In GitHub, there is this:

https://github.com/eprints/eprints/blob/3.3/lib/defaultcfg/cfg.d/optional_filename_sanitise.pl

which works alongside an addition to System.pm:

https://github.com/eprints/eprints/blob/69f4c9e581df137b970ce0ab4e08572976162411/perl_lib/EPrints/System.pm#L551-L559

That might be useful to know about?

Cheers,

John

Hi Alfredo,

another way, instead of validating, is to transcribe the filenames. We extended the sanitise subroutine in perl_lib/EPrints/System.pm like this:

Betreff: Re: [EP-tech] validation on upload field
Gesendet von: eprints-tech-bounces@ecs.soton.ac.uk

Hi Alfredo,

we solved an similar feature request by a either repository specific (i.e. Eprints/archives/repoID/cfg/cfg.d/) or server specific (i.e. Eprints/site_lib/cfg.d/) document_validate.pl:

$c->{validate_document} = sub
{
       my( $document, $repository, $for_archive ) = @_;

       my @problems = ();

       my $xml = $repository->xml();

       # default checks
# :
       # site-specific checks

       # check for proper filename, i.e. accepted by tivoli backup ingesting only ASCI-filenames without blanks
       # print STDERR "main: ", $document->value( "main" )," escaped: ",URI::Escape::uri_escape_utf8($document->value( "main" ), "^A-Za-z0-9\-\._~\/");
       my $doc_name_uri = URI::Escape::uri_escape_utf8($document->value( "main" ), "^A-Za-z0-9\-\._~\/");
       if( $document->value( "main" ) ne $doc_name_uri )
       {
               my $fieldname = $repository->make_element( "span", class=>"ep_problem_field:documents" );
               $fieldname->appendChild( $document->dataset->render_name( $repository ) );

               my $prob = $repository->make_doc_fragment;
               $prob->appendChild( $repository->html_phrase( "validate:bad_filename", fieldname=>$fieldname ) );
               $prob->appendChild( $repository->make_text( $doc_name_uri ) );

               $prob->appendChild( $repository->html_phrase( "validate:original_filename") );
               $prob->appendChild( $repository->make_text( $document->value( "main" ) ) );

               push @problems, $prob;
       }


       return( @problems );
};

After setting the introduced phrases by
<epp:phrase id="validate:bad_filename">Please replace non-ASCII characters (e.g. 'äöü') or blanks in the name of uploaded <epc:pin name="fieldname" /> appropriately to simplify future handling!<br/>Following filename prepared for repository<br/></epp:phrase>
<epp:phrase id="validate:original_filename"><br/>is different to original one :(<br/></epp:phrase>
in an appropriate .../lang/en/phrases/... file it should work :-)
