Pack: Metadata Management

Description:

This workflow generates ePrints XML import files with data set metadata for the FLOSSmole project. It reads in an input file generated from a Notre Dame SourceForge dump SQL query and uses regular expressions to parse the filename for the data set's source repository, download URL, and basic description. It also translates the epoch date into a sql format suitable for import, and the file size from bytes into larger units, e.g. GB, MB, etc. These data are inserted into an XML eprint record template (specific to the FLOSSmole ePrints repository configuration at wp.floss.syr.edu) and the individual eprints are aggregated into an XML import file.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure that I can provide the input file due to license restrictions. I can provide the SQL query, however, so that anyone who has signed a license agreement for access to the ND SourceForge data can retrieve the same input:

SELECT f.filename, f.file_id, f.file_size, f.post_date FROM sf0508.frs_file as f, sf0508.groups as g WHERE g.unix_group_name = 'ossmole' AND f.group_id=g.group_id ORDER BY f.post_date

Description:

This workflow generates DOI record files for deposit, using data set metadata for the FLOSSmole project. It reads in an input file generated from a SQL query from an eprints database, and transforms the parts of the source file as necessary to create a comprehensive DOI deposit record. It also generates DOIs for the data sets. These metadata are inserted into an XML record template (based on the std-doi.xsd schema) and the individual resources are aggregated into a single file.

Description:

This workflow generates additional files required for handling DOI creation: the DOI URL mapping required for the DOI deposit, and a set of sql update statements to insert the DOIs into an eprints database.

Note that it is extremely important for this workflow to use the same CSV file as was used with the DOI record generator, as well as the same seed number.
