Changes in SkylightUI<\/h2>\n

Changes to skylight to make the authority control more generic rather than
\nspecific to dctitle<\/p>\n

A more generic label for authority control can be specified using <<search URL>>.xml?field=<<label>>
\nwhich returns a list of records with (label match, record url) information.<\/p>\n

For example, a search on\u00a0http:\/\/redicdev.edina.ac.uk:8145\/skylightui\/search\/microscope.xml?field=dctitle<\/a><\/p>\n

would give the following results to feed into dspace (or any external entity) for authority control<\/p>\n

<records>
\n<numhits>1<\/numhits>
\n<record>
\n<dctitle> Nanoscope I <\/dctitle>
\n<url> http:\/\/skylightURL\/record\/<<recordid>> <\/url>
\n<\/record
\n<\/records><\/code><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Changes in Dspace<\/h2>\n

Additional classes have been added to dspace\/dspace-api\/src\/main\/java\/org\/dspace\/content\/authority to
\nsupport the SkylightUI querying protocol as well as provide the authority control feature in dspace
\nSubmission\/Admin UI.<\/p>\n

org\/dsapce\/content\/authority\/SkylightAPIProtocol class supports the querying of skylight UI for search
\nresults. The results are parsed and then fed into the submission\/admin UI for lookup\/suggest.<\/p>\n

org\/dspace\/content\/authority\/SkylightEquipmentTitle class defines the label on which the authority control
\nfeature is supported and needs to be added to teh choice authority plugin in the dspace configuration.
\n(In this case, our equipment names are mapped onto dc.title, hence we are more focussed
\non dctitle, but again this can be configured in any relevant fields)<\/p>\n

Finally, the lookup\/suggest feature can be configured in the dspace.cfg file as follows:<\/p>\n

plugin.named.org.dspace.content.authority.ChoiceAuthority = \\
\norg.dspace.content.authority.SkylightEquipmentTitle = ETitle<\/p>\n

choices.plugin.dc.title = ETitle
\nchoices.presentation.dc.title = suggest
\nauthority.controlled.dc.title = true<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
