1# OAI Server Configuration
2
3# This is the main configuration file for configuring your Greenstone oai server.
4# The server is a cgi program called oaiserver (oaiserver.exe on Windows).
5# Some basic commands that you can send it are:
6# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver.cgi?verb=Identify
7# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver.cgi?verb=ListSets
8# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver.cgi?verb=ListMetadataFormats
9# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver.cgi?verb=ListIdentifiers&set=xxx (1.1 only)
10# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver.cgi?verb=ListIdentifiers&set=xxx&metadataPrefix=oai_dc (2.0 only)
11# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver.cgi?verb=ListRecords&set=xxx&metadataPrefix=oai_dc
12# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver.cgi?verb=GetRecord&identifier=xxx&metadataPrefix=oai_dc
13
14#The List verbs (ListSets, ListIdentifiers, ListRecords) all return a
15#sequence of items. The 'resumeafter' paramter below indicates how many
16#records to return - if this number is less than the number matching the
17#request, then a resumption token is returned. To use this to get the
18#next set of documents, you need to issue the same request again, with
19#an additional parameter: resumptionToken=xxx
20#For example,
21# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver.cgi?verb=ListRecords&set=demo&metadataPrefix=oai_dc&resumptionToken=gsdloai:demo,,11-
22
23# For more information about the OAI-PMH protocol, see

26# Strings containing spaces should be enclosed in double quotes ""

28#the baseURL used by the oaiserver
29#Example: baseURL "http://your-domain-name/cgi-bin/oaiserver.cgi"
30baseURL "your-own-baseURL-goes-here"

46# How many records to output before needing a resumption token
47# A value of -1 will return all records for a request

50# Other free text items describing the repository. There is no restriction
51# on the number of items, or item names
52# The format is like the following:
53# oaiinfo "item name" "item value"
54# Examples may include sponsor, purpose, size...
55
56# A list of collections that should be made available to OAI clients. By
57# default, collections are not available.
58# There can be more than one line: each line must start with oaicollection,
59# and this is followed by one or more collection names. The collection name
60# is the name of the collection's folder in the collect directory.
61oaicollection demo oai-e
62
63# Optional, set name and description for each collection
64# collname is the same collection name as in the above oaicollection line
65# The format is like the following:
66# oaisetname collname "Name of Collection"
67# oaisetdescription collname "Collection description"
68
69# Metadata mapping information. At present, Greenstone's OAI server
70# supports the following metadata formats.
71# oai_dc (OAI standard for Dublin Core)
72# gsdl_qdc (Greenstone format for Qualified Dublin Core)
73# rfc1807 (OAI standard for RFC 1807 format)
74
75# the list of metadata formats this server should support (Choose from the
76# above list)
77oaimetadata oai_dc gsdl_qdc
78
79# Metadata in other formats must be mapped to these formats. This can be done
80# in this file, or for a particular collection, in its collect.cfg file.
81
82# The format is like
83# oaimapping <greenstone fieldname> <metadataPrefix.fieldname>
84
85# The Greenstone field names can be unqualified (Title, Subject) or
86# qualified by a namespace (dc.Title, dls.Subject). These mapping rules
87# will apply to the entire repository. Collection specific rules can also
88# be specified in this file using a collection name qualifier. This is
89# the collection name followed by a colon (demo:Title, demo:dls.Title).
90# Mappings specified in a collect.cfg file do not need the collection
91# qualifier.
92
93# Details about the Dublin Core metadata format can be found at
94# http://dublincore.org/
95# Elements include Title, Creator, Subject, Description, Publisher,
96# Contributor, Date, Type, Format, Identifier, Source, Language,
97# Relation, Coverage, Rights

99# mappings for the dls metadata set
