  • Add dc.description.sponsorship to Discovery sidebar facets and make investors clickable in item view (#232)
  • I think this query should find and replace all authors that have “,” at the end of their names:
dspacetest=# update metadatavalue set text_value = regexp_replace(text_value, '(^.+?),$', '\1') where metadata_field_id=3 and text_value ~ '^.+?,$';
UPDATE 95
dspacetest=# select text_value from  metadatavalue where metadata_field_id=3 and text_value ~ '^.+?,$';
 text_value
------------
(0 rows)
  • In this case the select query was showing 95 results before the update

  • Comment on DSpace Jira ticket about author lookup search text (DS-2329)

  • Seems the database’s author authority values mean nothing without the authority Solr core from the host where they were created!

  • Amend backup-solr.sh script so it backs up the entire Solr folder
  • We really only need statistics and authority but meh
  • Fix metadata for species on DSpace Test:
$ ./fix-metadata-values.py -i /tmp/Species-Peter-Fix.csv -f dc.Species -t CORRECT -m 94 -d dspacetest -u dspacetest -p 'fuuu'
  • Will run later on CGSpace
  • A user is still having problems with Sherpa/Romeo causing crashes during the submission process when the journal is “ungraded”
  • I tested the patch for DS-2740 that I had found last month and it seems to work
  • I will merge it to 5_x-prod
