[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Mukurtu question

Beth and Seth,

Currently my program does not export CSV archival object records. Though it sounds like Seth's XSL might help with that. You could try seeing how Seth's script works and if you want to just export a bunch of EADs, my program could still help with that.

I don't believe the AS API has a CSV export option, however, I have an XSL that can turn an EAD into a CSV of archival objects (using the c-levels; it goes up to 5 levels deep): https://github.com/seth-shaw-unlv/small-stuff/blob/master/ead-numbered-components_to_tsv.xsl. You would just need to add the collection level data separately.

Hi Corey,

This sounds very promising.  I just heard back from Mukurtu and they do not have a working API, so that aspect is moot.  However, they use a CSV template for import.  Would your program be able to export CSV archival object records?

Best,

Beth

Beth,

If you want to batch export records (EADs, MARCXML, Container labels, PDFs won't work on ASpace versions 2.6-2.7.1) from ArchivesSpace, I'm developing a program<https://github.com/uga-libraries/ASpace_Batch_Export-Cleanup-Upload> to do just that. All you need is your ArchivesSpace username, password, and API URL, which is usually just your ArchivesSpace URL with a :8089 tacked on the end (whoever hosts your ASpace should know). You can find the Windows version here: https://github.com/uga-libraries/ASpace_Batch_Export-Cleanup-Upload/releases/tag/v0.6.1  - click the asbatch-v061.exe. Hopefully a Mac version will be coming soon.

It does not batch import records into ArchivesSpace, as ASpace does that with background jobs already. If you want to export records one at a time, you can do that from the staff interface.

As far as importing and exporting from Mukurtu, I'm not sure how that operates. My hope is the program I'm working on will expand to be interoperable with other systems, but that will take some time.

Let me know if this is helpful and/or you have any questions.

Corey

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Mukurtu question

[EXTERNAL SENDER - PROCEED CAUTIOUSLY]

Hello Group,

My institution is partnering with a Native American group to review potentially sensitive material we may have in our collections.  They use Mukurtu, a CMS developed for indigenous people, and is built on Drupal.  The proposal is to import the collection records to Mukurtu, they can review and add TK (traditional knowledge) labels.  Then the records will be added back to ASpace with the new information.

My question is - does anyone know how or if I can import or export records to and from ASpace and Mukurtu, without using the API?  I'm not comfortable using APIs because I don't really know how to use them.

Thank you,

Beth
