Metacat

Revised the registry guide to include descriptions of the new fields, and
made some minor formatting changes.

Added studyExtent and samplingDescription fields to the registry to accomodate
Sandy's request for a temporalDescription field. This is a little more than
she wanted, but it was needed to satisfy EML minimum requirements.

Removed obsolete SRB support files that are no longer used.

Added taxonomic coverage and authority fields, and fixed a bug in reentry
with the methods fields. Now we are collecting information on all of the
additional fields Sandy requested except for a general temporal description,
which doesn't fit neatly in EML. Will need to consider how to accomodate...

Added the ability to describe taxonomicCoverage to the registry. This
allows an arbitrary number of species or other taxa to be listed, and the
editing form can dynamically grow through a simple javascript approach
(also used in Methods). Need to test thoroughly, and need to test on...

Added geographic description to the fields of data collected, as it is
a required field and was being improperly defaulted to an empty string in the
XML document. This is a new field for all registries.

Modifications to add "Methods" collection to the data registry, and to
make the forms HTML 4.0.1 valid (in an attempt to figure out some of
the rendering and layout oddities I'm seeing).

Changed "Document ID" to "ID" which is mroe appropriate for data packages.

New formatting and text for the NCEAS data registry.

Further changes to the registry scripts to support the NCEAS registry
with access to the project list fromthe admindb. Also, fixed a bug with
the script where creators were getting duplicated in the editing process
accidentally.

Configuration file for NCEAS registry.

Adding style files for the new NCEAS skin for metacat, which includes
files needed for the NCEAS data repository.

Updated registry further for NCEAS-specific needs. Confirm data template
now handles new wg field. Still need to write WG metadata into EML document.

Additional work on the NCEAS/AdminDB integration. Working Groups now
presented as a dropdown box for multiple selection. Need to write the
info to the XML file now and handle it in confirmation template.

Preliminary changes to support the NCEAS data registry connection to the
AdminDB to retrieve project lists.

Improvements to the OBFS stylesheet, especially for EML display. Now we
import the eml_xsl.css stylesheet and override several of its templates.

Relocated to metacat/lib/harvester

took out h2 tags, added valign=top to TD containing logo, and added missing quotes on a link target=top

deleted harvesterConfiguration.xsd. This has been replaced by harvestDocument.xsd now found in metacat/lib/harvester and metacatHarvesterERD.vsd (/metacat/docs/dev/harvester) which models the database tables to be added to metacat.

This is the harvesterDocument.xsd. It will be used to validate harvestDocument.xml documents.

moved document to metcat/test/harvest directory

This is a sample of a harvest document.

This is an xml schema that describes the harvest document. The harvest document provides a metacat docid, a document type and a url for "get" ing the eml document.

Enabled stylesheet parameters to be passed through metacat even when the
'query' function is called. Previously, query would interpret all
parameters except a few hardcoded ones to be pathexpressions that should be
built into a squery. Now, metacat.properties contains a new configuration...

Updates that allow registry script to update the lastid field more efficiently
by calling the metacat 'getlastdocid' function for a given scope. Also some
debugging support added, and a bug where the error message was inproperly
saved across calls to metacat, resulting in spurious error messages.

New build system that creates a war file and deploys it to tomcat. Also
updated the web.xml files so that a better servlet path is used. Now, by
default, the servlet path will be: /knb/metacat (as opposed to the
prior servlet path which was /knb/servlet/metacat and depended on the...

Moved the metacat.properties file from the jar file to now be located in
the tomcat context directory in WEB-INF. Now the metacat configuration is
editable in place. This change depends on a new Options.java class in the
utilities module, so be sure you do a "clean" build in metacat so that you...

Harvester forms to support single file upload to metacat.

Fixed links to ldapweb to include the cfg param for proper styling.

removed search box from header

corrected image path

missed an edit when fixing the bug whereby form names aren't allowed to contain hyphens

bug fix: added code to strip brackets and hyphens from form names in results page

made results page table header into <th> so we can apply a different css style to eml stylesheet subheaders. added whitespace above& below section headers

fixed iframe tag- had multiple closings. Also added text for browsers that can't display iframes

cleaned up css greatly by importing eml css and knb css

knb.css now impots common eml css file - still need to fix layout in eml display tho' - something is being overridden and messes up alignment

changed knb skin index page to forward to knb site and include any user params in url. changed resultset.xsl so qformat is handled properly in posts. changed build file to copy default.css from eml checkout to style/common so other skin-specific css can import it if reqd

added JS to maintain ?name=value url params thru' redirect

added search gif used in default homepage

This is the merge from the branch WEB_UI_REDESIGN_BRANCH back into the head.
The only files that have been removed are those in lib/style/eml2; other files
that have been cvs removed (only from lib/ and lib/style) have been re-added
elsewhere (i.e. moved from one directory to another)....

A proposed configuration file format for the metacat harvester. This format is a simple XML document that details the schedule for harvesting, the user under which harvested documents should be owned, and the list of documents to be harvested,

superseded - now these elements are pulled in from the knb website

new include files for metacat web pages - header and search box. Still need to remove hard-coded context uris

Get rid of etral http:// in parties'url

Added a browse stylesheet that indexes data sets by keyword, creator, and
organization, all on one page. Use style=browse to access.

Some minor formatting improvements to keyword index, and change style
setting to style=keywords to access.

Added a new stylesheet and style-set that allows one to display all of the
keywords from a query on metacat in a sorted, unique list. Each keyword
is a link to a metacat query that returns all of the data packages that
reference that keyword. Use style=browse to invoke this stylesheet on a...
