[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Example EAD export plugin

[Noah Huffman]

Hi Brian,

Here is a plugin that makes some minor changes to the EAD exporter, specifically the way digital objects are handled in the <dao> : https://github.com/noahgh221/archivesspace-duke-plugins/blob/master/plugins/duke-ead-exporter/backend/model/duke_ead_exporter.rb

This plugin definitely works in v1.3, but I haven't tested in later versions.

The plugin modifies a portion of the ead.rb file here:  https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/4e0b534a5673e18b63ff5e807ead82fb55556ee9/backend/app/exporters/serializers/ead.rb
To remove the @id attribute from the <container> tag, you'd probably need to create a plugin that overrides lines 383-407 in the file above: https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/4e0b534a5673e18b63ff5e807ead82fb55556ee9/backend/app/exporters/serializers/ead.rb#L392
Then, maybe commenting out line 391-393 would do it?

I'm curious why you're removing the @id attributes?

Does anyone have an ead export modification plugin they would be willing to share?

I want to be able to remove the id="" from <container> using a plugin to programmatically strip it, rather than doing it after-the-fact. But I haven't a clue where to find the original file that dictates exports to see how it works, or structuring the plugin to change that functionality.

Thanks,
