[Archivesspace_Users_Group] customizing the MARC exporter

[Kevin Clair]

Thanks for this, it’s very helpful (especially since I was about to work on a custom MODS exporter for our digital objects that would need to use the user-defined fields).

Our custom work is all stashed in our local plugins, and can be found by the curious at https://github.com/duspeccoll/plugins_local/tree/master/backend/model.  -k

Hi Kevin-

We (Dartmouth) are having HM do some custom work for us around the same topic. Check out https://github.com/hudmol/dartmouth_udf_exports which allows adding custom mappings to both the EAD and MARC exports. It does not allow for suppressing fields, so if AS wants to map something to one field and you want it mapped to another, you'll wind up with the data in two different fields.

Hi Kevin,

I’m sorry - yes, the link I sent is for a customized importer, and you were asking about exporters.

The only relevant examples I know of are these:

https://github.com/archivesspace/yale-ead-exporter
https://github.com/helrond/aspace-labels

The same patterns should apply for Marc. You’ll most likely want to override methods in this class:

Hi Brian,

Thanks for that. Does this import MARCXML records that come from outside of ArchivesSpace?

What I was hoping to do is extend the current MARC export inhttps://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/exporters/models/marc21.rb to account for our local catalog rules, instead of our current method of doing that (which is a Perl script that downloads JSON from the API alongside the MARC export and adds the missing fields manually). This doesn’t look like quite the same thing, though I’m new to Ruby so I may be missing something…  -k

Hi Kevin,

Here is an example of a customized MARC to Accession converter plugin. I think this might help.

Hello,

I’m curious if anyone on the list has had any success with customizing the exports of MARCXML records for Resources in ArchivesSpace. I’ve seen the wiki post athttps://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=18088140 about customizing the EAD exports, but it looks like the MARC serializer only exports datafields and subfields that are populated in the MARC export model, which doesn’t seem to be something I can customize as a local plugin.

We have some local rules for populating the 001, 949, etc. fields in our catalog that I’d like to take care of in the ArchivesSpace export directly, rather than having to run the XMLs through MarcEdit or a Perl script as an intermediate step before we import them into our ILS. Any tips or sample code would be appreciated. thanks!

cheers,
