CGSpace Submission Guidelines

A set of scripts to read submission-forms.xml from DSpace and generate documentation about metadata and controlled vocabularies. This is used as guidance for programmatic submission to the CGSpace repository.

You can see the website here: https://ilri.github.io/cgspace-submission-guidelines

Requirements

Requires the following on the host machine:

• Python 3.10+ and poetry
• Node.js v16 and npm
• Hugo

Preparation

Initialize the Python virtual environment with poetry:

$ poetry install --no-root

Install dependencies with npm and build the static CSS and JavaScript assets:

$ npm install
$ npm run build

Usage

Make sure the Python virtual environment is active and then run parse-input-forms.py to extract and process the DSpace metadata and controlled vocabularies:

$ poetry shell
$ ./util/parse-input-forms.py -i ~/src/git/DSpace/dspace/config/submission-forms.xml -c ~/src/git/DSpace/dspace/config/controlled-vocabularies --clean

Generate the documentation site using Hugo:

$ hugo

You can view a local development version using hugo serve. The site will be available on: http://localhost:1313/cgspace-submission-guidelines/
