Documenting day-to-day work on the CGSpace repository.

  • Continue with processing the statistics-2019 Solr core with the AtomicStatisticsUpdateCLI tool on DSpace Test
    • So far we’ve spent at least fifty hours to process the statistics and statistics-2019 core… wow.

  • Talk to Moayad and fix a few issues on OpenRXV:
    • Incorrect views and downloads (caused by Elasticsearch’s default result set size of 10)
    • Invalid share link
    • Missing “https://” for Handles in the Simple Excel report (caused by using the handle instead of the uri)
    • Sorting the list of items by views
  • I resumed the processing of the statistics-2018 Solr core after it spent 20 hours to get to 60%

2020-11-04

  • After 29 hours the statistics-2017 core finished processing so I started the statistics-2016 core on DSpace Test

  • Peter sent me corrections and deletions for the author affiliations
    • I quickly proofed them for UTF-8 issues in OpenRefine and csv-metadata-quality and then tested them locally and then applied them on CGSpace:
$ ./fix-metadata-values.py -i 2020-11-05-fix-862-affiliations.csv -db dspace -u dspace -p 'fuuu' -f cg.contributor.affiliation -t 'correct' -m 211
$ ./delete-metadata-values.py -i 2020-11-05-delete-29-affiliations.csv -db dspace -u dspace -p 'fuuu' -f cg.contributor.affiliation -m 211
  • Then I started a Discovery re-index on CGSpace:
$ time chrt -b 0 ionice -c2 -n7 nice -n19 dspace index-discovery -b
