[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Python ArchivesSpace scripting library

[Galligan, Patrick]

Thanks for all the feedback and offers of help!

I’m going to talk to Christine and Laney hopefully sometime this week, and then we can get started for real. I think Dave’s on the right track that the first thing would be to gather a corpus of examples/functionality that we’d like to include.

I’ll update everyone soon.

Thanks,
Patrick

This is an idea we've toyed around with as well--I'm sure one or more of us could contribute, too. Keep us posted!

Don't want to add any overhead to this but at one point late last year I recall a proposal from Max Eckard, Esmé, Sally V., et al. for an Awesome<https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome>-style list to house these kinds of projects. Establishing such a list and collecting the prior art there might be a good way to help set both projects in motion.

And +1, I can contribute.

I'm interested in this too. I was doing some python scripting just
this week (https://github.com/seth-shaw-unlv/small-stuff/blob/master/as-coll-mint/as_coll_mint.py#L85-L117),
if you want to throw that on the prior art pile.

Also for the prior art pile: I know the folks at the Rubenstein (Duke)
have also done a good deal of ArchivesSpace python scripting (see
http://blogs.library.duke.edu/bitstreams/2016/09/21/archivesspace-api-fun/
and https://github.com/duke-libraries/archivesspace-duke-scripts/tree/master/python).
