Re: [Dspace-tech] Experience using external handle and/or use cases

I'm not sure if https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1637 really meets 
the design goal to split off the Handle service entirely from DSpace. 
It still looks to be a plugin to the existing local handle server.
Yes the remote handle service plugin is a way to expose the internal 
handle storage of DSpace to a central handle server. The single DSpace 
is still responsible for handle mint and resolution. With this 
functionality we are able to run a single handle server daemon in our 
farm for all hosting DSpace installation.

Hope this help to clarify,
Andrea





Problems with the local DSpace handle service that really need fixing...

1.) cannot mint under multiple prefixes and opaque unique suffixes 
with their own naming conventions.
2.) doesn't implement caching/bulk replication API, so if DSpace is 
offline, so is resolution via hdl.handle.net http://hdl.handle.net/.
3.) DSpace conflates actual Handle with local identifier for 
Item/Community/Collection


A HandleIdentifierProvider that remotely registers handles with an 
organizational handle service would resolve both these issues. Looks 
like MarkW already identified this as well...

Hi All,

I've been reading up on the various configurations that you can
run DSpace and the handle service in, and I was wondering if
people would be willing to share their experiences with non
traditional set ups.

So, the out-of-the-box traditional setup, that I'm guessing 99% of
us use is to run DSpace, and configure the start-handle-server to
connect to DSpace using java (loads the dspace jars, gets access
to DSpace API org.dspace.handle.HandlePlugin, tries to resolve the
incoming request with that DSpace).

So, for an upcoming project, imagine that someone wants to be able
to take a collection OUT of DSpace, and put it into another
application on their campus. If they wanted their handles to
continue to resolve, the new application would need to speak
handle, but the handle service would need to know how to resolve
handles to multiple applications.

I know there have been some enhancements to DSpace over the years,
I was just wondering if anyone who had experience with them could
share what is possible, or if there is work that still needs to be
done in this area.

One of the new enhancements to DSpace is to allow the handle
service to be on an external server from DSpace:
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1637

It adds some additional endpoints in XMLUI/JSPUI to respond in
text, which an external handle service could use to resolve. Then
the box that runs DSpace, can be properly firewalled, on a private
IP address, and not have world accessible ports coming in. (Your
external webserver, and external handle service would be public,
but know how to internally connect to DSpace).


So, some XMLUI endpoints, that external handle service could use
to resolve:

[http://trydspace5.longsight.com/handle/123456789/79;]


As far as I understand it. DSpace provides a route to allow a
handle service to determine if DSpace contains that content. If
you moved a collection from DSpaceA to repositoryX, you would need
to have a handle service that knew how to lookup both DSpaceA and
repositoryX to see if one of them can resolve that handle?

And then another question along this same line. Say you have
multiple applications on campus, and wanted each to be capable of
minting handles, has anyone ever worked on a process to have each
application contact this central handle resolver to ensure that
the handle it wants to mint is available? I imagine this would be
some type of transaction, to ensure that competition among
consumer applications doesn't lead to a conflict. (Both apps ask
if handle is in use, both hear no, each mints, each posts back to
handle service that its has just minted it, and then, how to roll
back, or handle that state). Ivan mentioned to me, that they just
assign handle ranges to each application.
i.e. DSpaceA = 0-(1M-1), DSpaceB = 1M-(2M-1)
I suppose another route, would be to just use a UUID, and not
worry about colliding. And then, another thing that I think would
be possible, but I would need clarification is: handle prefixes
with dots. Such as 1234.1 or 1234.thesis or 1234.dspace1. Are you

[Dspace-tech] Listing Communities in DSpace home page

2014-11-15 Thread Nada Abo-Eita
Dear DSpace Community,

I am wondering how to categorize the communities into different categories
to be listed in DSpace home page, as following:

Communities in DSpace :
Select a community to browse its collections.

* 1st Category
 { list of communities in the 1st Category}
*  2nd Category
 { list of communities in the 2nd Category }

Should I have another template that responsible to do such categorization,
and what are the changes that should be done in news-xmlui.xml ??

Note: DSpace version 4.2


Regards,

Nada Abo Eita

Re: [Dspace-tech] Timed embargo

2014-11-15 Thread Xerio Cheri
I've enabled webui.submission.restrictstep.enableAdvancedForm=true in the
dspace.cfg file, now I can see the additional step in the submission
workflow, however, I can't see a change in the 'Authorizations' page for an
item. I can still manage the default options, READ, WRITE, ADD, REMOVE,
ADMIN, but I wonder what should I choose to make an item be embargoed until
a specific date.

Any help is appreciated.

Regards.

 Yes, after enabling webui.submission.restrictstep.enableAdvancedForm,
 you can create new resourcepolicies with a start and end date from the
 Edit item / Authorizations page.

You have to create a new policy. Previously existing policies won't
