[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Order of events for 1.5.0

Alston,

I'm a bit late to the party, but I'd also be interested in some info on the work-around. I'm not sure where the barcode information is stored in the database. I imagine it's a string and only has to be unique, but I'm not quite sure where to start or if there are any other limitations.

I have a repository with hundreds of thousands of resources that isn't making a good transition to 1.5.0, and I'd like to see if unique barcodes make any difference.

Thank you,

Alston,

I for one am interested in the workaround if you wouldn't mind sending it along!

Noah,

My IT guy was able to autogenerate barcodes for everything in our whole AS instance directly in the backend of the database so that we did not have to run the plugin on individual resource records; it would have been A LOT of resource records.  Then he upgraded the data to 1.5 on a test server and the data seems fine.  Perhaps this work-around could be useful to you as well? I can have him send more info if you'd like.

Hi Chris,

Is it possible to run the barcoder plugin over all resource records at once? I'm only seeing the option to select one resource record at a time.

Thanks,
-Noah

Hi,



Yes, it's :


1.       Migrate from AT into 1.4.2
2.       Run barcoder plugin
3.       Update to 1.5.0



The barcoder plugin<https://github.com/archivesspace/barcoder> makes fake "barcodes" for containers based on the top level Archival Object + indicator 1 + type. The idea is that some institutions don't have unique identifiers for containers...for example, the have multiple box 1 in a collection ( like "Correspondence : Box 1" and "Financial Records: Box 1" ).

Does that make sense?



b,chris.





best, Chris.

The barcoder plugin<https://github.com/archivesspace/barcoder> is a tool that some repositories will need to use to help prepare their data for migration into 1.5.0, but it will depend on the current state of your barcodes. Hopkins falls into the category that will need it; see the following guide, under Preparation: https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/UPGRADING_1.5.0.md

What is the 'barcodes plugin' ?

Thanks Chris. So let me just confirm a more granular order of events:



1.       Migrate from AT into 1.4.2

2.       Run barcoder plugin

3.       Update to 1.5.0



Or is it:



1.       Migrate from AT into 1.4.2

2.       Update to 1.5.0

2.       Run barcoder plugin

Hi Valerie,



The migrators have not been updated to run against v1.5.0, so you will have to migrate to a previous aspace version then upgrade.



I'm not sure what it would take to upgrade the migrators, since the person who wrote them is no longer on the project.



Definitely let us know if you have any questions...



best, Chris.

Great news regarding this progress, and I am seriously grateful for documentation on how to prepare. I would like to inquire about the order of events for migrating into 1.5.0.



We are a repository still in AT and we have not migrated into AS yet. We are running 1.4.2 as our test instance. We do not have barcodes associated with our containers, and our Box 1's do repeat. What would be the order of events (I've made two guesses below)? And don't worry, I haven't put in steps like "backup AS", etc, and I will be testing, I just need to know what events to test in what order.



Would it be:



1.       Update to 1.5.0

2.       Migrate from AT into 1.5.0

3.       Run barcode plugin



Or:

1.       Migrate from AT into 1.4.2

2.       Run barcode plugin

3.       Update to 1.5.0





Thank you for any clarification.



-Valerie
