DESCRIPTION

m.csw.update updates the CSW connections resource XML file (required by the g.gui.cswbrowser and g.gui.metadata modules). If the -p flag is used only printing instead of writing is done.

The module also allows validate the connections resources XML file against XSD schema, remove invalid and not active CSW connections resources candidates.

NOTES

For dependencies and installation instructions see the wiki page.

Stored new connections resources candidates are only those being active and valid.

Writing new connections resources candidates

Default source of the new candidates is a spreadsheet file (*.ods), which is to be stored in the module's config/ directory. It is possible to use the updated document directly from the web address, see -w flag.

EXAMPLES

Import and store new resources connections candidates (default):

m.csw.update url=API-cases.ods

Store new resources connections candidates along with printing a summary info:

m.csw.update -s

Print only all new connections resources candidates (with following format '{Country}, {Governmental level}, {API provider}: {URL}') with summary info:

m.csw.update -ps

Print only active new connections resources candidates with summary info:

m.csw.update -pas

Validate the default connections resources XML file against XSD schema plus validate individual CSW connection resources (remove and print non active CSWs):

m.csw.update -xc
