Description of the Module
This module defines a set of oozie workflows for the collection and transformation of metadata records. Both workflows interact with the Metadata Store Manager (MdSM) to handle the logical transactions required to ensure the consistency of the read/write operations on the data as the MdSM in fact keeps track of the logical-physical mapping of each MDStore.
Metadata collection
The metadata collection workflow is responsible for harvesting metadata records from different protocols and responding to different formats and to store them as on HDFS so that they can be further processed.
Collector Plugins
Different protocols are managed by dedicated Collector plugins, i.e. java programs implementing a defined interface:
eu.dnetlib.dhp.collection.plugin.CollectorPlugin
The list of the supported plugins:
- OAI Plugin: collects from OAI-PMH compatible endpoints
- MDStore plugin: collects from a given D-Net MetadataStore, (identified by moogodb URI, dbName, MDStoreID)
- MDStore dump plugin: collects from an MDStore dump stored on the HDFS location indicated by the
path
parameter
