1. Overview
The Fedora SIP Creator is a Java applet for preparing Submission Information Packages ("SIPs") for use with the Fedora Directory Ingest Service.
2. Installation
First, the applet must be compiled:
- Make sure you have a 1.4+ JDK and ant installed.
- Change to the base directory of the source distribution.
- Type
keytool -genkey -alias samplekey -storepass samplepass -keystore keystore and answer the prompts. This will generate a keystore file that will be used to digitally sign the applet jar file during the build.
- Type
ant dist. This will build the signed applet jar into the dist/ directory.
If desired, copy the content of the dist/ directory to a web-accessible location.
3. Use
- Point your browser to the
Test.html file. This can be loaded from a web server or directly from your local filesystem.
- In the "File Selection" tab:
- Click the "Open" icon and select the local directory containing the files you want to ingest.
- Check the specific directories and/or files to be ingested.
- In the "Metadata Entry" tab:
- Right click any file you want to add metadata to, answer any prompts and fill in any values.
- Double click any file whose MIME type you want to change. Initial MIME types for each file are guessed based on the extension and content.
- When finished, click the floppy disk "Save" icon, and enter a filename with a .zip extension.
- Upload the ZIP file to the Directory Ingest service
