Developments and innovations to Goobi workflow in April 2019
Goobi workflow has now been extended so that thumbnails can now also be used in addition to the directories already used for the master files and derivatives. After completion of the entire implementation, these are then used within the metadata editor as well as within the Image QA plug-in for image display and thumbnail display. If such thumbnails are available, the image display can be done much faster. The directory convention for the thumbnails can be shown as follows for an exemplary process

At the same time, it is even easier to clean up the Goobi workflow system. Master files and derivatives can now be deleted from the system to save space. At the same time, however, very strongly compressed files can still be used for the workflow-internal image display. In addition, this also ensures that the thumbnails are not accidentally used for publication to the Goobi viewer and overwrite the high-resolution images there. Such a workflow could be structured in a similar way:

Workflow with automatic deletion of storage-intensive data
Goobi workflow has been enhanced with an internal message queue, which can be used to process complex tasks. With this new mechanism, it is possible to configure how many jobs can run simultaneously, thus preventing unwanted load peaks on the Goobi server. At the same time, it is also possible to use an external queue. This makes it possible to execute orders independent of Goobi on other computers and to distribute computing load across several systems. Previous developments (commits) have so far only introduced this new queue. Shell calls and all Goobi scripts will have to be converted to this new mechanism in the future.
The security dialog for the execution of GoobiScript was already revised not so long ago. However, what still disturbed the operation was that after entering the sum to be calculated, one still had to click with the mouse on the corresponding button to start the GoobiScript.

Security dialog of GoobiScript
This has now been revised so that pressing the Enter key already checks the calculation and the GoobiScript starts.
The first important step in the development of data exchange between different Goobi instances has now been taken as part of a more comprehensive import-export implementation. For this purpose, a new GoobiScript
exportDatabaseInformation
was developed, which writes a very detailed process log to the process directory for each filtered process.
New GoobiScript for data export
For example, such a log file looks like the following:
