Minutes
- Announcements
- OCFL released, minor updates, beta not likely to change much
- Peter: Discrepancy between terminology section OCFL object and in section 3, it seems to imply in not-normative text that the id be a URI, then later it is a "should" be a URI. Should either not say that it is a URI, or make it a MUST in the normative section about inventories. Will raise in the OCFL channel
- 5.0.2 release went well.
- Travis svg PR
- Going ahead and merging, difference isn't too obvious
- Upcoming design meeting
- Old and new use cases distilled into short list of high level use cases
- What is Dynamic scalability? Avoid performance loss from scale. Are we intending to include clustering/sharding concepts
- John Hopkins will be adding a bunch of use cases soon.
- Includes object validation use cases, such as verifying resource requirements and that datastreams are present
- Andrew: How can we facilitate fedora caring about the shape of the objects?
- Peter: https://www.w3.org/TR/shacl/ could view this like an ACL situation, link headers to identify constraints doc for container and children, have a service which goes through and validates resources against this.
- Could be an on-request service, or on update (but would be challenging since it may take multiple requests to reach a valid state)
- John Hopkins would be okay with on-request
- OCFL, think about how to structure OCFL if every resource mapped to an OCFL object.
- Status of fcrepo-camel-toolbox updates
- Has there been any intent to move away from OSGI into standalone jar file? There had been previous discussion, hadn't come up recently.
- Ben has been using it in a webapp in a jetty container - will check to see if anything relevant from this approach
- Would be helpful to have a version that is a standalone jar, and a wrapper on for it to put in OSGI
- Jared going to continue looking at this.
- Import/export
- Andrew has been using set from a sprint a while back
- Imported with fcrepo restore, put 16000 resources in. Then exported it, then ran verifier over this set.
- Blew away repo, put repo in relaxed mode, did the import which worked, then ran the verifier which failed, some missing rdf:types
- ArgParser class line:546 in master has an curly bracket issue in formatter
- PR has a lot of commits, andrew doesn't appear to be able do a local squash.
- It is a difficult PR review, intent is to do some more testing then get it merged in
- Redirect to a 4.x maintenance branch, Andrew is going to create that branch.
- Pull out some improvements that are applicable to 5.x
- Ben might try fcrepo backup on hyrax repo, see if its possible to share
- Revisit Next Generation Repositories
- Important that we, in the Fedora community, be involved in next generation repos conversation
- Identify which aspects are appropriate or not for Fedora
- People are encouraged to give it a read, provide feedback
- Fcrepo-1889
- Peter will take a look at this, run tests, get an idea of where we stand on this issue.
