Notes

2023-02-01

  • Export CGSpace to cross check the DOI metadata with Crossref
    • I want to try to expand my use of their data to journals, publishers, volumes, issues, etc...
  • First, extract a list of DOIs for use with crossref-doi-lookup.py:
$ csvcut -c 'cg.identifier.doi[en_US]' ~/Downloads/2023-02-01-cgspace.csv \
  | csvgrep -c 1 -m 'doi.org' \
  | csvgrep -c 1 -m ' ' -i \
  | csvgrep -c 1 -r '.*cifor.*' -i \
  | sed 1d > /tmp/2023-02-01-dois.txt
$ ./ilri/crossref-doi-lookup.py -e a.orth@cgiar.org -i /tmp/2023-02-01-dois.txt -o ~/Downloads/2023-01-31-crossref-results.csv -d
  • Then extract the ID, DOI, journal, volume, issue, publisher, etc from the CGSpace dump and rename the cg.identifier.doi[en_US] to doi so we can join on it with the Crossref results file:
$ csvcut -c 'id,cg.identifier.doi[en_US],cg.journal[en_US],cg.volume[en_US],cg.issue[en_US],dcterms.publisher[en_US],cg.number[en_US],dcterms.license[en_US]' ~/Downloads/2023-02-01-cgspace.csv \
  | csvgrep -c 'cg.identifier.doi[en_US]' -r '.*cifor.*' -i \
  | sed -e '1s/cg.identifier.doi\[en_US\]/doi/' \
    -e 's_https://doi.org/__g' \
    -e 's_https://dx.doi.org/__g' \
  > /tmp/2023-02-01-cgspace-doi-metadata.csv
$ csvjoin -c doi /tmp/2023-02-01-cgspace-doi-metadata.csv ~/Downloads/2023-02-01-crossref-results.csv > /tmp/2023-02-01-cgspace-crossref-check.csv
  • And import into OpenRefine for analysis and cleaning
  • I just noticed that Crossref also has types, so we could use that in the future too!
  • I got a few corrections after examining manually, but I didn't manage to identify any patterns that I could use to do any automatic matching or cleaning

2023-02-05

  • Normalize text lang attributes in PostgreSQL, run a quick Discovery index, and then export CGSpace to check Initiative mappings and countries/regions
  • Run all system updates on CGSpace (linode18) and reboot it

  • IFPRI's web developer Tony managed to get his Drupal harvester to have a useful user agent:
54.x.x.x - - [06/Feb/2023:10:10:32 +0100] "POST /rest/items/find-by-metadata-field?limit=%22100&offset=0 HTTP/1.1" 200 58855 "-" "IFPRI drupal POST harvester"
  • He also noticed that there is no pagination on POST requests to /rest/items/find-by-metadata-field, and that he needs to increase his timeout for requests that return 100+ results, ie:
curl -f -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST "https://dspacetest.cgiar.org/rest/items/find-by-metadata-field" -d '{"key":"cg.subject.actionArea", "value":"Systems Transformation", "language": "en_US"}'
  • I need to ask on the DSpace Slack about this POST pagination
  • Abenet and Udana noticed that the Handle server was not running
    • Looking in the error.log file I see that the service is complaining about a lock file being present
    • This is because Linode had to do emergency maintenance on the VM host this morning and the Handle server didn't shut down properly
  • I'm having an issue with poetry update so I spent some time debugging and filed an issue
  • Proof and import nine items for the Digital Innovation Inititive for IFPRI
    • There were only some minor issues in the metadata
    • I also did a duplicate check with check-duplicates.py just in case
  • I did some minor updates on csv-metadata-quality
    • First, to reduce warnings on non-SPDX licenses like "Copyrighted; all rights reserved" and "Other" since they are very common for us and I'm sick of seeing the warnings
    • Second, to skip whitespace and newline fixes on the abstract field since so many times they are intended

2023-02-08

  • Make some edits to IFPRI records requested by Jawoo and Leigh
  • Help Alessandra upload a last minute report for SAPLING
  • Proof and upload twenty-seven IFPRI records to CGSpace
    • It's a good thing I did a duplicate check because I found three duplicates!
  • Export CGSpace to update Initiative mappings and country/region mappings
    • Then start a harvest on AReS

2023-02-09

  • Do some minor work on the CSS on the DSpace 7 test

2023-02-10

  • I noticed a large number of PostgreSQL locks from dspaceWeb on CGSpace:
$ psql -c 'SELECT * FROM pg_locks pl LEFT JOIN pg_stat_activity psa ON pl.pid = psa.pid;' | grep -o -E '(dspaceWeb|dspaceApi|dspaceCli)' | sort | uniq -c
   2033 dspaceWeb
  • Looking at the lock age, I see some already 1 day old, including this curious query:
select nextval ('public.registrationdata_seq')
  • I killed all locks that were more than a few hours old
  • Export CGSpace to update Initiative collection mappings
  • Discuss adding dcterms.available to the submission form
    • I also looked in the dcterms.description field on CGSpace and found ~1,500 items where the is an indication of an online published date
    • Using some facets in OpenRefine I narrowed down the ones mentioning "online" and then extracted the dates to a new column:
cells['dcterms.description[en_US]'].value.replace(/.*?(\d+{2}) ([a-zA-Z]+) (\d+{2}).*/,"$3-$2-$1")
  • Then to handle formats like "2022-April-26" and "2021-Nov-11" I used some replacement GRELs (note the order so we don't replace short patterns in longer strings prematurely):
value.replace("January","01").replace("February","02").replace("March","03").replace("April","04").replace("May","05").replace("June","06").replace("July","07").replace("August","08").replace("September","09").replace("October","10").replace("November","11").replace("December","12")
value.replace("Jan","01").replace("Feb","02").replace("Mar","03").replace("Apr","04").replace("May","05").replace("Jun","06").replace("Jul","07").replace("Aug","08").replace("Sep","09").replace("Oct","10").replace("Nov","11").replace("Dec","12")
  • This covered about 1,300 items, then I did about 100 more messier ones with some more regex wranling
    • I removed the dcterms.description[en_US] field from items where I updated the dates
  • Then I added dcterms.available to the submission form and the item view
    • We need to announce this to the editors

2023-02-13

  • Export CGSpace to do some metadata quality checks
    • I added CGIAR Trust Fund as a donor to some new Initiative outputs
    • I moved some abstracts from the description field
    • I moved some version information to the cg.edition field

2023-02-14

  • The PRMS team in Colombia sent some questions about countries on CGSpace
    • I had to fix some, that were clearly wrong, but there is also a difference between CGSpace and MEL because we use mostly iso-codes, and MEL uses the UN M.49 list
    • Then I re-ran the country code tagger from cgspace-java-helpers, forcing the update on all items in the Initiatives community
  • Remove Alliance research levers from cg.contributor.crp field after discussing with Daniel and Maria
    • This was a mistake on TIP's part, and there is no direct mapping between research levers and CRPs
  • I exported CGSpace to check Initiative collection mappings, regions, and licenses
    • Peter told me that all CGIAR blog posts for the Initiatives should be CC-BY-4.0, and I see the logo at the bottom in light gray!
    • I had previously missed that and removed some licenses for blog posts
    • I checked cgiar.org, ifpri.org, icarda.org, iwmi.cgiar.org, irri.org, etc and corrected a handful
  • Start a harvest on AReS

2023-02-15

  • Work on rebasing my local DSpace 7 dev branches on top of the latest 7.5-SNAPSHOT
    • It seems the issues I had with the dspace submission-forms-migrate tool in [August, 2022]({{< relref "2022-08.md" >}}) were fixed
  • I imported a fresh PostgreSQL snapshot from CGSpace and then removed the Atmire migrations and ran the new migrations as I originally noted in [March, 2022]({{< relref "2022-03.md" >}}), and is pointed out in the DSpace 7 upgrade notes
    • Now I get a new error:
localhost/dspace7= ☘ DELETE FROM schema_version WHERE version IN ('5.0.2017.09.25', '6.0.2017.01.30', '6.0.2017.09.25');
localhost/dspace7= ☘ DELETE FROM schema_version WHERE description LIKE '%Atmire%' OR description LIKE '%CUA%' OR description LIKE '%cua%';
localhost/dspace7= \q
$ ./bin/dspace database migrate ignored

  • I dropped that index and then the migration succeeded:
localhost/dspace7= ☘ DROP INDEX resourcepolicy_action_idx;
localhost/dspace7= ☘ \q
$ ./bin/dspace database migrate ignored
Done.

2023-02-16

  • I found a suspicious number of PostgreSQL locks on CGSpace and decided to investigate:
$ psql -c 'SELECT * FROM pg_locks pl LEFT JOIN pg_stat_activity psa ON pl.pid = psa.pid;' | grep -o -E '(dspaceWeb|dspaceApi|dspaceCli)' | sort | uniq -c
     44 dspaceApi
    372 dspaceCli
    446 dspaceWeb
  • This started happening yesterday and I killed a few locks that were several hours old after inspecting the locks-age.sql output
  • I also checked the locks.sql output, which helpfully lists the blocked PID and the blocking PID, to find one blocking PID that was idle in transaction
    • I killed that process and then all other locks were instantly processed
  • I filed a GitHub issue on dspace-angular requesting the item view to use the bitstream description instead of the file name if present
  • Weekly CG Core types meeting
    • I need to go through the actions and remove those items that are only for CGSpace internal use, ie:
      • CD-ROM
      • Manuscript-unpublished
      • Photo Report
      • Questionnaire
      • Wiki
  • Weekly CGIAR Repository Working Group meeting
  • I did some experiments with Crossref dates for about 20,000 DOIs in CGSpace using my crossref-doi-lookup.py script
  • Some things I noted from reading the Crossref API docs and inspecting the records for a few dozen DOIs manually:
    • ["created"]["date-parts"] → Date on which the DOI was first registered (not useful for us)
    • ["published-print"]["date-parts"] → Date on which the work was published in print
    • ["journal-issue"]["published-print"]["date-parts"] → When present, is 99% the same as the above
    • ["published-online"]["date-parts"] → Date on which the work was published online
    • ["journal-issue"]["published-online"]["date-parts"] → Much more rare, and only 50% the same as the above, so unreliable
    • ["issued"]["date-parts"] → Earliest of published-print and published-online (not useful to us)
  • After checking the DOIs manully I decided that when the published-print date exists, it is usually more accurate than our issued dates
    • I set 12,300 issue dates to those from Crossref
  • I also decided that, when published-online exists, it is usually accurate when I check the publisher page (we don't have many online dates to compare)
    • I set the available date for ~7,000 items to the published-online date as long as:
      • There was no dcterms.available date already
      • It was different than the issued date, because for now I only want online dates that are different, in case this is an online only journal in which case that can be the issue date... maybe I'll re-visit that later

2023-02-17

  • It seems some (all?) of the changes I applied to dates last night didn't get saved...
    • I don't know what happened, so I will run them again after some investigation
    • I submitted the first batch of ~7,600 changes and it took twelve hours!
    • I almost cancelled it because after applying the changes there was a lock blocking everything for two hours, and it seemed to be stuck, but I kept checking it and saw that the query_start and state_change were being updated despite it being state "idle in transaction":
$ psql -c 'SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity WHERE pid=1025176' | less -S
  • I will apply the other changes in smaller batches...
  • Lately I've noticed a lot of activity from the country code tagger curation task
    • Looking in the logs I see items being tagged that are very old and should have already been tagged years ago
    • Also, I see a ton of these errors whenever the task is updating an item:
2023-02-17 08:01:00,252 INFO  org.dspace.curate.Curator @ Curation task: countrycodetagger performed on: 10568/89020 with status: 0. Result: '10568/89020: added 1 alpha2 country code(s)'

  • This must be related...

2023-02-18

  • I realized why the country-code-tagger was tagging everything: I had overridden the force parameter last week!
  • Start a harvest on AReS

2023-02-20

  • IWMI is concerned that some of their items with top Altmetric attention scores don't show up in the AReS Explorer
    • I looked into it for one and found that AReS is using the Handle, but Altmetric hasn't associated the Handle with the DOI
  • Looking into country and region issues for the PRMS team
    • Last week they had some questions about some invalid countries that ended up being typos
    • I realized my cgspace-java-helpers country-code-tagger curation task is not using the latest version, so it was missing Türkiye
    • I compiled the new version and ran it manually, but I have to upload a new version to Maven Central and then update the dependency in dspace/modules/additions/pom.xml ughhhhhh
    • I tagged version 6.2 with the change for Türkiye and uploaded to to Maven Central with mvn clean deploy
  • I'm having second thoughts about switching to UN M.49 for countries because there are just too many tradeoffs
    • I want to find a way to keep our existing list, and codify some rules for it
    • There are several discussions related to the shortcomings of ISO themselves and the iso-codes project, for example:
    • I almost want to say fuck it, let's just use iso-codes and tell everyone to deal with it, but make sure we handle ISO 3166-1 Alpha2 or probably Alpha3 in the future
    • Something like:
      • Prefer common_name if it exists
      • Prefer the shorter of name and official name

2023-02-21

  • Continue working on my parse-iso-codes.py script to parse the iso-codes JSON for ISO 3166-1
    • I also started a spreadsheet to track current CGSpace country names, proposed new names using the compromise above, and UN M.49 names
    • I proposed this to Peter but he wasn't happy because there are still some stupidly long and political names there
  • I bumped the version of cgspace-java-helpers to 6.2-SNAPSHOT and pushed it to Maven Central because I can't figure out how to get non-snapshot releases to go there
  • Ouch, grunt 1.6.0 was released a few weeks ago, which relies on Node.js v16, thus breaking the Mirage 2 build in DSpace 6
  • Help Moises from CIP troubleshoot harvesting issues on their WordPress site
    • I see 2,000 requests with the user agent "RTB website BOT" today and they are all HTTP 200
# grep 'RTB website BOT' /var/log/nginx/rest.log | awk '{print $9}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -h
