I've written an java tool/packager to help build the Simple Archive Format
package described above.
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Simple+Archive+Format+Packager
It basically works by having a spreadsheet with all of the metadata in
columns (including a column for the filename), and each item is a separate
row.
The packager takes in: a csv file, and the directory where all the content
files are.
And it outputs: a SimpleArchiveFormat directory (with subdirectories and
files) that is exactly what the DSpace CLI needs for itemimport.
I have some local enhancements that I haven't yet committed back to the
packager that allow multiple values per column, and the ability to specify
the bundle for a file.
i.e. We have the main file go into ORIGINAL, and a special license file to
go into PROXY-LICENSE.
Other things to consider would be SWORD or one of its clients such as
EasyDeposit (

).
