GetRecord

• Purpose
• Returns the metadata for a single item in the form
of an OAI record

• Parameters
• identiﬁer – unique id for item (R)
• metadataPreﬁx – metadata format for the record
(R)

4

ListRecords
• Purpose
• Retrieves metadata records for multiple items
• Parameters
• from – start date (O)
- greater than or equal to
• until – end date (O)
- less than or equal to
• set – set to harvest from (O)
• resumptionToken – ﬂow control mechanism (X)
• metadataPreﬁx – metadata format (R)

ListRecords – from until

from=1999-01-15&until=2005-12-31&metadataPrefix=oai_lom

UTCdatetime
Dates and times are uniformly encoded using ISO8601
and are expressed in UTC throughout the protocol.
When time is included, the special UTC designator
("Z") must be used. UTC is implied for dates although
no timezone designator is specified. For example,
1957-03-20T20:30:00Z is UTC 8:30:00 PM on March
20th 1957. UTCdatetime is used in both protocol
requests and protocol replies, in the way described in
the following sections.

6

ListIdentifiers
• Purpose
• List headers for all items corresponding to the specified
parameters

• Parameters
• from – start date (O)
• until – end date (O)
• set – set to harvest from (O)
• metadataPrefix – metadata format to list identifiers for (R)
• resumptionToken – flow control mechanism (X)

7

ListSets

• Purpose
• Provide a listing of sets in which records may be
organized (may be hierarchical, overlapping, or ﬂat)

• Parameters
• None

Setting up a target

14

Setting up a target
• Install Java, Ant & apache-tomcat
• Set environment vars
set JAVA_HOME=C:j2sdk1.5.0
set ANT_HOME=C:apache-ant-1.6.5
set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%bin;%ANT_HOME%bin;%PATH%

• Download oaicat source and build
cd <your build-dir>
type “ant”
• Deploy code
put “oaicat_5.0/dist/oaicat.war” under “apache-tomcat/webapps/”

Setting up a target

• Testing the target
- http://localhost:8080/oaitarget/OAIHandler?verb=Identify
- http://localhost:8080/oaitarget/OAIHandler?verb=ListMetadataFormats

Setting up a target
• Binding to example lucene index
• Download the index :
- http://ariadne.cs.kuleuven.be/MeltSqiOai/OAI/lucene.zip
• Extract
• open properties ﬁle with text editor :
- oaicat_5.0/WEB-INF/oaicat.properties
• Enter the full path of index under the
"LuceneLomCatalog.lucenePath" property
• reload the target

Binding it to your DB

20

• Implement /adapt 3 classes :
• org.ariadne.oai.server.X.catalog.XCatalog.java
➡ Implements the OAI-PMH verbs

• org.ariadne.oai.server.X.catalog.XRecordFactory.java
➡ Creates OAI-PMH headers

• org.ariadne.oai.server.X.crosswalk.XCrosswalk.java
➡ Maps arbitrary object to LOM XML object

20


21


• XCatalog.java
• For each “verb” :
- get parameters
- query database to get matching metadata
- parse metadata into java objects (Vector, HashMap, ...)
- call RecordFactory and Crosswalk to create records

21


22


• XRecordFactory.java
• Two important methods :
- getLocalIdentifier(Object nativeItem);

- getDatestamp(Object nativeItem);

22


23


• XCrosswalk.java
• Map ﬁelds of your object to LOM XML object :
- createMetadata(Object nativeItem);
