Making the CMDI Metadata Harvestable

From WebLichtWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

For CMDI metadata to be harvestable by WebLicht it must be stored in a repository supporting the OAI-PMH protocol. This repository should be registered in the CLARIN center registry

To avoid harvesting of unnecessary data by the WebLicht harvester, each center offering WebLicht services must create a set in their repository for metadata about those web services. The WebLicht harvester only retrieves those sets.


Please ask your Center Registry contact person to add the following elements to your center's metadata:

  • WebServicesSet: The name of the set in your repository containing CMDI metadata for WebLicht web services, e.g. WebLichtWebServices. No spaces or special characters allowed.
  • WebServiceType: WebLicht
  • MetadataScheme: CMDI
  • OaiAccessPoint: URL for harvesting, e.g. http://repository.my.org.countrycode/oaiprovider
