[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Adding identifiers to resource trees and record entries in assessments

[Christine Di Bella]

Hi Nick,

Identifiers were added to the assessment record display in version 2.6.0 (see https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-274 for the issue). The CUID is not part of that, though a plug-in should similarly be able to change that behavior for you locally if you wish.

I’ll also just mention that if anyone develops plug-ins for these or other functions that they think might have relevance outside their own institution, please consider adding them as links on the Awesome ArchivesSpace list (https://github.com/archivesspace/awesome-archivesspace). This is a wonderful community-maintained web guide that points to a variety of resources developed across the community. It includes links to documentation, plug-ins, scripts, integration possibilities and more.

Hi Cory,

Thank you very much for the link - the tree_component_id plugin looks like it should do exactly what we need for the resource trees.

Best wishes,
Nick

Nick,

It appears that the second of your requests below was previously proposed as part of ANW-780 (https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-780). The comments there suggest that there is some interest in replacing the Instance Type in the resource tree with the component unique identifier (CUI), but the Development Prioritization Team felt the data being recorded in the CUI field was not consistent enough yet to merit a change in the base code. However, the ticket does include a link to a plug-in from the University of Denver that appears to replace the instance number column in the resource tree with the CUI--if that would meet your need.

Best,

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Adding identifiers to resource trees and record entries in assessments

Good afternoon,

Our archivists are wondering if it's possible to add record identifiers to the following areas:

* The record(s) in Assessments (i.e. each entry in div class="input-group linker-wrapper multiplicity-many sortable" in the edit or new Assessments screen). Currently it just has the object title, we'd like it to have the identifier concatenated too.
* The entries in resource trees (i.e. each entry in div class="largetree-container ui-resizable" in the edit Resources screen). Again it currently only has the object title (or display_string, for archival objects).

Might anyone know if there's any way to achieve this with a plugin? Has anyone done something like this before?

Many thanks for any suggestions!

Best wishes,
Nick
