Hardy, Here's the task:
http://github.com/awead/rocklight/blob/master/lib/tasks/fedora.rake I just threw up the project on git, so there's not much explanation of anything. It's very much a work-in-progress. It uses blacklight, an ead plugin that Jason Ronallo wrote, and a bunch of active-fedora/hydrangea code. The image ingest process is designed to attach an image pid to an existing pid in fedora that is the archival collection. I've been only testing this, so right now it ingests some jpg files and uses image magick to resize them into a thumbnail and access version. In "real life" the preservation stream would be tiff and the thumbnail and access version would be jpegs. I also threw in a jhove datastream for fun, but I'm not doing anything with it at this point other than just storing it. The three descriptive medata streams are from the active-fedora model. Ideally, we'd use a mods schema for all the descriptive data instead of these three different ones, but that'll be the next step. let me know if you have comments or questions. Again, it's a work-in-progress. I only started coding in Ruby/rails a couple of months ago, so there might be some quirky things to it. ...adam -----Original Message----- From: Code for Libraries on behalf of Pottinger, Hardy J.

Well, this may come as no surprise :-) but I for one would love to see that rake task for image ingest. --Hardy Rock & Roll: (noun) African American slang dating back to the early 20th Century.
