Introduction
This documentation describes the installation, configuration and use of the plugin to import Sisis SunRise files.
Installation
The plugin must be installed in the following folder:
There is also a configuration file, which must be located at the following location:
Additionally there is a tags
file, whose location is specified in the configuration file:
Overview and functionality
To use the import, the mass import area must be opened in the process templates and the intranda_import_sisis_sunrise_file
plugin must be selected in the File upload import
tab. A Sisis SunRise file can then be uploaded and imported.
The import takes place in several steps. First the whole file is read, and the maps child-parent and parent-children are created and saved (as JSON files) in the Goobi temp
folder for the current user. These maps are used to create anchor files in the next step.
The Sisis SunRise file is then broken into individual records. For each record, the process title is generated from the Catalogue Identifier (and any prefix specified in the configuration file) and checked to see whether the process already exists in Goobi. If this is not the case, the process is created and the configured metadata for anchor
and volume
is saved temporarily in a folder in the output path specified in the configuration. Any images are copied into an ´images` subfolder.
In the next step all these folders, containing the MetsMods files and the images, are imported into Goobi workflow as processes, and moved to the appropriate folders in Goobi.
Configuration
The configuration is done via the configuration file plugin_intranda_import_sisis_sunrise_file.xml
and can be adapted during operation.
The configuration allows different configurations for different process templates. For this purpose, only the name of the desired template must be entered in the template
field. The entry with the value *
is used for all templates for which no separate configuration exists.
rulesetPath
This is the path to the ruleset for the MetsMods files.
imagePathFile
This parameter defines the path to the image files, which are located either in the folder itself or in subfolders with the name of the Catalogue identifier.
tags
This parameter defines the translation file that translates the codes into metadata.
withSGML
If this parameter is set to true
, then SGML files are used. Note that this is currently not in use, but intended for a later version.
sgmlPath
If SGML files are used, this is the folder in which they are found.
defaultPublicationType
With this parameter the Type of the document is defined if it has no children or parents. A document with children is imported as MultiVolumeWork, the children are imported as Volumes.
collection
This specifies the metadata singleDigCollection
for the MetsMods files, the name of the collection to which the works belong.
listIDs
Here you define the path to a text file containing a list of Catalogue Identifiers. If this field is not empty, then only datasets with these Catalogue Identifiers will be imported from the Sisis SunRise file.
Tags
A tags file may look something like this:
Each line contains a code, followed by the name of the metadata which it should be translated to. Every metadata type in the list must be defined in the ruleset used for the project into which the file is to be imported, and the CatalogIDDigital
must be defined, as it is used to create the process ID.
