Introduction

This documentation will help you deploy and configure the RIOXXv2 Application Profile for DSpace 3.X, 4.X and 5.X. The patch has been implemented in a generic way, using a configurable crosswalk. This means that changes to your existing DSpace installation are kept to the strict minimum. If you have customized your DSpace submission forms, metadata registries or OAI Crosswalks, it is possible that the default patches can't be applied to your codebase.

Areas of DSpace affected by the RIOXX patch

Following areas of the DSpace codebase are affected by the RIOXX patch:

  • Metadata Registries: a new RIOXX metadata registry will be added with a number of new fields. This does not affect your existing metadata schema's or items
  • OAI Endpoint: a new RIOXX endpoint will become available in your OAI-PMH interface, in order to allow external harvesters to harvest your repository metadata in RIOXX compliant format.
  • SWORD V2 Endpoint (DSpace 5.7 RIOXX patch and later only): The SWORD V2 ingest will be improved to allow for RIOXX compliant SWORD V2 ingests into DSpace.

It is important to realize that your existing item metadata and item display pages will NOT be modified as part of the RIOXX patch.

Areas of DSpace that have to be manually configured after applying the patch

Submission forms: the configuration file that defines your submission forms, input-forms.xml needs to be be extended with a number of new entry options.

Because the vast majority of institutions makes at least small tweaks to the submission forms, there is no opportunity to apply a patch to a standardized file. A template submission form file where the new RIOXX fields are highlighted can be found on Github:

https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX/blob/atmire-DEV/dspace/config/input-forms.xml See rioxxterms.* fields + value pairs + dcterms.dateAccepted

Metadata mapping

Before diving into the process of installing the RIOXX patch, it is crucial that you take note of the specific DSpace=>RIOXX metadata mapping that this patch implements. Your use of the different dc and dcterms fields in DSpace may be different than a standard installation, in which case you may need to do some additional activities before or after applying the patch.

The following table lists the different metadata elements, according to the order specified in http://rioxx.net/v2-0-final/.
The DSpace metadata column indicates where the corresponding RIOXX elements are stored in the DSpace metadata.

Existing fields from the dc and dcterms namespace were used where possible. A number of new fields were added in a dedicated rioxxterms metadata registry.

RIOXX metadata derived from DSpace Bitstream metadata

Because DSpace supports multiple files per attached metadata record, there is a split between information stored in the metadata record and information stored with the bitstreams.
For the following three fields, data is retrieved from the bitstream metadata for the bitstream indicated as "primary bitstream".

DSpace bitstream RIOXX element example DSpace value example RIOXX value
format dc:format application/pdf <dc:format>
application/pdf
</dc:format>
url dc:identifier https://example.com/dspace/bitstream/123456789/10/1/example.pdf <dc:identifier>

</dc:identifier>
embargo ali:free_to_read 2015-08-27 <ali:free_to_read start_date="2015-08-27">
</ali:free_to_read>

The RIOXX patch relies on the activation of the standard DSpace embargo functionality, and will ready the date for ali:free_to_read from the Resource policy set on the bitstream.
Currently, there is no specific support provided for end_date, assuming that once access is open, there is no specific use case for closing it again.

dc:source mandatory where applicable

The RIOXX specification states that dc.source is mandatory where applicable. The DSpace RIOXX patch does currently not enforce this: ISSN and ISBN are merely provided in the crosswalk when they are filled out.
In the standard DSpace submission form, ISBN and ISSN can be provided in a field for identifiers, that has a dropdown where the user first needs to select the identifier type.

If you are primarily collecting materials for which an ISSN applies, it is recommended to use a separate, custom field for ISSN that fills dc.identifier.issn, and make that field mandatory.

dc:type fallback for rioxxterms:type

There is a substantial overlap between the vocabulary for rioxxterms:type and the standard list for dc.type. To ensure all of the rioxxterms types are available to your submitters, it is recommended to put a specific rioxxterms.type field in place, that uses the specifc vocabulary.

However, in case rioxxterms.type is absent in your items, the OAI-PMH crosswalk provides a basic mapping between dc.type and rioxxterms:type for those types that can be unambiguously mapped:

DSpace type RIOXX type

fundref id for funders and orcid id for authors

Fundref DOI's for funders and ORCID id's for authors are NOT stored in the actual metadata value for the fields above. The metadata values only contain the string representations of funders and authors.
The RIOXX OAI-PMH crosswalks retrieves the ORCIDs for authors and fundref ids for funders from the DSpace SOLR Authority cache. This feature was added in DSpace 5, but was backported to DSpace 3.x and 4.x as part of the RIOXX patch.

Right now, this only affects institutions that use the XMLUI, since the JSPUI has no web UI yet for working with this authority cache. However, JSPUI institutions are still compliant with RIOXX as the string representations of funder and author are included in the RIOXX OAI-PMH crosswalk.

multiple funders and project

The item submission has been updated with a new step called projects. This step allows the submitter to associate his submission with one or more projects. Each of these projects is associated with a funder.

Using the 'Lookup Project' button the submitter can lookup projects that are already associated with another submission. When a project is selected, the associated funder will be automatically filled out as well.

if a project was not entered before, the submitter can create a new project. The new project's identifier must be filled out in the project input field and a funder to associate with the new project must be selected by using the 'Lookup Funder' button.

It is not possible to create a new funder during the submission, only existing funders can be selected. Refer to section 7. XMLUI only: Load Fundref authority data in the Patch Installation procedures to learn how to load funder data into DSpace.

configuration

The behaviour of this new submission step can be configured in dspace/config/modules/rioxx.cfg.

Property submission.funder.required is used to configure if at least one project funder pair should be filled in before continuing to the next submission step.

submission.funder.required = true

Property submission.funder.enableDcSponsorship is used to enable the addition of sponsorships or other sources of funding that do not provide a formal project or grant ID. If this property is enabled a free text field will be available in the project step. This free text field is not authority controlled.

It is also possible to configure a default project funder pair to be used when the submitter did not select any project funder pairs before finishing the projects step. Properties authority.default.funder, authority.default.funderID and authority.default.project must all three be filled in for the default project funder pair to be added automatically.

authority.default.funder = Default funder
authority.default.funderID = 10.99999/999999999
authority.default.project = Default project

authority.default.funder is the name of the default funder. authority.default.funderID is the ID of the default funder. authority.default.project is the name of the default project.

warning messages during submission

As described in the multiple funders and projects configuration there are different combinations that state if a funder is required, and what values to use as a default. Depending on what combination is configured, a specified warning message will be shown.

There following rules are currently in place to set these warning messages:

Combination Warning message
Project and funder combination is required, and a default funder/project is configured Caution: Without manually selecting a project or funder, this submission will receive project ID "{0}" and funder "{1}". NOTE:{0} and {1} are the project and funder configured in dspace/config/modules/rioxx.cfg
Project and funder combination is required, No defaults configured Caution: Without manually selecting a project or funder, this submission will not receive the required project ID and funder. Please make sure to complete these fields using the provided lookup.
Project and funder combination not required, No defaults configured Caution: Without manually selecting a project or funder, this submission will not receive a project ID or funder. If this submission is desired to be RIOXX compliant, please make sure to complete these fields using the provided lookup.

Edit funders page

An additional functionality to edit the funding of an already archived item has been added. This enables users with the proper rights to add or remove project and funder pairs from the item.

This can be accessed on the "Edit item" page present in the user's context. This contains a new "Item Funding" tab that encompasses the addition and removal of project/funder. This does not however contain the assumption that a default funder and project should be used when no project/funder pair is given. It is the end-users responsibility to ensure the integrity of the item's metadata.

The rest of this new page is used in the same way as the normal "ProjectStep" during submission. A user can select a project using the provided lookup button, which will also autocomplete the appropriate funder. If a user wants to enter a new project, he/she can enter one manually and add a funder using the lookup. (Empty values are prohibited during this addition as the default project/funder is disabled)

license reference ali:license_ref

The input forms customisations provide an input field to specify the license reference that is exposed by RIOXX. This input field uses metadata field rioxxterms.licenseref.uri to store the license reference.

The Creative Commons license submission step has been enabled to provide a fallback for the custom rioxxterms.licenseref.uri field. The license selected in this step is stored in metadata field dc.rights.uri.

If a DSpace item does not have a rioxxterms.licenseref.uri value, the dc.rights.uri value is used as fallback.

A DSpace item will not be available in RIOXX if both metadata fields rioxxterms.licenseref.uri and dc.rights.uri are empty.

date completion

The RIOXX specification requires dates to be in format YYYY-MM-DD. When a DSpace metadata field contains a shorter date in format YYYY-MM or YYYY, the RIOXX crosswalks will complete the date into the full format required by RIOXX.

Examples:

  • dc.date.issued "2015" in DSpace becomes "2015-01-01" when it is exposed in RIOXX as ali:license_ref:start_date.
  • dcterms.dateAccepted "2014-05" in DSpace becomes "2014-05-01" when it exposed in RIOXX as dcterms:dateAccepted

SWORD V2 configuration

The DSpace SWORD V2 interface is designed to work optimally with a specially designed XML schema allowing for unambiguous transmission of information such as licensing and funding.

An example XML input file can be found on https://github.com/jisc-services/Public-Documentation/blob/master/PublicationsRouter/sword-out/DSpace-RIOXX-XML.md.

The configuration for the RIOXX SWORD V2 mapping can be found in dspace/config/modules/swordv2-server.cfg.

The RIOXX metadata mapping configuration in this file can be recognized by the 'simplerioxx' prefix. This prefix is a reference to the Simple RIOXX ingester which is added to DSpace by the RIOXX patch to allow RIOXX compliant SWORD V2 ingests.

simplerioxx.dcterms.description = dc.description
simplerioxx.dcterms.publisher = dc.publisher
simplerioxx.dcterms.title = dc.title

Please note that if you are already using the simpledc mapping from the same configuration file for your SWORD deposit, they will still be considered unless they conflict with the simplerioxx mappings (if the same MD field is involved in both a simpledc mapping and a simplerioxx mapping, the simplerioxx mapping will have priority).

SWORD V2 Project/Funder ingestion

The XML schema allows for project/funder information to be supplied in two XML elements:

<rioxxterms:project funder_name="Some Funder Name" funder_id="Identifier-URL">Project/Grant-Number</rioxxterms:project>
<pubr:sponsorship>Funder: Some Funder Name, Grant no: Project/Grant-Number, Funder ID:  Identifier-URL </pubr:sponsorship>

rioxxterms:project
The RIOXX patch will attempt to match the rioxxterms:project details against funders in the fundref-registry (see https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX#XMLUI-only) first on funder_id and, as a fallback, on funder_name. If a match is found, the DSpace metadata fields rioxxterms.identifier.project, rioxxterms.funder and rioxxterms.funder.project will be filled with respectively the Project/grant-number, the Funder name, and the internal key registered in DSpace for this project. If no match can be found, the metadata field rioxxterms.newfunderprojectpair will be filled with the full details, with the intention that these are curated by a repository manager/reviewer and funder details manually added to the registry.

rioxxterms.newfunderprojectpair
This metadata field is created when no funder is found in the DSpace Funder Registry that matches that supplied via SWORD in the rioxxterms:project XML element. The value of this field is filled in with the information received via SWORD in this format:

funder-ID::funder-name::project-code

Note that it is possible to receive a project-code without any funder details. In that case this would be presented as:

null::null::project-code

pubr:sponsorship
The contents of the pubr:sponsorship element are always added to the Dspace metadata field dc.description.sponsorship as a textual description of the funding (without modification by the ingester) and will never be exposed on the RIOXX OAI endpoint.

SWORD V2 Author attributes

The XML schema allows for additional author attributes to be supplied in the XML and elements :

<pubr:contributor id="http://orcid.org/0000-0002-8257-7777" email="johnsmith@yahoo.com">Smith, John </pubr:contributor>
<pubr:author id="http://orcid.org/0000-0002-8257-4088" email="teva@yahoo.com">Vernoux, Teva </pubr:author>

Please note that these attributes will not be stored as metadata in the ingested item itself but, if the corresponding dspace fields (see SWORD V2 Rioxx mappings) are defined in your repository in the authority core, they will be stored as attributes of the author record within the SOLR core (which means that these attributes are available when using the author lookup in a manual submission for example).

SWORD V2 Example Ingestion with Curl

Step 1 : Ingest metadata

curl -v -i <*your DSpace repository*>/swordv2/collection/<*collection in which the item should be ingested*> --data-binary "@<*your xml MD file*>" -H "Content-Type: application/atom+xml" -H "In-Progress: true" --user "<*e-mail address submitter*>"

Step 2 : Ingest bitstreams

curl -v -i <*your DSpace repository*>/edit-media/3 --data-binary "@<*zip file containing the bitstreams*>" -H "Content-Type: application/zip" -H "Packaging: http://purl.org/net/sword/package/SimpleZip" -H "Content-Disposition:filename=<*zip file containing the bitstreams*>"  --user "<*e-mail address submitter*>"

Step 3 : Finish submission

curl -X POST -v -i <*your DSpace repository*>/edit/3 -H "In-Progress: false" -H "content-length: 0" --user "<*e-mail address submitter*>"

Patch Installation Procedures

Prerequisites

The RIOXX application profile has been released as a "patch" for DSpace as this allows for the easiest installation process of the incremental codebase. The code needed to install and deploy the RIOXX Application Profile can be found in the rioxx_changes.patch patch file, which needs to be applied to your DSpace source code.

Important note: Below, we will explain you how to apply the patch to your existing installation. This will affect your source code. Before applying a patch, it is always recommended to create backup of your DSpace source code.

In order to apply the patch, you will need to locate the DSpace source code on your server. That source code directory contains a directory dspace, as well as the following files: LICENSE, NOTICE , README , ....

For every release of DSpace, generally two release packages are available. One package has "src" in its name and the other one doesn't. The difference is that the release labelled "src" contains ALL of the DSpace source code, while the other release retrieves precompiled packages for specific DSpace artifacts from maven central. The RIOXX patches were designed to work on both "src" and other release packages of DSpace.

To be able to install the patch, you will need the following prerequisites:

  • A running DSpace 3.x, 4.x or 5.x instance.
  • Git should be installed on the machine. The patch will be applied using several git commands as indicated in the next section.

Obtaining a recent patch file

Atmire's modifications to a standard DSPace for RIOXX compliance are tracked on Github. The newest patch can therefore be generated from git.

DSPACE 5.0,5.1 https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX/compare/unmodified…stable_51.diff
DSPACE 5.2 https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX52/compare/unmodified…stable_52.diff
DSPACE 5.3-5.6 https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX53/compare/unmodified…stable_53.diff
DSPACE 5.7 https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX57/compare/unmodified…stable_57.diff

DSPACE 4.x https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX4x/compare/unmodified…stable_4x.diff

DSPACE 3.x https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX3x/compare/unmodified...latest.patch

Patch installation

To install the patch, the following steps will need to be performed.

1. Go to the DSpace Source directory.

This folder should have a structure similar to:
dspace
       modules
       config
       ...
pom.xml

2. Run the Git command to check whether the patch can be correctly applied.

Run the following command where needs to be replaced with the name of the patch:

git apply --check <patch file>

This command will return whether it is possible to apply the patch to your installation. This should pose no problems in case the DSpace is not customized or in case not much customizations are present.
In case, the check is successful, the patch can be installed without any problems. Otherwise, you will have to merge some changes manually.

3. Apply the patch

To apply the patch, the following command should be run where is replaced with the name of the patch file.

git apply --whitespace=nowarn --reject <patch file>

This command will tell git to apply the patch and ignore unharmful whitespace issues. The --reject flag instructs the command to continue when conflicts are encountered and saves the corresponding code hunks to a .rej file so you can review and apply them manually later on. Before continuing to the next step, you have to resolve all merge conflicts indicated by the .rej files. After solving the merge conflicts, remove all the .rej files.

4. Rebuild and redeploy your repository

After the patch has been applied, the repository will need to be rebuild.
DSpace repositories are typically built using the Maven and deployed using Ant.

Specifically for DSpace 3 and DSpace 4, it is important to know that the database changes to add the rioxx fields to the metadata registry, are called in the "update_registries" ant target. This ant target is part of "ant update". However, it is not part of "ant fresh_install".

If you are not seeing the fields in your registry, you can import the rioxx fields manually by executing:

dspace/bin/dspace dsrun org.dspace.administer.MetadataImporter -f <dspace.dir>/config/registries/rioxxterms-types.xml -u

5. Restart your tomcat

After the repository has been rebuild and redeployed, the tomcat will need to be restarted to bring the changes to production.

6. Populate the RIOXX OAI-PMH end point

To Populate the RIOXX end point, used for harvesting, run the following command:

[dspace]/bin/dspace oai import -c

This will Populate the RIOXX OAI endpoint that will be available on

<server-url>/oai/rioxx?verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=rioxx

If you want to avoid multiple manual executions of this script during testing, you can always add it to your scheduled tasks (crontab), and have it execute every hour or every 15 minutes.
Do note that the more items your repository contains, the more resource intensive this task is. Be careful scheduling this task frequently on production systems! On production systems we still highly recommend a daily frequency.

7. XMLUI only: Load Fundref authority data

DSpace 5 comes with a new SOLR based infrastructure for authority control, originally used for storing authority data from ORCID. For RIOXX, this infrastructure was used to hold Fundref authority data.
Even though the SOLR core with authority data can be enabled for JSPUI, there is no support yet for lookup in this registry through the submission forms in JSPUI.

As the source, DSpace relies on the RDF file published by Crossref at:
http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/fundref_registry

More information about this file is available at:
http://help.crossref.org/fundref-registry

Download this file to your DSpace server.

The "PopulateFunderAuthorityFromXML" script will add new funders as authorities for inclusion in rioxxterms.project, where funder and project id are exposed.
If you are executing the script for the first time, your SOLR authority cache will be loaded with all funders present in the fundref export.
After that, you can use the same script when there is a new release of the fundref export. In this case, both new funders will be added and information from previously added funders will be updated.

To run the script:

./dspace dsrun org.dspace.scripts.PopulateFunderAuthorityFromXML -f {funder-authority-rdf}

arguments:
-f: The RDF XML file containing the funder authorities
-t: Test if the script works correctly. No changes will be applied.

Note: Using the above PopulateFunderAuthorityFromXML script is the only way to create funders in DSpace. If an item is ingested into DSpace, for example by using SWORD V2, and this item contains a funder project pair with a funder that does not yet exists in DSpace, then DSpace will not attempt to create this funder but will instead store the project funder pair in metadata field workflow.newfunderprojectpair.

8. Compatibility with the REF patch

The RIOXX patch is compatible with the REF patch (https://github.com/atmire/REF). Both are often installed at the same time. The following files are updated by both patches and require merge conflicts to be managed manually :

dspace/modules/xmlui/src/main/webapp/themes/Mirage/lib/xsl/custom/core/forms.xsl
dspace/modules/xmlui/src/main/webapp/themes/Mirage/lib/css/style.css

Configure Submission forms or other metadata ingest mechanisms

Now that the new fields are present in your metadata schema's, you have to ensure that these fields can be filled. If your institution is relying on manual entry using the DSpace submission forms, you can go over the template input-forms.xml file on Github to see how the different new RIOXX fields can be included:

https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX/compare/rc1...master

If you are relying on automated ingests using SWORD or integrations with your CRIS system, you will likely need to customize the mapping and integration with those systems. This is beyond the scope of the patch and this documentation.

Note that simply adding the new RIOXX fields to the existing DSpace fields may create confusion for your end users. For example, the DSpace default "sponsor" field is similar to the RIOXX specific project and funder linking. Likewise, the "File Description" field that DSpace offers in the file upload dialog, has a similar purpose than the RIOXX "version" field. It is recommended to go over your submission forms entirely to verify that it is clear for your end users which fields are used for which purpose. Possibly, you may want to remove or repurpose existing DSpace default fields.

Verification

RIOXX Metadata Registry

As an administrator, navigate to the standard DSpace administrator page "Registries >> Metadata".
On this page, you should be able to see the new RIOXX metadata schema. When clicking on the link, you should see the different fields in the metadata schema. This new registry shouldn't be empty.

Submission forms based on Atmire template

This verification assumes that you have modified your input-forms.xml based on Atmire's template on Github:

https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX/compare/rc1...master

Start the submission of a new item in a DSpace collection that uses our custom submission form config.
After the collection selection, a custom step is included to support adding multiple funders and project IDs. In this step you should be able to add this field:

  • rioxxterms:project: Funder lookup and project field

in the first screen of the next step, you should be able to find following new fields:

  • ali:license_ref: license URI and License start date
    • The RIOXX spec supports the provision of multiple license ref's and dates. In DSpace, we are currently only supporting a single license URL and a single date. If multiple usage licenses apply, it is recommended to pick the most open one.
  • dcterms.dateAccepted
  • rioxxterms:version
  • rioxxterms:version_of_record (DOI)

Note that the template input-forms.xml does not add every single field defined in RIOXX. For many of the fields declared as optional, you will need to modify the submission forms yourself. The standard DSpace submission forms already have an excess of different fields, this is why not all RIOXX optional fields were added by default. Even though these fields are not yet in the submission form they ARE being taken into account for the RIOXX OAI-PMH mapping. Please refer to the documentation of the mapping before enabling these fields in the submission form.

Following fields have to be included manually in the submission forms:

  • dc:coverage
  • dc:relation
  • rioxxterms:apc

Continue the submission and don't forget to attach a file in order to create your first RIOXX test item and verify that it is completely "archived" in the repository. You can check this by verifying if the item now appears in the list of "Recent Submissions" on the repository homepage.

OAI-PMH endpoint

Immediately after a new test item is available in the repository, it is NOT YET available in your OAI-PMH SOLR index.
Normally, you have a nightly scheduled task (cron job) that synchronizes the archived items in the repository, with the OAI-PMH index.

For your testing purposes, you will want to verify new test items immediately. To do this, you need to manually trigger the OAI indexing task that populates the RIOXX OAI-PMH endpoint, as described in step 6 of the installation process.

After you have done this, you should be able to see your newly archived RIOXX test item through the link:

<server-url>/oai/rioxx?verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=rioxx

If you don't see your item there, check the corresponding troubleshooting section below.

Rioxxterms:project

There is a discrepancy between the examples listed in http://rioxx.net/v2-0-final/ and with the XSD definition for the exposure of funder_name and funder_id at http://rioxx.net/schema/v2.0/rioxx/rioxxterms_.html#project

In the DSpace RIOXX OAI-PMH endpoint, we have chosen to follow the XSD and to expose the rioxxterms: namespace for the funder_name and funder_id attributes.

Troubleshooting

Errors during the Patch Installation process

If you are receiving errors similar to the message below, then you are most likely using the wrong directory (i.e., not the parent directory of your DSpace installation). Please make sure that the current directory contains a directory called "dspace", which contains (amongst others) the subdirectories "bin", "config", "modules" and "solr". If this is not the case, then you will most probably receive errors such as:

error: dspace/config/crosswalks/oai/xoai.xml: No such file or directory   
...

Another problem could occur if the DSpace installation has been customized in such a way that the RIOXX Application Profile patch cannot be applied with creating versioning conflicts with your own customizations. This will trigger errors similar to the message below:

...             
error: patch failed: dspace/pom.xml:62          
error: dspace/pom.xml: patch does not apply            
...                

RIOXX test items are not visible in OAI-PMH endpoint

The RIOXX OAI-PMH endpoint has been developed in such a way that it only exposes items that are RIOXX compliant. An item will not appear there as long as not all of the following mandatory fields are present in the item:

  • ali:license_ref
  • dc:identifier that directly links to the attached bitstream (This can be both the bitstream as provided to DSpace or a URI to the full text publication hosted elsewhere)
  • dc:language
  • dc:title
  • dcterms:dateAccepted
  • rioxxterms:author
  • rioxxterms:project
  • rioxxterms:type
  • rioxxterms:version

According to the specification, dc.source is mandatory where applicable (ISSN or ISBN). Currently, DSpace is not enforcing this in the OAI-PMH endpoint and will just expose ISSN or ISBN when they are present in the metadata.
Again, aside from these metadatafields, make sure that the item contains a bitstream (file), or a value in the rioxxterms.openaccess.uri that links to the full text publication hosted elsewhere. Metadata records without bitstreams/openacces URI will not be exposed through the RIOXX OAI-PMH endpoint.
