SCAR Antarctic Digital Database (ADD) Metadata Toolbox - Adding new collections

Follow this workflow to create new collections to group items.

Note: Items to be shown in the collection need to have already been added.

Overview

This sequence diagram shows how the overall process to add and view a new collection:

1. a JSON file defining the collection, and the items it contains, is imported into the metadata editor
2. collections are built as static HTML pages
3. static HTML pages are published to the static site
4. visitors can access the new collection page through the static site

Steps

1. run collections import
2. run site build-collections
3. run site publish
