Using DogBiscuits in a Hyrax Application

Pick Lists and Autosuggest

Creators is an auto-suggest using internal 'Person' objects in a Concept Scheme called 'people'. The field accept text and a Person object will be created from any text entered as the 'rdfs_label' and will be added to the people Concept Scheme so that it appears in the auto-suggest from then on. If the entered text matches the structure of an ORCID, an orcid lookup is performed and a Person object created with info derived from ORCID.

Qualification name and qualification label are drop down lists that use File-Based authorities, drawing their terms from a YML file in the app.

Departments is also a drop-down, but, like Creator, it's terms come from a Concept Scheme (called 'departments').

Display

The display is configured to show the labels rather than URLs (in the File-Based Authorities) or IDs (for Creator, Departartment etc.)
