Archivematica

Development

• Joseph
  • continued work with the FPR Rest API started with Mike C. This work included update to django in dev, and sorting on the last modified column.
  • metadata processing, to bring it under the objects directory of the AIP. #4596
  • getting manual normalization workflows to work with archivematica FPR ones.
• Joseph upgraded our Django to 1.4.x and Mike C tested the dashboard
• Evelyn and Mike C looked at TRIM DIP upload requirements together and Evelyn made a sample DIP
• Evelyn began categorizing all our dev tasks in redmine
• Justin working on upload to Archivists Toolkit feature for client #1885; testing against a copy of the client's AT db
• Mike C
  • got rid of the MySQL dependency for AIP search, moving AIP metadata that was in the DB to ElasticSearch
  • changed transfer component copying to use rsync
  • found a Node ElasticSearch proxy (for adding access control, etc.). ES has no built-in access control.
• Justin thinks ES issues are system configuration/installation issues rather than ES issues and need closer examination
