Table Schemas

Content provider (source)

In order to use the multi sub-command, add a row for each collection to the template source_collections.csv. For a description of what should go in each field, see the "positional arguments" and "optional arguments" sections of the following command's output:

python3 source.py multi --help

Also, note the following:

• resource-dir, metadata-dir, and no-set-param are optional (you may leave these fields blank in order to use the defaults)
• anything can go in the no-set-param field (a blank field is interpreted as false, and a non-blank field as true)

Content aggregator (destination)

In order to use the destination-side wrapper script, a local TinyDB instance should be created, with rows following this schema:

field name	type	description
collection_key	string	unique identifier for the set of resources (collection)
institution_key	string	unique identifier for the institution
resourcelist_uri	string	URL of the collection's ResourceList (or ResourceListIndex)
changelist_uri	string	URL of the collection's Changelist (or ChangeListIndex)
url_map_from	string	portion of each resource's URL that should be mapped to a local filesystem path
file_path_map_to	string	local filesystem path where each resource will be put upon synchronization
new	boolean	whether or not a baseline synchronization has been performed on the collection
