These settings control three aspects of the submission process: thesis submission permission, whether or not a bitstream file is required when submitting to a collection and whether to show a progress bar during the file upload.

 


Property:

webui.submit.blocktheses

Example Value:

webui.submit.blocktheses = false

Informational Note:

Controls whether or not the UI blocks a submission which is marked as a thesis.

Property:

webui.submit.upload.required

Example Value:

webui.submit.upload.required = true

Informational Note:

Whether or not a file is required to be uploaded during the "Upload" step in the submission process. The default is true. If set to "false", then the submitter (human being) has the option to skip the uploading of a file.

Property:

webui.submit.upload.html5

Example Value:webui.submit.upload.html5 = true
Informational Note:If the browser supports it, JSPUI uses html5 File API to enhance file upload. If this property is set to false the enhanced file upload is not used even if the browser would support it.

Property:

webui.submit.upload.progressbar

Example Value:
webui.submit.upload.progressbar = true
Informational Note:

Whether to show a progress bar during file upload. Please note that to work this feature requires a JSON endpoint (json/uploadProgress) that is enabled by default. See the named plugin for the interface org.dspace.app.webui.json.JSONRequest

org.dspace.app.webui.json.UploadProgressJSON = uploadProgress

This property is actually supported only by the JSPUI.  The XMLUI doesn't yet provide a progress bar indicator for file upload.

...

DSpace 4.0 introduced integration with the Sherpa/RoMEO Publishers Policy Database in order to allow displaying the publisher policy in the submission upload step. The submission step interface is available in JSPUI (since DSpace 4.0) and in XMLUI (since DSpace 5.0) and enabled by default, however to use it in production (over 500 requests per day), you must register for a free API key (see below for details). 


Property:

webui.submission.sherparomeo-policy-enabled

Example Value:

webui.submission.sherparomeo-policy-enabled = true

Informational Note:

Controls whether or not the UI submission should try to use the Sherpa/RoMEO Publishers Policy Database Integration (default true)

Property:

Warning
titleBehaviour change

Since DSpace 5.6 Creative Commons licensing is captured in exactly the same way in each UI and some fix has been introduced.

For JSPUI users this mean:

  • The full (HTML) text of the CC License is not longer stored in a bitstream named "license_txt" in the CC-LICENSE bundle
  • Previous existent license_txt remain untouched but new item will not receive such bitstream

For XMLUI users:

  • the RDF version of the CC License is now stored properly without the Creative Commons API XML envelop (

    serverIdc815ca92-fd23-34c2-8fe3-956808caf8c5
    keyDS-3326
    )
  • previous RDF license, i.e. the one associated with item created with version less than 5.6 remain untouched

 


The following configurations (in dspace.cfg) relate to the Creative Commons license process:

authority.minconfidence = ambiguous

Informational Note:

This sets the default lowest confidence level at which a metadata value is included in an authority-controlled browse (and search) index. It is a symbolic keyword, one of the following values (listed in descending order): accepted, uncertain, ambiguous, notfound, failed, rejected, novalue, unset. See org.dspace.content.authority.Choices source for descriptions.

Property:

xmlui.lookup.select.size

Example Value:

xmlui.lookup.select.size = 12

Informational Note:

This property sets the number of selectable choices in the Choices lookup popup

...

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 the 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 taken 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: webui.preferred.identifier
Example Value: webui.preferred.identifier = handle
Informational Note: At the top of the item view a persistent identifier is shown to be used to refer to this item. If you use Item Level Versioning and DSpace is configured to, it shows a version history. Per default DSpace uses handle as preferred identifier. If you've configured DSpace to register DOIs you can decide to use DOIs instead of handles at the top of the item view and within the version history. Set the property webui.preferred.identifier = doi to do so.
Property: webui.identifier.strip-prefixes
Example Value: webui.identifier.strip-prefixes = true
Informational Note:In the version history Persistent Identifiers can be shown with or without their prefixes, e.g. a handle can be shown as handle:10673/6 or just as 10673/6. A DOI can be  can be shown as 10.5072/example-doi-123 or as doi:105072/example-doi-123. This property controlls whether the handles are stripped (default) or not.

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:

webui.itemdisplay.label.restricted.bitstreams

Example Value:webui.itemdisplay.label.restricted.bitstreams = true
Informational Note:
If set to all, all users will get a warning if access restrictions are in place for an bitstream. If a resource policy with an unreached start date for anonymous users is in place, the date is shown as well. Any other values than "all" will suppress the warning.
Should access restricted bitstreams be labeled as such? If set true, all bitstreams which cannot currently not be read by an anonymous user are labeled as being access restricted. If a resource policy to allow read access for anonymous users with an unreached start date exists, this date is shown as well.

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.*


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> | .*][(date)], ...
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

Informational Note:

Enable or disable session invalidation upon login or logout. This feature is enabled by default to help prevent session hijacking but may cause problems for shibboleth, etc. If omitted, the default value is "true". [Only used for JSPUI authentication].

Property:

jspui.google.analytics.key

Example Value: jspui.google.analytics.key = UA-XXXXXX-X
Informational Note:

If you would like to use Google Analytics to track general website statistics then use the following parameter to provide your Analytics key.

 


JSPUI Item Mapper

Because the item mapper requires a primitive implementation of the browse system to be present, we simply need to tell that system which of our indexes defines the author browse (or equivalent) so that the mapper can list authors' items for mapping

...

Property:

sfx.server.url

Example Value:

sfx.server.url = http://sfx.myu.edu:8888/sfx?


 

sfx.server.url = http://worldcatlibraries.org/registry/gateway?

Informational Note:

SFX query is appended to this URL. If this property is commented out or omitted, SFX support is switched off.

...

Code Block
title\[dspace\]/config/modules/workflow.cfg
#Allow the reviewers to add/edit/remove files from the submission
#When changing this property you might want to alert submitters in the license that reviewers can alter their files
workflow.reviewer.file-edit=false

 


Both workflow systems send notifications on new Items waiting to be reviewed to all EPersons that may resolve those. Tasks can be taken to avoid that two EPersons work on the same task at the same time without knowing from each other. When a EPerson returns a task to the pool without resolving it (by accepting or rejecting the submission), another E-Mail is sent. In case you only want to be notified of completely new tasks entering a step of the workflow system, you may switch off notifications on tasks returned to the pool by setting workflow.notify.returend.tasks to false in config/modules/workflow.cfg as shown below:

JSPUI: Per item visual indicators for browse and search results

 


Visual indicators per item allow users to mark items in browse and search results. This could be useful in many scenarios, some of them follow:

...

  1. Multiple marks can be added per item (i.e. mark the type of the item and the availability of the bitstreams) 
  2. Easy configuration of the strategy of what mark to display in every item 
  3. Marks based on images or a generic class (i.e. a glyphicon icon for bootstrap) 
  4. Display tooltip when hovering the mark + localization of the tooltip 
  5. Easy addtion of new strategies for any type of mark the user desires 
  6. Add css styles for the user to configure the position of the marks in the list row 

...


Some theory:

A mark is an instance of the class: org.dspace.app.itemmarking.ItemMarkingInfo.

...

Moreover, this strategy add a link in the mark (in case there are bitstreams in the item) to the first bitstream of the item

 


How to:

In order to enable a mark for the result or browse list you need to change the option:

...

Keep in mind that the Strategy that you may write can have its own logic on how to create the ItemMarkingInfo per item. The only requirement of the feature is to add in the Spring configuration file the initial beans one for each mark you have declared in the dspace.cfg file. 


Styling:

The title for the column of each mark is titled based on the localized key “itemlist.mark_[value]”, so you just need to add the specific keys in the messages.propertied files.
