Overview of setting up a digital library
This section provides an overview of the steps required to set up an ADL node.
- Install Java 2 SDK.
- Install Apache Tomcat Server 4.1.24.
- Download ADL software.
- Install ADL software.
- Test the installation and connection to UCSB MIL.
- Determine how data holdings will be divided into collections. See “Planning A Collection."
- Determine what collection-level and item-level metadata will be used. See “Introduction to ADL Metadata."
- Format metadata reports by editing report templates (bucket-report-template.xml, browse-report-template.xml, access-report-template.xml). The report templates are in [tomcat]\webapps\mw_version_number_wc\WEB-INF\config\collections\collection_name.
- Test the metadata reports using test-form.jsp.
Go to HTTP://[your_host_name]:[port]/mw_wc_202/test-form.jsp.
For example: HTTP://myhost.myschool.edu:8080/mw_wc_202/test-form.html - Set up configuration parameters in bucket99.conf, for example, the database connection string. The bucket99.conf file is in [tomcat]\webapps\mw_version_number_wc\WEB-INF\config\collections\collection_name.
- Define queries for metadata reports in bucket99.conf (bucket, browse, access).
- Map item-level metadata to buckets in query-translator.py. The query-translator.py file is in [tomcat]\webapps\mw_version_number_wc\WEB-INF\config\collections\collection_name.
- Test webclient and if problems are encountered, enable query log.
