[Archivesspace_Users_Group] change to record limit for top container report

[Steele, Henry]

Thank you for this information.  This worked.  I looked for that line in the config file default, but it’s great to know that we can add it even if it’s not shown there.

Have a great weekend!

I believe you’re supposed to override this by setting a value in your config.rb file:

AppConfig[:max_top_container_results] = 15000

You shouldn’t have to override the model if you’re not making any other changes.

Thanks all for your help with my last question about the PUI.

I asked this question on Slack, but I’m not sure it was an active channel.

I'm trying to change this setting in the ArchivesSpace backend model:  [:max_top_container_results] : 10000     I want to raise this limit to 15000, because this would let us retrieve the complete set of our top containers.  I have tried to put an override file in /plugins/local/backend/model/top_container.rb with everything from our existing top_container.rb file that gets loaded in the data directory, with that limit changed.   But when I try to run this report, after about 20 seconds I get an error saying  "We're sorry but something went wrong"
Is this something I have to write an actual plugin for, or can I just tweak this file somehow?
