Developments and innovations to Goobi workflow in November 2018
After extensive testing, the internal management of program libraries and interaction with the 170 plug-ins currently available were converted to Maven. This allows for easier use of repeatedly required functionalities via integrated modules and libraries. As in the past, the switch from Ant to Maven still allows the .war file and a .jar file to be compiled that can be installed in an application server such as Apache Tomcat.
With the pom.xml available within Maven projects, it is now relatively easy for anyone interested to download and compile a Goobi from Github themselves, or to develop one themselves with commands such as:
git clone https://github.com/intranda/goobi.git
mvn install
These calls download the source code of Goobi from Github and compile it afterwards. The file
goobi.war existing in the module-war/target/ directory can then be installed in the application server.https://github.com/intranda/goobi/commit/12558bc5279245ca9728558e3315edb59ee2a471 https://github.com/intranda/goobi/commit/dc0c53a55dc7c89ca3e23191013f6dcfd6eb8fc7 https://github.com/intranda/goobi/commit/38e26c12a78eb6577e1fb8dbe152926aa039403b https://github.com/intranda/goobi/commit/6f8467a0384249c4a7762ff15bc596ba92be8ecd https://github.com/intranda/goobi/commit/7b9aea59178caef8524b1b02a47031c4193fbfee https://github.com/intranda/goobi/commit/64a54a6e7d08f358e9c598ae8dcbf530c8802bf1
Goobi has been enhanced for a new step type: the
HTTP step. GET, POST and PUT requests can be executed automatically here.If the call is successful and the status code
20x is returned, the work step (if configured in this way) is closed. Any error messages that occur are stored in the process log and can therefore be traced afterwards.The following screenshot shows an example configuration for calling the TaskManager OCR plugin:
Configuration of an HTTP Step
The configuration used here uses POST and sends it to the address
http://localhost:8080/itm/service:{
"jobType":"OCR",
"source":"{tifpath}",
"target":"{processpath}/ocr/"
}
Goobi workflow now supports the ability to create JSON Web Tokens (JWT) that allow access to the API for a specified time. These JWTs are provided as variables within HTTP calls. So far the JWT
{changesteptoken} already exists, which allows to change a certain work step.Last modified 3yr ago
