Issue 439

Github issue: (#439)

What does this Pull Request do?

Adds a MODS metadata parser for OAI-PMH toolchains.

What's new?

Adds class src/metadataparsers/mods/OaiToMods.php. During development I found another issue which are not directly related to this new class but that I would like to include in this PR since it will affect the ability to test the new class:

• a bug in the OaipmhIslandoraObj.php filegetter that caused MIK to fail when the OAI endpoint contained an eplicit port number

How should this be tested?

A smoketest is required since there are no PHPUnit tests for this change.

Reproducing the problems

• Using the .ini file attached below, configure an OAI-PMH job that harvests from a collection on a Vagrant (e.g., host is http://localhost:8000).
• MIK will fail. Two specific things to look for in mik.log:
  • Your MIK log will contain HTTP "Name or service unknown" errors, since localhost8000 is not valid hostname. This failure happens when MIK attempts to download the OBJ.
  • The metadata logged in mik.log will be MODS, despite the .ini configuration setting [METADATA_PARSER] class = dc\OaiToDc

Confirming the fix

• Check out the issue-439 branch.
• run composer dump-autoload
• Delete the MIK output and temp directories populated during replicating the problem.
• Rerun MIK using the same configuration file as above, after swapping the [METADATA_PARSER]class to use mods\OaiToMods.
• Your MIK log should be clean, and the XML files in the output directory should be MODS.

Additional Notes

The wiki entries of the OAI-PMH toolchains will need to be updated to indicate how MODS can be harvested.

Interested parties

@MarcusBarnes. @bondjimbond used the OAI toolchain frequently and may want to smoketest.

Smoketest ran as expected. Reminder that we'll have to update the wiki entries of the OAI-PMH toolchains to indicate how MODS can be harvested.

@MarcusBarnes I've updated all but the OJS OAI toolchain to include the new MODS functionality. OJS doesn't support MODS.

Mind if I link the "Toolchain: OAI PMH for Islandora repositories" from the wiki table of contents? @flummingbird noted in #432 that it isn't linked, and now that we have a real application for it, it might as well be.
