The build process in Step 5 the Compile and deploy step created a file called example.runtime.properties
in your VIVO home directory (specified by vitro.home
in the build.properties
file). Rename this file to runtime.properties
, and edit the file to suit your installation, as described in the following tablebelow.
These properties are loaded when VIVO starts up. If you want to change these properties at a later date, you will need to restart Tomcat for them to take effect. You will not need to repeat Step 5repeat the Compile and deploy step.

installations make their RDF resources available for harvest using linked data. Requests for RDF resource URIs redirect to HTML or RDF representations as specified by the client. To make this possible, VIVO's default namespace must have a certain structure and begin with the public web address of the VIVO installation. For example, if the web address of a VIVO installation is "http://vivo.example.edu/" the default namespace must be set to "http://vivo.example.edu/individual/" in order to support linked data. Similarly, if VIVO is installed at "http://www.example.edu/vivo" the default namespace must be set to "http://www.example.edu/vivo/individual/" * The namespace must end with "individual/" (including the trailing slash).Vitro.defaultNamespace | ||

The temporal graph visualization can require extensive machine resources. This can have a particularly noticable impact on memory usage if
| ||||
visualization.temporal | enabled | |||
The temporal graph visualization is used to compare different organizations/people within an organization on parameters like number of publications or grants. By default, the app will attempt to make its best guess at the top level organization in your instance. If you're unhappy with this selection, uncomment out the property below and set it to the URI of the organization individual you want to identify as the top level organization. It will be used as the default whenever the temporal graph visualization is rendered without being passed an explicit org. For example, to use "Ponce School of Medicine" as the top organization: visualization.topLevelOrg = http://vivo.psm.edu/individual/n2862 | ||||
visualization.topLevelOrg | http://vivo-trunk.indiana.edu/individual/topLevelOrgURI | |||

Tell VIVO to generate HTTP headers on its responses to facilitate caching the profile pages that it creates. This can improve performance, but it can also result in serving stale data. Default is false if not set. For more information, see the VIVO wiki page: Use HTTP caching to improve performance | ||||

Show only the most appropriate data values based on the Accept-Language header supplied by the browser. Default is false if not set. | ||||
RDFService.languageFilter | false | |||
Force VIVO to use a specific language or Locale instead of those specified by the browser. This affects RDF data retrieved from the model, if RDFService.languageFilter is true. This also affects the text of pages that have been modified to support multiple languages. | ||||
languages.forceLocale | en_US | |||
A list of supported languages or Locales that the user may choose to use instead of the one specified by the browser. Selection images must be available in the i18n/images directory of the theme. This affects RDF data retrieved from the model, if RDFService.languageFilter is true. This also affects the text of pages that have been modified to support multiple languages. | ||||

On the VIVO home page, display a global map highlighting the geographical focus of foaf:person individuals. The default is enabled . | ||||
homePage.geoFocusMaps = enabled | enabled | |||
MultiViews for foaf:person profile pages. VIVO supports the simultaneous use of a full foaf:Person profile page view and a "quick" page view that emphasizes the individual's own webpage presence. Implementing this feature requires an installation to develop a web service that captures images of web pages or to use an existing service outside of VIVO, usually for a small fee. The default is disabled . | ||||
