Method Detail

getNamespaces

public org.jdom2.Namespace[] getNamespaces()

Description copied from interface: DisseminationCrosswalk

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()

Description copied from interface: DisseminationCrosswalk

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.

disseminateElement

public org.jdom2.Element disseminateElement(Context context,
                                            DSpaceObject dso)
                                     throws CrosswalkException,
                                            IOException,
                                            SQLException,
                                            AuthorizeException

Description copied from interface: DisseminationCrosswalk

Execute crosswalk, returning one XML root element as a JDOM Element object. This is typically the root element of a document.

Specified by:

disseminateElement in interface DisseminationCrosswalk

Parameters:

context - context

dso - the DSpace Object whose metadata to export.

Returns:

root Element of the target metadata, never null

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.

CrosswalkException

disseminateList

public List<org.jdom2.Element> disseminateList(Context context,
                                               DSpaceObject dso)
                                        throws CrosswalkException,
                                               IOException,
                                               SQLException,
                                               AuthorizeException

Description copied from interface: DisseminationCrosswalk

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.

CrosswalkException

canDisseminate

public boolean canDisseminate(DSpaceObject dso)

Description copied from interface: DisseminationCrosswalk

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()

Description copied from interface: DisseminationCrosswalk

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().
