Hi Mika,
I don't know what framework / language / environment you want to use
this in, but the SWORD PHP library (http://php.swordapp.org/) contains a
METS packager. It works as follows:
require('packager_mets_swap.php');
// Create a new package with the root and directory of the input files,
and the root and directory of the created package
$package = new PackagerMetsSwap($rootin, $dirin, $rootout, $fileout);
// Add metadata to the package
$package->setType($test_type);
$package->setTitle($title);
$package->setAbstract($abstract);
foreach ($creators as $creator) {
$package->addCreator($creator);
}
// Add a file to the package
$package->addFile($filename, $mimetype);
// Now deposit the package
require("swordappclient.php");
$sac = new SWORDAPPClient();
$dr = $sac->deposit($depositurl, $username, $password, $onbehalfof,
$filename, $packageformat, $pacakgecontenttype);
I've been thinking of writing a web service front end to this, to make a
packaging service (POST metadata and files, and it returns a package),
or to make a deposit proxy service (POST metadata and files, SWORD
deposit target and authentication details, and it will make the package
and deposit it). If you think this might be a useful service, get in
touch.
Thanks,

Subject: [Dspace-tech] Producing mets.xml for SWORD
Im hoping to use SWORD in order to deposit items to DSpace. What would
be the best way to produce mets-metadata for the items to be
submitted? Should I write the entire metadata file myself or is there
templates / frameworks available for this?
Thanks,
Mika
