Batch Import
------------

                 Key: DS-160
                 URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-160
             Project: DSpace 1.x
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Charles Kiplagat


The commonest use-case for the batch import mechanism is receipt of a great 
many items at once. HTML items are another use-case. Most chatters had written 
custom code (outside DSpace altogether) to make batch-importing easier. It was 
suggested that a DSpace-blessed way to share, discover, and reuse some of this 
code would be helpful, as would translators from common metadata formats such 
as MARC and MODS to a format compatible with SWORD-based deposit. It might be 
possible to distribute third-party code in /contrib, which by convention does 
not warrant any particular code quality. Other suggestions: a validator (or 
better error-handling) for batch imports; the -t flag does not catch many 
metadata errors, which can cause a batch import to die in the middle. a web 
interface to handle batch imports
