Greetings, I'm trying to get my head around how best to use Sword v2 to upload a large lecture video collection to our circle.ubc.ca IR. My initial attempt was to use the Python client implementation which seemed to work well when I tested it against the demo.dspace.org DSpace 4 server. I was hoping that our DSpace 3.2 servers would work just as well but that was not the case. I couldn't even get access to the service document. I don't know if it's an issue with the Python client or DSpace server Sword implementation. I haven't been able to find any specific references to this issue on the Net. I'm now trying to prepare the upload package directly but I'm having some issues with the metadata. I've successfully loaded some sample data using curl which is encouraging but I was wondering if there was a way to map the metadata in the METS manifest file to support QDC? It does appear to support DC, MODS and EPDCX but I have a few fields for which I could not find a mapping. Here's a sample of the metadata that we're trying to upload. {
"dc.contributor.author" : "Carlsson, Gunnar"
"dc.title" : "Opening remarks: State of TDA"
"dc.type" : "Moving Image"
"dc.date.issued" : "2012-10-15T09:03"
"dc.language.iso" : "eng"
"dc.description.abstract" : ""
"dc.description.affiliation" : "Stanford University"
"dc.description.scholarlevel" : "Faculty"
"dc.format.extent" : "43 minutes"
"dc.publisher" : "Banff International Research Station"
"dc.description.reviewstatus" : "Unreviewed"
"dc.relation" : "12w5081: Topological data analysis and machine learning theory"
"dc.subject" : "Data mining"
}
Any thoughts would be most welcome. Sword seems to be a great tool
when it works but it does have a bit of a learning curve.--
