[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Common script repository?

Wed Mar 30 13:49:34 EDT 2016

Christine,

Thanks for this. Is there a concise summary somewhere of what ArchiveSpace resources and channels are publicly available, and which are restricted to members and/or ASpace governance groups? I am having a hard time grokking the current constellation—and it seems I might not be the only one.

Thanks,

- Tom

Not to sidetrack this discussion, but in case there is confusion here, most development and tech resources, including the ArchivesSpace wiki page mentioned in this thread, are not limited to members. The pages are public. (A Google search for "archivesspace plugins" brings up that wiki page as the first result.) That, of course, doesn't mean the current plugins page on the wiki is the best place to share these items. I'd prefer to have that page just point to a community-run repository on Github or somewhere else that the people doing the bulk of that dev work decide on and find easy to contribute to, since it sounds like the wiki isn't that place.

In the case of the wiki, anyone - member or nonmember - can request an account to edit community pages. In the case of the github documentation, anyone can join the archivesspace repository and submit a pull request to make the documentation better. There are people within the member community and program staff that have more responsibilities and editing/approval privileges than others, but most of the efforts themselves are open to all.

Just wanted to clarify that for people who may not realize. This is a great discussion and I'm looking forward to seeing what you decide.

100% agree.

I think development and tech stuff should be moved on the other side of the paywall.

Also interested - I think it needs to be somewhere that's more publicly accessible than the ASpace wiki (I think Github more or less qualifies, as there's no money/institutional barrier to making a PR or editing wiki.

Patrick,

                I was thinking of about this very thing this morning: where can I post some of my plugins or scripts to share with the larger community?

I personally like the Github org/repository idea.

Thanks,

Phil

Hi all,

Right before and during Code4Lib there was some talk about the best place to advertise the work different people have been doing with scripts related to ArchivesSpace, and the best way to collect or get the word out about the stuff we’re doing.

I will preface this with saying that I am aware of the Plugins and Scripts pages on AS found here (https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ADC/Plugins+and+Scripts<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__archivesspace.atlassian.net_wiki_display_ADC_Plugins-26-2343-3Band-26-2343-3BScripts&d=CwMFAg&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=_Mv1dY22K7jvT5MD7xjbvGVzRDOUMhx4WYcnPSIzYnE&m=oK4sZVbMfDUF13TMY2f2OJ48vfRt-dMChBXE042QBaI&s=VR-b29Pf-vKdhZ3l0DyhsLdrtqIgQtAQqOf78mvBqLE&e=>), but it doesn’t seem very comprehensive at all, and is primarily plugins. I just wanted to get the conversation started about the best way to get the word out and get people involved.

We could:
1.       Keep things the way they are, just be more vocal about advertising the wiki page to a wider audience
2.       Create a Github organization where people could add the repositories that they’re working on. We would need a couple of people managing the org and adding anyone that requests membership.
3.       Something else?

I really just wanted to get the conversation started. Does anyone else know a better way to share the work we’ve been doing with a wider community?
