What will be included in DSpace 7.0?

...

  1. A new User Interface based on Angular (to replace XMLUI and JSPUI). This work is going on in the "main" branch of https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular
    1. The goal of the new UI is to implement all major features of both XMLUI and JSPUI in a single, modern UI.
    2. NOTE: Some DSpace 6 XMLUI or JSPUI features have been delayed for either 7.1 or 7.2 release (see sections below). This decision was made to make 7.0 available as soon as possible.
  2. A refactored/enhanced REST API (using modern REST best practices). This work is going on in the "main" branch of https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace
    1. Additionally, a new REST Contract (describing all API interactions) is being written at https://github.com/DSpace/Rest7Contract
  3. A new Configurable Entities object model, which allows for the creation of new "typed" Items, and storing relationships between Items.  This feature will allow for tighter integration with external identifier systems (e.g. ORCID), current research information systems (CRIS), journal publishing systems, etc. This work was completed by the DSpace 7 Entities Working Group.
    1. Early technical documentation is available at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wEmHirFzrY3qgGtRr2YBQwGOvH1IuTVGmxDIdnqvwxM/edit
    Alignment with core recommendations from the COAR Next Generation Repositories Report (http://ngr.coar-repositories.org/).  Specifically, DSpace 7 will introduce two technologies deemed of highest priority by this report. (May not be available until DSpace 7.1)
    1. ResourceSync
      1. options to install alongside an existing DSpace 5.x or 6.x installation will also be made available
    2. Signposting

For much more information on the history behind these decisions, see DSpace 7 UI Project Plain Language Summary

  • General features

    • Ability to subscribe to email updates for a Collection (Manage Subscriptions)

  • Administrative features
    • Edit Item via Submission Form (easier to use Edit Item form)
    • Administrative Control Panel (similar to XMLUI)
    • Supervision Orders (similar to JSPUI)
    • Edit default deposit license from Admin UI (similar to JSPUI)
