Class AIPTechMDCrosswalk

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    DisseminationCrosswalk, IngestionCrosswalk
    public class AIPTechMDCrosswalk
extends Object
implements IngestionCrosswalk, DisseminationCrosswalk
    Crosswalk of technical metadata for DSpace AIP. This is only intended for use by the METS AIP packager. It borrows the DIM XML format and DC field names, although it abuses the meaning of Dublin Core terms and qualifiers because this format is ONLY FOR DSPACE INTERNAL USE AND INGESTION. It is needed to record a complete and accurate image of all of the attributes an object has in the RDBMS.

    It encodes the following common properties of all archival objects:

    identifier.uri
    persistent identifier of object in URI form (e.g. Handle URN)
    relation.isPartOf
    persistent identifier of object's parent in URI form (e.g. Handle URN)
    relation.isReferencedBy
    if relevant, persistent identifier of other objects that map this one as a child. May repeat.

    There may also be other fields, depending on the type of object, which encode attributes that are not part of the descriptive metadata and are not adequately covered by other technical MD formats (i.e. PREMIS).

    Configuration entries:

    aip.ingest.createEperson
    boolean, create EPerson for Submitter automatically, on ingest, if it doesn't exist.

    • Method Detail

      • getNamespaces

        public org.jdom.Namespace[] getNamespaces()
        Get XML namespaces of the elements this crosswalk may return. Returns the XML namespaces (as JDOM objects) of the root element.
        Specified by:
        getNamespaces in interface DisseminationCrosswalk
        Returns:
        array of namespaces, which may be empty.

      • getSchemaLocation

        public String getSchemaLocation()
        Get the XML Schema location(s) of the target metadata format. Returns the string value of the xsi:schemaLocation attribute that should be applied to the generated XML.

        It may return the empty string if no schema is known, but crosswalk authors are strongly encouraged to implement this call so their output XML can be validated correctly.

        Specified by:
        getSchemaLocation in interface DisseminationCrosswalk
        Returns:
        SchemaLocation string, including URI namespace, followed by whitespace and URI of XML schema document, or empty string if unknown.

      • canDisseminate

        public boolean canDisseminate​(DSpaceObject dso)
        Predicate: Can this disseminator crosswalk the given object. Needed by OAI-PMH server implementation.
        Specified by:
        canDisseminate in interface DisseminationCrosswalk
        Parameters:
        dso - dspace object, e.g. an Item.
        Returns:
        true when disseminator is capable of producing metadata.

      • preferList

        public boolean preferList()
        Predicate: Does this disseminator prefer to return a list of Elements, rather than a single root Element?

        Some metadata formats have an XML schema without a root element, for example, the Dublin Core and Qualified Dublin Core formats. This would be true for a crosswalk into QDC, since it would "prefer" to return a list, since any root element it has to produce would have to be part of a nonstandard schema. In most cases your implementation will want to return false

        Specified by:
        preferList in interface DisseminationCrosswalk
        Returns:
        true when disseminator prefers you call disseminateList().

      • disseminateList

        public List<org.jdom.Element> disseminateList​(Context context,
                                              DSpaceObject dso)
                                       throws CrosswalkException,
                                              IOException,
                                              SQLException,
                                              AuthorizeException
        Execute crosswalk, returning List of XML elements. Returns a List of JDOM Element objects representing the XML produced by the crosswalk. This is typically called when a list of fields is desired, e.g. for embedding in a METS document xmlData field.

        When there are no results, an empty list is returned, but never null.

        Specified by:
        disseminateList in interface DisseminationCrosswalk
        Parameters:
        context - context
        dso - the DSpace Object whose metadata to export.
        Returns:
        results of crosswalk as list of XML elements.
        Throws:
        CrosswalkInternalException - (CrosswalkException) failure of the crosswalk itself.
        CrosswalkObjectNotSupported - (CrosswalkException) Cannot crosswalk this kind of DSpace object.
        IOException - I/O failure in services this calls
        SQLException - Database failure in services this calls
        AuthorizeException - current user not authorized for this operation.
        CrosswalkInternalException - (CrosswalkException) failure of the crosswalk itself.
        CrosswalkObjectNotSupported - (CrosswalkException) Cannot crosswalk this kind of DSpace object.
        CrosswalkException
