training?

Things I know I will have to explain as new terminology/conceptual reframing 
are included as headers below. I'm laying my work bare here, but I'm thinking 
that the crowdsourcing could be useful here. We've got people at varied levels 
of technical proficiency. I was thinking of an informal cheat sheet.

Did you make a cheat sheet for ASpace lingo for staff training? Am I not 
including some conceptual leaps here? Did you have ASpace terminology you had 
to explain in multiple ways?

Thanks,
Olivia

Agent Record

A record type for a person, family, corporation, or software. A major record 
type in ASpace that can link to Accession Records, Resource Records, Archival 
Object Records, and Event Records in various roles, most often as subjects and 
creators. Every distinct agent has one and only one record.

Archival Object Record

[NOTE we're not using ASpace for digital objects]
A record type for an item in an inventory. If are familiar with EAD, this 
corresponds to a  level. If not, think of this as a tabbed level of an 
inventory.
Child

ArchivesSpace thinks of hierarchical relationships as "parent"/"child". A 
parent could be the  to a child , though ASpace would never frame it 
in terms of specific numbered component levels. A parent could also be the box 
that a child reel/folder/box within the parent box

Classifications
Container Profile

Basically, the type and dimensions of a container. Container profiles are 
consecutively numbered by type. For a description of container types see [this 
link]. For specs/pictures of different container types, see [this link].

Event Record

In DBCAH's implementation, Event Records document specific steps taken in 
archival processing, most comprehensively in Accession Records (e.g. Deeds of 
Gift sent or received). Event Records are bound to specific dates.

Instance
Indicator
Location Profile
Note (resources)
Parent
Resource Record

Essentially a finding aid plus some additional collection management 
information.

Hi Olivia,

I think you have the right idea here. We use a wiki for instructions on
using ArchivesSpace. We were using Archivists' Toolkit prior to AS so some
of these terms were familiar to people. It take a little bit of time to
adjust, but I found that linking these terms to the concepts they already
knew was helpful. Most obvious was that a resource records was AS speak for
finding aid. As Christie said knowing how the records work together helped
as well. I am happy to share some of my wiki documents with you if you like.

Best,

Margaret

In my experience, you may have something wrong with your in-line tags or fonts 
used for text. Or, a date mismatch for restrictions if that is a thing you have 
in those collections.

Hi,

We are having an issue where several pages are available for editing, but do 
not show up in public view. For those pages it displays a "We're sorry, but 
something went wrong." error with a 500 code. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hello,

We are attempting to migrate from Archon Version 3.21 rev-2.1 to ArchivesSpace 
installation V2.3.0 but we are encountering this error. We have followed up to 
step 5c and 5d in the Archon Migration Tool Instructions and were met with the 
following error.

Can anyone help us interpret this error and figure out where to move forward?
