[fcrepo-dev] Request for Comment: IIIF Image API Proposal

Tom Cramer — 2012-05-12T01:23:54

The International Image Interoperability Framework (http://lib.stanford.edu/iiif) is an initiative driven by several major research and national libraries to enable the rich and robust delivery of digital images through common interfaces, and to spur the development of open source and commercial software solutions in this space.

The IIIF Working Group invites comment and feedback on a proposed API for the the delivery of images via a standard http request. The full specification can be found at:

http://library.stanford.edu/iiif/image-api

The IIIF Image API specifies a web service that returns an image in response to a standard http or https request. The URL can specify the region, size, rotation, quality characteristics and format of the requested image. A URL can also be constructed to request basic technical information about the image to support client applications.

The IIIF Image API was conceived of to facilitate systematic reuse of image resources, and enable their delivery through a diversity of software applications and environments, regardless of underlying technology platforms. The API is designed to be adoptable by any image repository or service provider, and can be used to retrieve static images in response to a properly constructed URL. We invite you to read this specification and provide us critical feedback.

Please send feedback to iiif-feedback-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw< at >public.gmane.org by June 22, 2012.

Once all feedback is reviewed and incorporated, we will release the specification for adoption.

If you would like to follow future IIIF-related developments, you may be interested in joining the initiative's announcements email list https://groups.google.com/d/forum/iiif-announce.

If you would like to participate in IIIF's development, and/or implement or consume the API for your image repository or image delivery software, we encourage you to join the IIIF discussion email list https://groups.google.com/d/forum/iiif-discuss.

With many thanks for your feedback,

The IIIF Working Group

[fcrepo-dev] m2e, generated classes and lifecyclemapping

frank asseg — 2012-05-11T14:45:36

Hola guys,

To get rid of eclipse errors the following additions to poms worked for me:

for CXF's generated classes the following helped:

in fcrepo-common/pom.xml i added the following as stated in the SO 
question at 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7160006/m2e-and-having-maven-generated-source-folders-as-eclipse-source-folders

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>

</plugin>



for the lifecycle mapping errors changing fcrepo-server/pom.xml 
according to this: 
http://wiki.eclipse.org/M2E_plugin_execution_not_covered#ignore_plugin_goal
did the trick

Re: [fcrepo-dev] fcrepo-1023 && null nodes

Chris Wilper — 2012-05-11T11:47:50

Hi Frank,

Using bound="false" when a result variable is unbound (null) is what
the old version of the SPARQL results format[1] required.

The latest version of the specification[2] says to omit the element
altogether, which means doing the null check a bit earlier in the
process so the whole element can be skipped.

[fcrepo-dev] fcrepo-1023 && null nodes

frank asseg — 2012-05-11T10:39:52

Hola guys!

When implementing a SparqleW3CTupleWriter for 
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/FCREPO-1023 in Trippi, which i 
basically copied from SparqlTupleWriter, i stumbled upon this null check in
https://github.com/fcrepo/trippi/blob/master/trippi-core/src/main/java/org/trippi/io/SparqlTupleWriter.java 
at line 55:

...
Node n = result.get(names[i]);
if ( n == null ) {
     m_out.println(" bound=\"false\"/>");
} else if ( n instanceof URIReference ) {
...

Im not quite sure how to handle this null checks in a Tuple Writer 
conforming to the docuemtnation at http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-sparql-XMLres/


Can you give me a hint on how to handle these null nodes?

[fcrepo-dev] Search both diacritics and non-diacritics

Frank Feng — 2012-05-08T14:43:51

Hi all,

I'm developing a fedora search interface, and want to search both with and
without diacritics, for instance, if I search 'revesz', it will response
both 'revesz' and 'révész'. I've tried to configure solr to use
ASCIIFoldingFilterFactory <http://t.co/qEWsS9ko> but cannot get it working.
Any suggestions would be appreciated and a working solr config file will be
very helpful.

thanks,

Frank

Thanks for your hint, I now switched it all back to fedoragsearch and the name of the index to FgsIndex, but I still got the problem. The locking itself occurs, when I update objects, which causes Fedora to create a lot of update messages. This in turn causes GSearch to lock up eventually. 

In the meantime I found another possible reason for the locking behaviour: I had both update mechanisms enabled, ie. Messaging and via REST. I have now disabled the update via REST and I haven't had any further locking errors since. Do you think this could be the cause for my troubles?

[fcrepo-dev] ANN: Fedora Office Hours

Chris Wilper — 2012-05-01T18:01:36

Hi all,

I've been thinking a lot lately about how best to serve the Fedora
developer community and have been impressed with the Office Hours
concept that Matt Zumwalt has been spearheading[1] in the Hydra
community. So I've decided to do something similar, starting this
week.

Here's how it will work:

Starting this Thursday, after the Fedora committer call, I'll be
spending the remainder of the business day ('till 5pm US Eastern time)
in the #duraspace IRC channel on Freenode. The main purpose will be to
support the work of Fedora committers, contributors, and integrators.
Got a dev question or just an idea you want to bounce off someone?
Stop by and let's talk about it.  As with all irc traffic in
#duraspace, public logs will be automatically made available at
http://irclogs.duraspace.org/

More specifics (and info about my availability, which will change if
I'm traveling, etc.) can always be found here:

https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/~cwilper/Fedora+Office+Hours

Hope to see you there!

- Chris

Re: [fcrepo-dev] My foxmlToSolr.xsl is breaking Tomcat

Remi Malessa — 2012-04-30T09:18:32

Hi Gert

I checked in oXygen and it is valid. Also, I've been working to sort out 
this error for a week or two now, so there is no
syntax errors, no worries.

It works when I run the transformation locally from oXygen against a 
Fedora object FOXML file.
It correctly goes to server an picks up all data from other objects  and 
datastreams.

The offending line is:


<xsl:variable name="articleText" 
select="document(concat('http://scifdev.llgc.org.uk:8080/mets_disseminators/gsearchGETDS/coordinates/', 
$pagePID, '/', $alto_articleNoRef))//articleText"/>

where

"http://scifdev.llgc.org.uk:8080/mets_disseminators/gsearchGETDS/coordinates/', 
$pagePID, '/', $alto_articleNoRef" is a call to my servlet.
The server works fine for other datastreams, or if called directly from 
a web browser.

If I uncomment the line , the Tomcat won't start.

Re: [fcrepo-dev] My foxmlToSolr.xsl is breaking Tomcat

Gert Schmeltz Pedersen — 2012-04-30T07:24:20

You may have syntax errors in your foxmlToSolr.xsl, in which case you will get log lines in the Tomcat log in catalina.out. Is there something there?

Re: [fcrepo-dev] FedoraGSearch locks and hogs file connections

Gert Schmeltz Pedersen — 2012-04-27T15:47:26

Hi Remi,

The variable time after a restart before the problems start indicates that it would be best to look at the operation(s) occurring just before the problems start, what does the log say there? I think that the gfindObjects operations, that you list log lines for, could hardly be responsible.

The requests from search engines, some with the old sort parameter AUTO? You have to explain how these relate to the problem.

I see in your code that you have renamed "fedoragsearch" to "indexer". Are you sure you have done this consistently? You may need to check carefully the fgsconfigFinal files. The problems with segmentation files and locks indicate that your configuration is not consistent.

Best
Gert

[fcrepo-dev] My foxmlToSolr.xsl is breaking Tomcat

Remi Malessa — 2012-04-27T11:03:55

Hi

In my current project I keep datastreams (METS, RELS-EXT, ALTO) as 
'Managed' content.
I created a Servlet  that fetches a datastream when requested, so in my 
foxmlToSolr.xsl I call the servlet
something like this:

<xsl:variable name="QueryString" 
select="concat('http://server:8080/servlet_path/datastream_name', $PID)"/>
<xsl:variable name="articleText" 
select="document($QueryString))/servletResponse/content/text()"/>

or:

<xsl:variable name="articleText" 
select="document(concat('http://server:8080/servlet_path/datastream_name', 
$PID)))/servletResponse/content/text()"/>

tried both...and It works fine with METS, RELS-EXT, but when I add a 
request for ALTO to the XSLT, Tomcat fails to start-up.

The last lines in the log are always:

16:27:35.870 [main] DEBUG org.apache.axis.AxisEngine - Exit: 
AxisEngine::init
16:27:35.871 [main] DEBUG o.a.a.s.DefaultAxisServerFactory - Exit: 
DefaultAxisServerFactory::getServer
16:27:35.871 [main] DEBUG o.a.axis.transport.http.AxisServlet - Exit: 
getEngine()

..and there are no obvious hints in the log, no errors, no exceptions.

It also fails to shut-down properly and gives "connection refused" 
error. Commenting out the line in the foxmlToSolr.xsl solves the problem.

I had exactly the same problem when I tried to do <xsl:if statement> 
with document() in GSearch.
It was something like this:

<xsl:if test="document(concat('http://server:8080/servlet_path/METS', 
$PID)))/METS:mets/< at >PROFILE='profile_name' and  
document(concat('http://server:8080/servlet_path/METS', 
$PID)))//METS:agent='agent_name'">

It was breaking the Tomcat until I changed it to:

<xsl:variable name="METSprofile" 
select="document(concat('http://server:8080/servlet_path/METS', 
$PID)))/METS:mets/< at >PROFILE='profile_name'"/>
<xsl:variable name="Test" 
select="document(concat('http://server:8080/servlet_path/METS', 
$PID)))//METS:agent='agent_name'"/>

<xsl:if test="$METSprofile='profile_name' and $jingestTest='true'">


With ALTO datastream I had changed the Servlet to fetch only text, not 
the whole ALTO datastream. It still breaks the Tomcat.

I'm running out of ideas. Help much appreciated.

Cheers

Remi

sorry for the late rely, I subscribed this list in digest-mode, and your message only got delivered today.



The time after a restart before the problem occurs ist quite variable. From a few minutes to several days. 

Activities are request like this:

Among them are a lot of requests from search engines (Google, Bing, etc).

Some of them somehow still use the old sort parameter AUTO which results in an error:
FEDORA_AUX_SUBJECT_ATTRIBUTES=

[fcrepo-dev] FedoraGSearch locks and hogs file connections

Christian Rohrer — 2012-04-19T07:05:10

Hi list

I have recently upgraded our Fedora installation to 3.5 and GSearch (using Lucene) to 2.4.1.

Since this upgrade GSearch causes us problems. It keeps opening connections to the segmentation files, which remain open until the OS limit is reached, after which a restart of Tomcat is needed in order to close all open connection of GSearch. Has anybody else observed this behavior?

The other unusual thing (might be related?) are locks that throw error messages in the form:

dk.defxws.fedoragsearch.server.errors.GenericSearchException: Thu Apr 19 09:02:45 CEST 2012 IndexWriter new error indexName=ChorIndex :

[fcrepo-dev] Fedora OAI-ORE exporter

alessia bardi — 2012-04-12T13:20:23

Dear all,

I am a PhD student and fellow researcher at CNR (Pisa, Italy).
My fields of interest include digital library and solution for data
interoperability.
I am currently investigating on solutions for OAI-ORE exports in Fedora
repositories.

I am aware of the oreprovider component (http://oreprovider.sourceforge.net/)
but it seems that the project is in beta version since 2008 and I could not
find any other tool on the offical Fedora web site.

Do you know any other software tool/plugin that extends Fedora with an
OAI-ORE exporter?
Links to softwares, documentation and articles or papers (even about on
going work) are welcome...

Thank you very much,

Alessia Bardi

Ok, I'm working on the merge of fcrepo-452 into fcrepo-1067.  I'll
have to break for a meeting later, but will keep you posted.
