a simple utility to check and harvest metadata records from an OAI request when they meet theDLTN requirements

Project description

TravisCI badge PyPI badge

About

Tests whether records from an OAI-PMH feed pass minimum requirements of DLTN and optionally harvests only the good records from a request to disk so that they can be added to Repox and included in the DPLA.

Install

Running with Builtin Argument Parsing from a CLI

If you want to do it this way, you’re going to need to clone this. It’s also suggested to build this with pipenv.

$ git clone https://github.com/DigitalLibraryofTennessee/check_and_harvest
$ cd check_and_harvest
$ pipenv install
$ pipenv shell

Using OAIChecker from the dltnchecker module

If you’re cool :sunglasses: :

$ pipenv install dltn_checker

Otherwise:

$ pip install dltn_checker

Examples with the Built In Argument Parser

  1. Check for bad DC records in an entire OAI-PMH feed.

$ python run -e http://my-oai-endpoint:8080/OAIHandler -m oai_dc
  1. Check and harvest good DC records from an entire OAI-PMH feed.

$ python run -e http://my-oai-endpoint:8080/OAIHandler -m oai_dc -H True
  1. Check and harvest good xoai records from a specifc set.

$ python run -e http://my-oai-endpoint:8080/OAIHandler -m xoai -s my_awesome_xoai_set -H True
  1. Check and harvest good MODS records from an entire provider in Repox.

$ python run -e http://my-oai-endpoint:8080/OAIHandler -m MODS -p CrossroadstoFreedomr0 -H True

Examples using the OAIChecker Class from dltnchecker

Check a set to see if there are any bad files in a set.

from dltnchecker.harvest import OAIChecker
request = OAIChecker("https://dpla.lib.utk.edu/repox/OAIHandler", "crossroads_sanitation", "MODS")
request.list_records()
print(request.bad_records)

By default, this will try to download the good files to a directory called output. If you don’t want to download, you need to pass an additional parameter called harvest and set to False.

from dltnchecker.harvest import OAIChecker
request = OAIChecker("https://dpla.lib.utk.edu/repox/OAIHandler", "crossroads_sanitation", "MODS", harvest=False)
request.list_records()
print(request.bad_records)
