• Start a full harvest on AReS

2022-01-06

• Add ORCID identifier for Chris Jones to CGSpace
  • Also tag eighty-eight of his items in CGSpace:

$ cat 2022-01-06-add-orcids.csv
dc.contributor.author,cg.creator.identifier
"Jones, Chris","Chris Jones: 0000-0001-9096-9728"
"Jones, Christopher S.","Chris Jones: 0000-0001-9096-9728"
$ ./ilri/add-orcid-identifiers-csv.py -i 2022-01-06-add-orcids.csv -db dspace63 -u dspacetest -p 'dom@in34sniper'

• Validate and register CGSpace on OpenArchives
  • Last month IWMI colleagues were asking me to look into this, and after checking the OpenArchives mailing list it seems there was a problem on the server side
  • Now it has worked and the message is "Successfully updated OAI registration database to status COMPLIANT."
  • I received an email (as the Admin contact on our OAI) that says:

Your repository has been registered in the OAI database of conforming repositories.

• Now I'm taking a screenshot of the validation page for posterity, because the logs seem to go away after some time

• I tried to re-build the Docker image for OpenRXV and got an error in the backend:

...
> openrxv-backend@0.0.1 build
> nest build

node_modules/@elastic/elasticsearch/api/types.d.ts:2454:13 - error TS2456: Type alias 'AggregationsAggregate' circularly references itself.

Found 2 error(s).

• Ah, it seems the code on the server was slightly out of date
  • I checked out the latest master branch and it built

• Fix some citation formatting issues in Gaia's eighteen CAS Green Cover publications on DSpace Test

2022-01-19

• Francesca was having issues with a submission on CGSpace this week
  • I checked and see a lot of locks in PostgreSQL:

$ psql -c "SELECT application_name FROM pg_locks pl LEFT JOIN pg_stat_activity psa ON pl.pid = psa.pid" | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
      1 
      1 ------------------
      1 (3506 rows)
      1  application_name 
      9  psql
     10  
   3487  dspaceWeb

• As before, I see messages from PostgreSQL about processes waiting for locks since I enabled the log_lock_waits setting last month:

$ grep -E '^2022-01*' /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-10-main.log | grep -c 'still waiting for'
12

• I set a system alert on DSpace and then restarted the server

2022-01-20

• Abenet gave me a thumbs up for Gaia's eighteen CAS Green Cover items from last month
  • I created a SimpleArchiveFormat bundle with SAFBuilder and then imported them on CGSpace:

$ JAVA_OPTS="-Xmx1024m -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8" dspace import --add --eperson=aorth@mjanja.ch --source /tmp/SimpleArchiveFormat --mapfile=./2022-01-20-green-covers.map

2022-01-21

• Start working on the rest of the ~980 CGIAR TAC and ICW documents from Gaia
  • I did some cleanups and standardization of author names
  • I also noticed that a few dozen items had no dates at all, so I checked the PDFs and found dates for them in the text
  • Otherwise all items have only a year, which is not great...
• Proof of concept upgrade of OpenRXV from Angular 9 to Angular 10
  • I did some basic tests and created a pull request

2022-01-22

• Spend some time adding months to the CGIAR TAC and IWC records from Gaia
  • Most of the PDFs have only YYYY, so this is annoying...

2022-01-23

• Finalize cleaning up the dates on the CGIAR TAC and IWC records from Gaia
• Rebuild AReS and start a fresh harvest

2022-01-25

• Help Udana from IWMI answer some questions about licenses on their journal articles
  • I was surprised to see they have 921 total, but only about 200 have a dcterms.license field
  • I updated about thirty manually, but really Udana should do more...
• Normalize the metadata text_lang attributes on CGSpace database:

dspace=# SELECT DISTINCT text_lang, count(text_lang) FROM metadatavalue WHERE dspace_object_id IN (SELECT uuid FROM item) GROUP BY text_lang ORDER BY count DESC;
 text_lang |  count  
-----------+---------
 en_US     | 2803350
 en        |    6232
           |    3200
 fr        |       2
 vn        |       2
 92        |       1
 sp        |       1
           |       0
(8 rows)
dspace=# UPDATE metadatavalue SET text_lang='en_US' WHERE dspace_object_id IN (SELECT uuid FROM item) AND text_lang IN ('en', '92', '');
UPDATE 9433

• Then export the WLE Journal Articles collection again so there are fewer columns to mess with

2022-01-26

• Send Gaia an example of the duplicate report for the first 200 TAC items to see what she thinks

2022-01-27

• Work on WLE's Journal Articles a bit more
  • I realized that ~130 items have DOIs in their citation, but no cg.identifier.doi field
  • I used this OpenRefine GREL to copy them:

cells['dcterms.bibliographicCitation[en_US]'].value.split("doi: ")[1]

• I also spent a bit of time cleaning up ILRI Journal Articles, but I notice that we don't put DOIs in the citation so it's not possible to fix items that are missing DOIs that way
  • And I cleaned up and normalized some licenses
• Francesca from Bioversity was having issues with a submission on CGSpace again
  • I looked at PostgreSQL and see an increasing number of locks:

$ psql -c "SELECT application_name FROM pg_locks pl LEFT JOIN pg_stat_activity psa ON pl.pid = psa.pid" | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
      1 
      1 ------------------
      1 (537 rows)
      1  application_name 
      9  psql
     51  dspaceApi
    477  dspaceWeb
$ grep -E '^2022-01*' /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-10-main.log | grep -c 'still waiting for'

• I set a system alert on CGSpace and then restarted Tomcat and PostgreSQL
  • The issue in Francesca's case was actually that someone had taken the task, not that PostgreSQL transactions were locked!

2022-01-28

• Finalize the last ~100 WLE Journal Article items without licensese and DOIs
  • I did as many as I could, also updating http links to https for many journal links
• Federica Bottamedi contacted us from the system office to say that she took over for Vini (Abhilasha Vaid)
  • She created an account on CGSpace and now we need to see which workflows she should belong to
• Start a fresh harvesting on AReS
• I adjusted the check-duplicates.py script to write the output to a CSV file including the id, both titles, both dates, and the handle link
  • I included the id because I will need a unique field to join the resulting list of non-duplicates with the original CSV where the rest of the metadata and filenames are
  • Since these items are not in DSpace yet, I generated simple numeric IDs in OpenRefine using this GREL transform: row.index + 1
  • Then I ran check-duplicates.py on items 1–200 and sent the resulting CSV to Gaia
• Delete one duplicate item I saw in IITA's Journal Articles that was uploaded earlier in WLE
  • Also do some general cleanup on IITA's Journal Articles collection in OpenRefine
• Delete one duplicate item I saw in ILRI's Journal Articles collection
  • Also do some general cleanup on ILRI's Journal Articles collection in OpenRefine and csv-metadata-quality

2022-01-29

• I did some more cleanup on the ILRI Journal Articles
  • I added missing journal titles for items that had ISSNs
  • Then I added pages for items that had them in the citation
  • First, I faceted the citation field based on whether or not the item had something like ": 232-234" present:

value.contains(/:\s?\d+(-|–)\d+/)

• Then I faceted by blank on dcterms.extent and did a transform to extract the page information for over 1,000 items!

'p. ' +
cells['dcterms.bibliographicCitation[en_US]'].value.match(/.*:\s?(\d+)(-|–)(\d+).*/)[0] +
'-' +
cells['dcterms.bibliographicCitation[en_US]'].value.match(/.*:\s?(\d+)(-|–)(\d+).*/)[2]

• Then I did similar for cg.volume and cg.issue, also based on the citation, for example to extract the "16" from "Journal of Blah 16(1)", where "16" is the second capture group in a zero-based match:

cells['dcterms.bibliographicCitation[en_US]'].value.match(/.*( |;)(\d+)\((\d+)\).*/)[1]

• This was 3,000 items so I imported the changes on CGSpace 1,000 at a time...
