{Application to grab the asset view/download stats from the Brandeis Instittutional Repository and convert them to for uploading to BIR's replacement, Ex Libris Esploro.}, {9/11/2020}
_{ The goal of the application is to retreive the usage statistics from the current Brandeis Institutional Repository (DSpace) and it's Solr datastore.
The application iterates a specified number of times, grabbing a set (ex 1000) of records from the datastore using a REST API and then processes them to fit the Fedora format in the Ex Libris Esploro documentation. The application creates the country code from the IP address, the Unix time stamp from the ISO 8601 time stamp, and the fills in a default asset File ID. In the future a conversion for the UID from Solr to an ID understandable by Esploro. }_
- Make sure you have Node.js on your computer
- Clone the repo into a folder of your choice
- CD into that directory
- Open the file in your text editor of choice to make edits.
- Update the Solr URL index.js getSolrData & another necessary fields
- run node index.js in the command line
// Sample Solr query URL https://localhost:1234/solr/statistics/select?q=_%3A_&fq=isBot%3Afalse&rows=10&wt=json&indent=true
// Sample Solr search home page URL http://localhost:1234/solr/#/statistics/query
_{ To access the Solr REST API at our institution we need to be logged into the server so that may be another prcoess.
Look at the known bugs section for a tip on how to increase your document search size. }_
_{ The number of stats records in BIR is approaching 1.5 million which is well beyond what MacOS X has as the default. I used the command below to temporarily (reverts on a reboot) up the limits. I can do 250k, and it might be able to do more.
sudo launchctl limit maxfiles 1048576 350000
Note that since this uses sudo, you will be required to put in your system password.
If you want to make this permanent, you can try putting the command in ~/.bashprofile. I have not done this so I cannot speak to it's effectiveness. Consider it a starting point. }
