Re: [EP-tech] Eprints for research data

Hi Yuri,
Rory is the one who made the modifications to the Recollect plugin. I believe he is on this list so he may be able to advise further.
The "Copyright holders" metadata is clearly an issue with Javascript. Do you have any other missing help phrases and do they have the same problem? I have certainly seen many fields with missing helps in the past and haven't had this problem. That said, I have seen issues with Javascript either rendering things on the wrong part of the page or moving you to the top of the page. Is the repository you are working on based on the default Javascript and CSS or does it also include bespoke Javascript/CSS for institutional branding. Sometimes there can be conflicts between these, which causes this sort of problem. This issue is one of those that is difficult to debug without being able to see the problem at hand. 

Regards

David Newman

Recollect works very well! Thanks for the suggestions.

I've found that https://github.com/eprintsug/recollect has some recent
commits that tha plugin on bazaar has not (May 2017, plugin is 2014).
For example it adds support for https lookup url (a must for https
sites!) for research founder and data type.  Also this fix is a must for
embargoed or closed documents:

https://github.com/eprintsug/recollect/commit/bb3a255fe65cbffa7926d5b604b76e64155a92dd
( "Really important automatic setting of full_text_status" )

Worth a check?

Note: the help (clicking on ?) for "Copyright holders" metadata does not
work (it sends to the top of the page instead of showing the help). I
don't know if it is an Eprints bug (not handling missing helps) or a
Recollect one.

Hi Yuri,

So the Recollect and the DataCiteDoi are the only real must have
plugins for a research data repository.

The ORCID and ORCID Support plugins are not essential for a research
data repository, it is really down to whether you want the various
features it provides.

The Generic Reporting Framework plugin, does not provide any direct
functionality but is needed by the ORCID Support, REF Compliance
Checker and RIOXX2 plugins.  The last two of these were really designed
for UK-based publications repositories and were built around HEFCE
policies regarding Open Access [1].  They may provide some ideas on
additional metadata you research data repository should be storing but
probably not much more than that.

UCLan Data is a fairly long established research data repository.  It
may be worth looking at their metadata schema [2] for additional fields
you might need.  (Look under the dataset_eprint ComplexType).  That
said, this was adapted from a standard publications repository, so has
a number of irrelevant fields that are unused.  Therefore, I would
advise against copying the fields you see blindly.

David Newman

Hi!

     what are the best plugin, scripts, configurations and best
pratics to
use Eprints primary as a research data archive? I've read this case
study:

     http://www.dcc.ac.uk/resources/developing-rdm-services/using-epr
ints-build-repository-uel

     which uses the Recollect Plugin. Then this guide
https://wiki.eprints.org/w/ORCID on orcid and also we have the
orcid
support: http://bazaar.eprints.org/544/ (
https://wiki.eprints.org/w/ORCID_Support). Datacite and Doi,
Eprints 3.3
already support doi metadata grabbing as also does for pubmed.

Also this seems interesting:
https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Generic_Reporting_Framework. Is this
plugin
http://bazaar.eprints.org/390/ (RIOXX v2.0) something useful
outside Uk?

I think also this plugin is useful:
https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Files/OpenAIRE_Compliance_Plug-in (
https://www.openaire.eu/webinar-openaire-compatibility-for-reposito
ries-eprints-repository-platform
) but I don't know if it has been recently updated
(http://files.eprints.org/649/ seems 2011) and we have now

Any other metadata format, plugin or anything else? I'm thinking
something to get/update research data directly from Zenodo.

Thanks!
