Class RoleCrosswalk

All Implemented Interfaces:
DisseminationCrosswalk, IngestionCrosswalk

public class RoleCrosswalk extends AbstractPackagerWrappingCrosswalk implements IngestionCrosswalk, DisseminationCrosswalk
Role Crosswalk

Translate between DSpace Group and EPeople definitions and a DSpace-specific XML export format (generated by the RoleDisseminator). This is primarily used for AIPs, but may be used by other Packagers as necessary.

This crosswalk allows you to export DSpace Groups and EPeople to this XML structured format. It also allows you to import an XML file of this format in order to restore DSpace Groups and EPeople defined within it.

This is just wrappers; the real work is done in RoleDisseminator and RoleIngester.

    • getNamespaces

      public org.jdom2.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.
      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?
      Specified by:
      preferList in interface DisseminationCrosswalk
      Returns:
      true when disseminator prefers you call disseminateList().
    • disseminateList

      public List<org.jdom2.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
    • disseminateElement

      public org.jdom2.Element disseminateElement(Context context, DSpaceObject dso) throws CrosswalkException, IOException, SQLException, AuthorizeException
      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.
      CrosswalkInternalException - (CrosswalkException) failure of the crosswalk itself.
      CrosswalkObjectNotSupported - (CrosswalkException) Cannot crosswalk this kind of DSpace object.
      CrosswalkException
    • ingest

      public void ingest(Context context, DSpaceObject dso, List<org.jdom2.Element> metadata, boolean createMissingMetadataFields) throws CrosswalkException, IOException, SQLException, AuthorizeException
      Ingest a List of XML elements
      Specified by:
      ingest in interface IngestionCrosswalk
      Parameters:
      context - context
      dso - DSpaceObject
      metadata - list of metadata
      createMissingMetadataFields - whether to create missing fields
      Throws:
      CrosswalkException - if crosswalk error
      IOException - if IO error
      SQLException - if database error
      AuthorizeException - if authorization error
    • ingest

      public void ingest(Context context, DSpaceObject dso, org.jdom2.Element root, boolean createMissingMetadataFields) throws CrosswalkException, IOException, SQLException, AuthorizeException
      Ingest a whole XML document, starting at specified root.

      This essentially just wraps a call to the configured Role PackageIngester.

      Specified by:
      ingest in interface IngestionCrosswalk
      Parameters:
      context - context
      dso - DSpaceObject
      root - root element
      createMissingMetadataFields - whether to create missing fields
      Throws:
      CrosswalkException - if crosswalk error
      IOException - if IO error
      SQLException - if database error
      AuthorizeException - if authorization error
