HTTP::OAI::Repository(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTTP::OAI::Repository(3pm) NAME
HTTP::OAI::Repository - Documentation for building an OAI compliant repository using OAI-PERL DESCRIPTION
Using the OAI-PERL library in a repository context requires the user to build the OAI responses to be sent to OAI harvesters. SYNOPSIS 1 use HTTP::OAI::Harvester; use HTTP::OAI::Metadata::OAI_DC; use XML::SAX::Writer; use XML::LibXML; # (all of these options _must_ be supplied to comply with the OAI protocol) # (protocolVersion and responseDate both have sensible defaults) my $r = new HTTP::OAI::Identify( baseURL=>'http://yourhost/cgi/oai', adminEmail=>'youremail@yourhost', repositoryName=>'agoodname', requestURL=>self_url() ); # Include a description (an XML::LibXML Dom object) $r->description(new HTTP::OAI::Metadata(dom=>$dom)); my $r = HTTP::OAI::Record->new( header=>HTTP::OAI::Header->new( identifier=>'oai:myrepo:10', datestamp=>'2004-10-01' ), metadata=>HTTP::OAI::Metadata::OAI_DC->new( dc=>{title=>['Hello, World!'],description=>['My Record']} ) ); $r->about(HTTP::OAI::Metadata->new(dom=>$dom)); my $writer = XML::SAX::Writer->new(); $r->set_handler($writer); $r->generate; Building an OAI compliant repository The validation scripts included in this module provide the repository admin with a number of tools for helping with being OAI compliant, however they can not be exhaustive in themselves. METHODS
$r = HTTP::OAI::Repository::validate_request(%paramlist) $r = HTTP::OAI::Repository::validate_request_2_0(%paramlist) These functions, exported by the Repository module, validate an OAI request against the protocol requirements. Returns an HTTP::Response object, with the code set to 200 if the request is well-formed, or an error code and the message set. e.g: my $r = validate_request(%paramlist); print header(-status=>$r->code.' '.$r->message), $r->error_as_HTML; Note that validate_request attempts to be as strict to the Protocol as possible. $b = HTTP::OAI::Repository::validate_date($date) $b = HTTP::OAI::Repository::validate_metadataPrefix($mdp) $b = HTTP::OAI::Repository::validate_responseDate($date) $b = HTTP::OAI::Repository::validate_setSpec($set) These functions, exported by the Repository module, validate the given type of OAI data. Returns true if the given value is sane, false otherwise. EXAMPLE
See the bin/gateway.pl for an example implementation (it's actually for creating a static repository gateway, but you get the idea!). perl v5.12.4 2010-09-01 HTTP::OAI::Repository(3pm)
