Summary
Metrics:
- Deployed v4.20-qdr8 to stage and configured metrics app install to work with it. Awaiting testing.
- Updated PR to make db update script idempotent (good practice and helpful on dev where I'd already updated the DB for 4.20-qdr8)
- Demoed new metrics capabilities in TAB meeting
v5.0 Updates
- Debugged 5.0 dev instance failure (path issues in domain.xml)
- Updated/removed old jvm-options per 5.0 install instructions
- Updated the guava library to match next DV release (in prep for contributing google archiving code)
- Fixed additional merge issues including a background panel hiding a Dataset save button.
- Ready for testing on dev to find issues related to merging QDR customizations with 5.0 design changes.
File Replace Updates
- started work on being able to replace files in draft version
- as part of that, fixed issue reported by community that replaced files were getting renamed (with a "_1" added) and submitted PR
- completed initial file replace of draft-only files
- looking into how to preserve file metadata during replace (#4380) - trying to update what shows in the file upload table by default to match old file (which still allows a curator to edit prior to saving).
Plans
- Ready to deploy v4.20-qdr8 after testing
- Work through any v5.0 issues (see discussion)
- Finish #4380
- Look into file DOI reservation
Still TBD:
- Drupal 9
For Discussion
- The metrics API should be ready to test. v4.20-qdr8 is on stage. One issue that arose in demoing - the Trachtenburg papers collection has 3 linked data projects which aren't counted (reasonable to avoid double counting) - we may want to think about moving them (or coming up with a good way to handle linked metrics)
- v5.0 - I think 'fatal' merge issues are fixed - things that just break the display. Which means that v5.0-1dr-dev is ready for testers to go through and capture any/all style, adapting functionality issues.
- File replacement - reasonable to try replacing metadata defaults in the upload form? That would, for example, pick the old file name for a file that was just uploaded - perhaps disconcerting, but reasonable in a replace operation? (So far haven't figured it out and it may not be possible, but is this a reasonable approach to start with?)
