- Looking at extracting the metadata registries from ICARDA's MEL DSpace database so we can compare fields with CGSpace
- We can use PostgreSQL's extended output format (`-x`) plus `sed` to format the output into quasi XML:
```
$ psql dspacenew -x -c 'select element, qualifier, scope_note from metadatafieldregistry where metadata_schema_id=5 order by element, qualifier;' | sed -r 's:^-\[ RECORD (.*) \]-+$:</dc-type>\n<dc-type>:;s:([^ ]*) +\| (.*): <\1>\2</\1>:;s:^$:</dc-type>:;1s:</dc-type>\n::'
```
- The `sed` script is from a post on the [PostgreSQL mailing list](https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/437E44A5.508%40ultimeth.com)
