[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Code4Lib 2016 events

[Chris Fitzpatrick]

Hi,


Great. Maybe we can plan some kind of meetup to do some coding work as well...


I am seeing a convergence of your request and the others for the OAI-PHM responder. I like your idea, since it I think most of it is actually pretty much already built in the indexer, since it polls the Aspace backend for created/updated/deleted records and triggers some actions to be passed off to another API ( i.e Solr's )


I think it would be pretty easy to essentially do something else, like "when a record is created, POST the JSON to this URI". Or  maybe something slightly more sophisticated, like push it messaging queue like Redis or RabbitMQ, that a second service (like a microservice ) could listen to and consume messages.


What would a use case be? Like pushing to Blacklight or Primo or Ebsco?


best,chris.

Hey Chris,
I'll be at Code4Lib too, although I'm already committed to other sessions for the preconference.

One idea we've been batting around here is some sort of messaging system (inspired by Github's webhooks [1]) which would allow authorized users to activate customizable HTTP callbacks for events, for example creation, modification or deletion of a resource or component. It seems like people have taken a number of approaches to figuring out when data changes in AS, but as far as I know all of these involve some sort of regularly scheduled cron job that looks at the Solr index or makes a ton of API calls. It would be amazing if the system could send notifications out - I think it would allow for much more efficient and flexible integration with other systems.

Hi,


There was a question shortly before the holidays about some Aspace-related activities at Code4Lib this year in March.


I am planning on attending, and will be at the Code4Arc pre-conf <http://2016.code4lib.org/workshops/Code4Arc/> , which was a great session we had last year at C4L.

I am thinking of also signing up to lead a breakout session one of the days, and might put together something for a lighting talk.


Is anyone else planning on going? Are there some possible ideas that anyone has or would like to see if attending? We might be able to expand on the breakout, if there's critical mass to possibly meet more somewhere.



Best, Chris.
