Comment: Added podcast.mimetypes new config, and changed item.sourceuri to podcast.sourceuri

...

For ease of use, the Configuration documentation is broken into several parts:

...

  1. Wiki Markup
    The "source" file that is found in {{\[DSDOCDEV:dspace-source\]/dspace/config/dspace.cfg}}
  2. Wiki Markup
    The "runtime" file that is found in {{\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/dspace.cfg}}
The runtime file is supposed to be the *copy* of the source file, which is considered the master version. However, the DSpace server and command programs only look at the _runtime_ configuration file, so when you are revising your configuration values, it is tempting to _only edit the runtime file_. *DO NOT* do this. Always make the same changes to the source version of {{dspace.cfg}} in addition to the runtime file. The two files should always be identical, since the source {{dspace.cfg}} will be the basis of your next upgrade.

Wiki Markup
To keep the two files in synchronization, you can edit your files in {{\[DSDOCDEV:dspace-source\]/dspace/config/}} and then you would run the following commands:

...

Wiki Markup
This will copy the source {{dspace.cfg}} (along with other configuration files) into the runtime ({{\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config}}) directory.

...

  • Wiki Markup
    Run {{ant \-Dconfig=\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/dspace.cfg update}} if you are updating your {{dspace.cfg}} file and wish to see the changes appear. Follow the usual sequence with copying your webapps.
  • Wiki Markup
    If you edit _dspace.cfg_ in _\[DSDOCDEV:dspace-source\]/dspace/config/_, you should then run '_ant init_configs_' in the directory _\[DSDOCDEV:dspace-source\]/dspace/target/dspace-1.5.2-build.dir_ so that any changes you may have made are reflected in the configuration files of other applications, for example Apache. You may then need to restart those applications, depending on what you changed.

...

Property:

dspace.dir

Example Value:

/dspace

Informational Note:

Root directory of DSpace installation. Omit the trailing '/'. Note that if you change this, there are several other parameters you will probably want to change to match, e.g. assetstore.dir .

Property:

dspace.hostname

Example Value:

dspace.hostname = dspace.mysu.edu

Informational Note:

Fully qualified hostname; do not include port number.

Property:

dspace.baseUrl

Example Value:

http://dspacetest.myu.edu:8080

Image Removed

Informational Note:

Main URL at which DSpace Web UI webapp is deployed. Include any port number, but do not include the trailing '/'.

Property:

dspace.url

Example Value:

dspace.url = ${dspace.baseUrl}/jspui

Informational note

DSpace base URL. URL that determines whether JSPUI or XMLUI will be loaded by default. Include port number etc., but NOT trailing slash. Change to /xmlui if you wish to use the xmlui (Manakin) as the default, or remove "/jspui" and set webapp of your choice as the "ROOT" webapp in the servlet engine.

Property:

dspace.oai.url

Example Value:

dspace.oai.url = ${dspace.baseUrl}/oai

Informational note:

The base URL of the OAI webapp (do not include /request).

Property:

dspace.name

Example Value:

dspace.name = DSpace at My University

Informational Note:

Short and sweet site name, used throughout Web UI, e-mails and elsewhere (such as OAI protocol)

...

Wiki Markup
Sometimes DSpace automatically sends e-mail messages to users, for example, to inform them of a new work flow task, or as a subscription e-mail alert. The wording of emails can be changed by editing the relevant file in {{\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/emails}} . Each file is commented. Be careful to keep the right number 'placeholders' (e.g._\{2\}_).

...

DSpace supports two distinct options for storing your repository bitstreams (uploaded files). The files are not stored in the database in which Metadata, user information, ... are stored. An assetstore is a directory on your server, on which the bitstreams are stored and consulted afterwards. The usage of different assetstore directories is the default "technique" in DSpace. The parameters below define which assetstores are present, and which one should be used for newly incoming items. As an alternative, DSpace can also use SRB (Storage Resource Brokerage) as an alternative. See DSDOCDEV:SRB File Storage for details regarding SRB.

Property:

assetstore.dir

Example Value:

assetstore.dir = ${dspace.dir}/assetstore

Informational Note:

This is Asset (bitstream) store number 0 (Zero). You need not place your assetstore under the /dspace directory, but may want to place it on a different logical volume on the server that DSpace resides. So, you might have something like this: assetstore.dir = /storevgm/assestore .

Property:

Code Block
assetstore.dir.1
assetstore.dir.2

Example Value:

Code Block
assetstore.dir.1 = /second/assetstore
assetstore.dir.2 = /third/assetstore

Informational Note:

This property specifies extra asset stores like the one above, counting from one (1) upwards. This property is commented out (#) until it is needed.

Property:

assetstore.incoming

Example Value:

assetstore.incoming = 1

Informational Note:

Informational Note: Specify the number of the store to use for new bitstreams with this property. The default is 0 [DSDOCDEV:zero] which corresponds to the 'assestore.dir' above. As the asset store number is stored in the item metadata (in the database), always keep the assetstore numbering consistent and don't change the asset store number in the item metadata.

After changing the configuration run {{/\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/bin/dspace index-init}} to regenerate the indexes.

...

Property:

handle.canonical.prefix

Example Value

handle.canonical.prefix = http://hdl.handle.net/

Image Removed


handle.canonical.prefix = ${dspace.url}/handle/

Informational Note:

Canonical Handle URL prefix. By default, DSpace is configured to use http://hdl.handle.net/

Image Removed

as the canonical URL prefix when generating dc.identifier.uri during submission, and in the 'identifier' displayed in item record pages. If you do not subscribe to CNRI's handle service, you can change this to match the persistent URL service you use, or you can force DSpace to use your site's URL, e.g. handle.canonical.prefix = ${dspace.url}/handle/. Note that this will not alter dc.identifer.uri metadata for existing items (only for subsequent submissions).

Property:

handle.prefix

Example Value

handle.prefix = 1234.56789

Informational Note:

The default installed by DSpace is 123456789 but you will replace this upon receiving a handle from CNRI.

Property:

handle.dir

Example Value:

handle.dir = ${dspace.dir}/handle-server

Informational Note:

The default files, as shown in the Example Value is where DSpace will install the files used for the Handle Server.

...

Properties:

crosswalk.mods.properties.MODS
crosswalk.mods.properties.mods

Example Values:

crosswalk.mods.properties.MODS = crosswalks/mods.properties
crosswalk.mods.properties.mods = crosswalks/mods.properties

Informational Note:

This defines a crosswalk named MODS whose configuration comes from the file [DSDOCDEV:dspace]/config/crosswalks/mods.properties . (In the above example, the lower-case name was added for OAI-PMH)

]]></ac:plain-text-body></ac:structured-macro>

Wiki Markup
{{crosswalk}} first part of the property key.
{{submission}} second part of the property key.
{{PluginName}} is the name of the plugin. The _path_ value is the path to the file containing the crosswalk stylesheet (relative to {{/\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config}}).
Here is an example that configures a crosswalk named "LOM" using a stylesheet in {{\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/crosswalks/d-lom.xsl}}:
{{crosswalk.submission.LOM.stylesheet = crosswalks/d-lom.xsl}}
A dissemination crosswalk can be configured by starting with the property key _crosswalk.dissemination_. Example:
{{crosswalk.dissemination.PluginName.stylesheet = path}}
The _PluginName_ is the name of the plugin (\!) . The _path_ value is the path to the file containing the crosswalk stylesheet (relative to {{/\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config}}).

You can make two different plugin names point to the same crosswalk, by adding two configuration entries with the same path:

...

Wiki Markup
In the property key "{{crosswalk.qdc.properties.QDC}}" the value of this property is a path to a separate properties file containing the configuration for this crosswalk. The pathname is relative to the DSpace configuration directory {{/\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config}} . Referring back to the "Example Value" for this property key, one has {{crosswalks/qdc.properties}} which defines a crosswalk named {{QDC}} whose configuration comes from the file {{\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/crosswalks/qdc.properties}} .

...

  1. Simple Dates.If you want to enter simple calendar dates for when an embargo will expire, follow these steps.
    1. Select a metadata field. Let's use dc.description.embargo. This field does not exist in in the default DSpace metadata directory, so login as an administrator, go the metadata registry page, select the 'dc' schema, then add the metadata field.
    2. Wiki Markup
      Expose the metadata field. Edit _\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/input-forms.xml_ . If you have only one form‚ usually 'traditional', add it there. If you have multiple forms, add it only to the forms linked to collections for which embargo applies:
      Code Block
      <form name="traditional">
    <page number="1">
      ...
       <field>
         <dc-schema>dc</dc-schema>
         <dc-element>description</dc-element>
         <dc-qualifier>embargo</dc-qualifier>
         <repeatable>false</repeatable>
         <label>Embargo Date</label>
         <input-type>onebox</input-type>
         <hint>If required, enter date 'yyyy-mm-dd' when embargo expires or 'forever'.</hint>
         <required></required>
       </field>
      Note: if you want to require embargo terms for every item, put a phrase in the <required> element. Example:<required>You must enter an embargo date</required>
    3. Wiki Markup
      Configure Embargo. Edit _\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/dspace.cfg_. Find the Embargo properties and set these two:
      Code Block
      # DC metadata field to hold the user-supplied embargo terms
embargo.field.terms = dc.description.embargo

# DC metadata field to hold computed "lift date" of embargo
embargo.field.lift = dc.description.embargo
    4. Restart DSpace application. This will pick up these changes. Now just enter future dates (if applicable) in web submission and the items will be placed under embargo. You can enter years ('2020'), years and months ('2020-12'), or also days ('2020-12-15').
    5. Wiki Markup
      Periodically run the lifter. Run the task:_\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/bin/dspace embargo-lifter_You will want to run this task in a cron-scheduled or other repeating way. Item embargoes will be lifted as their dates pass.
  2. Period Sets. If you wish to use a fixed set of time periods (e.g. 90 days, 6 months and 1 year) as embargo terms, follow these steps, which involve using a custom 'setter'.
    1. Select two metadata fields. Let's use 'dc.embargo.terms' and 'dc.embargo.lift'. These fields do not exist in the default DSpace metadata registry. Login as an administrator, go the metadata registry page, select the 'dc' schema, then add the metadata fields.
    2. Wiki Markup
      Expose the 'term' metadata field. The lift field will be assigned by the embargo system, so it should not be exposed directly. Edit _\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/input-forms.xml_ . If you have only one form (usually 'traditional') add it there. If you have multiple forms, add it only to the form(s) linked to collection(s) for which embargo applies. First, add the new field to the 'form definition':
      Code Block
      <form name="traditional">
    <page number="1">
      ...
       <field>
         <dc-schema>dc</dc-schema>
         <dc-element>embargo</dc-element>
         <dc-qualifier>terms</dc-qualifier>
         <repeatable>false</repeatable>
         <label>Embargo Terms</label>
         <input-type value-pairs-name="embargo_terms">dropdown</input-type>
         <hint>If required, select embargo terms.</hint>
         <required></required>
         </field>
      Note: If you want to require embargo terms for every item, put a phrase in the <required> element, e.g._<required>You must select embargo terms</required>_Observe that we have referenced a new value-pair list: "embargo_terms'. We must now define that as well (only once even if references by multiple forms):
      Code Block
      <form-value-pairs>
   ...
   <value-pairs value-pairs-name="embargo_terms" dc-term="embargo.terms">
     <pair>
       <displayed-value>90 days</displayed-value>
       <stored-value>90 days</stored-value>
     </pair>
     <pair>
       <displayed-value>6 months</displayed-value>
       <stored-value>6 months</stored-value>
     </pair>
     <pair>
       <displayed-value>1 year</displayed-value>
       <stored-value>1 year</stored-value>
     </pair>
   </value-pairs>
      Note: if desired, you could localize the language of the displayed value.
    3. Configure Embargo. Edit /dspace/config/dspace.cfg. Find the Embargo properties and set the following properties:
      Code Block
      # DC metadata field to hold the user-supplied embargo terms
    embargo.field.terms = dc.embargo.terms

    # DC metadata field to hold computed "lift date" of embargo
    embargo.field.lift = dc.embargo.lift

    # implementation of embargo setter plugin - replace with local implementation if applicable
    plugin.single.org.dspace.embargo.EmbargoSetter = org.dspace.embargo.DayTableEmbargoSetter

...

    1. Wiki Markup
      Periodically run the lifter. Run the task:
{{\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/bin/dspace embargo-lifter}} .
You will want to run this task in a cron-scheduled or other repeating way. Item embargoes will be lifted as their dates pass.

...

Wiki Markup
DSpace now comes with a Checksum Checker script ({{\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/bin/dspace checker}}) which can be scheduled to verify the checksum of every item within DSpace. Since DSpace calculates and records the checksum of every file submitted to it, this script is able to determine whether or not a file has been changed (either manually or by some sort of corruption or virus). The idea being that the earlier you can identify a file has changed, the more likely you'd be able to recover it (assuming it was not a wanted change).

...

Wiki Markup
This enables the Creative Commons license step in the submission process of either the JSP or XML User Interface (JSP UI or XML UI). Submitters are given an opportunity to select a Creative Common license to accompany the item. Creative Commons licenses govern the use of the content. For further details, refer to the Creative Commons website at [http://creativecommons.org|http://creativecommons.org|http://creativecommons.org] . Creative Commons licensing is enabled as one step of the configurable submission process, and therefore may be configured for any given collection that has a defined submission sequence, or be part of the 'default' submission process. This process is described in the 'Customizing and Configuring Submission User Interface' section of this manual. There is a Creative Commons step already defined (step 5), but it is commented out, so enabling Creative Commons licensing is typically just a matter of uncommenting the CC License step. For the JSP UI, Creative Commons licensing is effected by opening an Iframe to the Creative Commons site and capturing the selection result in several bitstreams, but the XML UI utilizes a more flexible web service. By default, when a license is selected in the interface, the URI for the license is stored in the 'dc.rights.uri' metadata field for the Item, and a representation of the license text is stored in a license bundle. In addition, the following properties in {{\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/dspace.cfg}} may be customized for use:

...

Informational Note:

When showing the strengths, should they be counted in real time, or fetched from the cache. Counts fetched in real time will perform an actual count of the database contents every time a page with this feature is requested, which will not scale. If you set the property key is set to cache ("true") you must run the following command periodically to update the count: /[DSDOCDEV:dspace]/bin/dspace itemcounter. The default is to count in real time (set to "false").

This optional property for the Podcast Support will allow you to use a value for a metadata field as a replacement for actual bitstreams to be enclosed in the RSS feed. A use case for specifying the external sourceuri would be if you have a non-DSpace media streaming server that has a copy of your media file that you would prefer to have the media streamed from.

...

Property:

webui.itemdisplay.default

Example Value:

Code Block
webui.itemdisplay.default = dc.title, dc.title.alternative, \
           dc.contributor.*, dc.subject, dc.data.issued(date), \
           dc.publisher, dc.identifier.citation, \
           dc.relation.ispartofseries, dc.description.abstract, \
           dc.description, dc.identifier.govdoc, \
           dc.identifier.uri(link), dc.identifier.isbn, \
           dc.identifier.issn, dc.identifier.ismn, dc.identifier

Informational Note:

This is used to customize the DC metadata fields that display in the item display (the brief display) when pulling up a record. The format is: <schema>.<element>.<_optional_qualifier> . In place of the qualifier, one can use the wildcard "*" to include all fields of the same element, or, leave it blank for unqualified elements. Additionally, two additional options are available for behavior/rendering: (date) and (link). See the following examples:

dc.title = Dublin Core element 'title' (unqualified)
dc.title.alternative = DC element 'title', qualifier 'alternative'
dc.title.* = All fields with Dublin Core element 'title' (any or no qualifier)
dc.identifier.uri(link) = DC identifier.uri, rendered as a link
dc.date.issued(date) = DC date.issued, rendered as a date
The Messages.properties file controls how the fields defined above will display to the user. If the field is missing from the _Messages.properties_ file, it will not be displayed. Look in Messages.properties}}under {{metadata.dc.<field>. Example:
metadata.dc.contributor.other = Authors
metadata.dc.contributor.author = Authors
metadata.dc.title.* = Title
Please note: The order in which you place the values to the property key control the order in which they will display to the user on the outside world. (See the Example Value above).

Property:

Code Block
webui.resolver.1.urn
webui.resolver.1.baseurl
webui.resolver.2.urn
webui.resolver.2.baseurl

Example Value:

Code Block
webui.resolver.1.urn = doi
webui.resolver.1.baseurl = http://dx.doi.org/
webui.resolver.2.urn = hdl
webui.resolver.2.baseurl = http://hdl.handle.net/

Informational Note:

When using "resolver" in webui.itemdisplay to render identifiers as resolvable links, the base URL is take from <code>webui.resolver.<n>.baseurl<code> where <code>webui.resolver.<n>.baseurl<code> matches the urn specified in the metadata value. The value is appended to the "baseurl" as is, so the baseurl needs to end with the forward slash almost in any case. If no urn is specified in the value it will be displayed as simple text. For the doi and hdl urn defaults values are provided, respectively http://dc.doi.org and http://hdl.handle.net are used. If a metadata value with style "doi", "handle" or "resolver" matches a URL already, it is simply rendered as a link with no other manipulation.

Property:

plugin.single.org.dspace.app.webui.util.StyleSelection

Example Value:

Code Block
plugin.single.org.dspace.app.webui.util.StyleSelection = \
  org.dspace.app.web.util.CollectionStyleSelection
  #org.dspace.app.web.util.MetadataStyleSelection

Informational Note:

Specify which strategy to use for select the style for an item.

Property:

webui.itemdisplay.thesis.collections

Example Value:

webui.itemdisplay.thesis.collections = 123456789/24, 123456789/35

Informational Note:

Specify which collections use which views by Handle.

Property:

Code Block
webui.itemdisplay.metadata-style
webui.itemdisplay.metadata-style

Example Value:

Code Block
webui.itemdisplay.metadata-style = schema.element[.qualifier|.*]
webui.itemdisplay.metadata-style = dc.type

Informational Note:

Specify which metadata to use as name of the style

Property:

webui.itemlist.columns

Example Value:

Code Block
webui.itemlist.columns = thumbnail, dc.date.issued(date), dc.title, \
          dc.contributor.*

<ac:structured-macro ac:name="unmigrated-wiki-markup" ac:schema-version="1" ac:macro-id="9d5fb0a3fc1e4b75-36c4a845-4d674df4-b5158990-6d2c68864962697a4ba9af4d"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[

Informational Note:

Customize the DC fields to use in the item listing page. Elements will be displayed left to right in the order they are specified here. The form is <schema prefix>.<element>[.<qualifier> | DSDOCDEV:.*][DSDOCDEV:(date)], ...
]]></ac:plain-text-body></ac:structured-macro>
Although not a requirement, it would make sense to include among the listed fields at least the date and title fields as specified by the* webui.browse.index. configuration options in the next section mentioned. (cf.)
If you have enabled thumbnails (webui.browse.thumbnail.show), you must also include a 'thumbnail' entry in your columns‚ this is where the thumbnail will be displayed.

Property:

webui.itemlist.width

Example Value:

webui.itemlist.width = *, 130, 60%, 40%

Informational Note:

You can customize the width of each column with the following line--you can have numbers (pixels) or percentages. For the 'thumbnail' column, a setting of '*' will use the max width specified for browse thumbnails (cf. webui.browse.thumbnail.maxwidth, thumbnail.maxwidth)

Property:

Code Block
webui.itemlist.browse.<index name>.sort.<sort name>.columns
webui.itemlist.sort.<sort name>.columns
webui.itemlist.browse.<browse name>.columns
webui.itemlist.<sort or index name>.columns

Example Value:

_}}

Informational Note:

You can override the DC fields used on the listing page for a given browse index and/or sort option. As a sort option or index may be defined on a field that isn't normally included in the list, this allows you to display the fields that have been indexed/sorted on. There are a number of forms the configuration can take, and the order in which they are listed below is the priority in which they will be used (so a combination of an index name and sort name will take precedence over just the browse name).In the last case, a sort option name will always take precedence over a browse index name. Note also, that for any additional columns you list, you will need to ensure there is an itemlist.<field name> entry in the messages file.

Property:

webui.itemlist.dateaccessioned.columns

Example Value:

webui.itemlist.dateaccessioned.columns = thumbnail, dc.date.accessioned(date), dc.title, dc.contributor.*

Informational Note:

This would display the date of the accession in place of the issue date whenever the dateaccessioned browsed index or sort option is selected. Just like webui.itemlist.columns, you will need to include a 'thumbnail' entry to display the thumbnails in the item list.

Property:

webui.itemlist.dateaccessioned.widths

Example Value:

webui.itemlist.dateaccessioned.widths = *, 130, 60%, 40%

Informational Note:

As in the aforementioned property key, you can customize the width of the columns for each configured column list, substituting '.widths' for '.columns' in the property name. See the setting for webui.itemlist.widths for more information.

Property:

webui.itemlist.tablewidth

Example Value:

webui.itemlist.tablewidth = 100%

Informational Note:

You can also set the overall size of the item list table with the following setting. It can lead to faster table rendering when used with the column widths above, but not generally recommended.

Property:

webui.session.invalidate

Example Value:

webui.session.invalidate = true

The Metadata Format and Bitstream Format Registries

Wiki Markup
The _\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/registries_ directory contains three XML files. These are used to load the _initial_ contents of the Dublin Core Metadata registry and Bitstream Format registry and SWORD metadata registry. After the initial loading (performed by _ant fresh_install_ above), the registries reside in the database; the XML files are not updated.

...

Wiki Markup
The bitstream formats recognized by the system and levels of support are similarly stored in the bitstream format registry. This can also be edited at install-time via _\[DSDOCDEV:dspace\]/config/registries/bitstream-formats.xml_ or by the administration Web UI. The contents of the bitstream format registry are entirely up to you, though the system requires that the following two formats are present:
