Hiiii! Good morning :D
15:02 Thalia_UM
A question
15:04 Thalia_UM
How can I add a form field to appear when exporting the metadata?
15:08 Thalia_UM
e.g. <dcterms:coverage>Mexico</dcterms:coverage>
15:50 pdurbin
Thalia_UM: good morning. You're talking about exporting a dataset in Dublin Core format, right?
15:51 Thalia_UM
yes
15:51 Thalia_UM
But show more fields
15:51 Thalia_UM
as in the example that i put
15:55 pdurbin
Thalia_UM: I'd like to show you why we show the field we show. Can you please click "Dataverse 4.0 Metadata Crosswalk: DDI, DataCite, DC, DCTerms, VO, ISA-Tab" at http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.8.4/user/appendix.html
15:57 pdurbin
Then can you please click the "Geospatial Metadata" tab?
15:59 Thalia_UM
Al completar los campos y exportar los metadatos, no veo todos los valores, entonces ¿Cómo muestro los otros campos como la etiqueta <dcterms: coverage> example?

Hi Thalia. :)
16:04 Thalia_UM
Hi jgautier :)
16:05 Thalia_UM
Sorry philip Here is in english
16:05 Thalia_UM
When filling out the fields and exporting the metadata, I do not see all the values, so How I show the other fields as the label <dcterms:coverage> example?
16:06 pdurbin
Thalia_UM: yes, I understand. I'm trying to have you look a specific cell of a spreadsheet that explains why "Geographic Coverage" is blank.
16:06 jgautier
Thalia, so you'd like to know how to include more Dataverse metadata in the Dublin Core export that people can get through the dataset landing page UI?
16:07 pdurbin
jgautier: of course, I may be confused! Thanks for popping in here. :)
16:07 Thalia_UM
Yes
16:08 Thalia_UM
:)
16:11 pdurbin
Thalia_UM: you see the blank cell I'm talking about in the spreadsheet?
16:12 Thalia_UM
What column?
16:13 Thalia_UM
"watermark"
16:14 pdurbin
Thalia_UM: The spreadsheet is "Dataverse 4.0 Metadata Crosswalk: DDI, DataCite, DC, DCTerms, VO, ISA-Tab" at http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.8.4/user/appendix.html
16:15 Thalia_UM
I'm already in the spreadsheet
16:15 Thalia_UM
I'm in the Geospatial tab
16:16 jgautier
Are you referring to the cell I4 pdurbin?
16:17 Thalia_UM
advancedSearchField??
16:18 jgautier
Ah! Okay, so I think you're looking at a .tsv file for one of the metadata blocks.
16:20 jgautier
How Dataverse metadata is mapped to other standards like dublin core isn't there. It's here: https://goo.gl/AGj39b
16:21 jgautier
(There's a link to it at the bottom of the User Guides appendix that pdurbin linked to, as well.)
16:22 Thalia_UM
yes
16:23 Thalia_UM
I'm already in the excel file, I see the field blank
16:23 jgautier
So in the Geospatial tab, the I column has the current mapping for the dcterms export. We're using dcterms:spatial instead of the dcterms:coverage.
16:24 Thalia_UM
Ok
16:25 Thalia_UM
Well, We are used dataverse 4.7
16:27 jgautier
Ah, this is my fault. The title was 4.0+. I changed it to 4.8.4+ but that's misleading. I think the dc:terms mapping for all 4.0+ Dataverses' is still the same.
16:28 jgautier
When you export dublin core of a dataset with any geographic coverage fields, is that metadata not put into dcterms:spatial?
16:29 Thalia_UM
No
16:33 Thalia_UM
There are fields that don't appear when exporting the metadata, for example affiliation, identifier scheme, identifier
16:34 Thalia_UM
and country
16:39 jgautier
You're right. Many of the fields don't appear in the dcterms export. (Although country should be in dcterms:spatial. It is for a few Dataverse installations I checked that are running 4.7.1.)
16:39 jgautier
Dataverse developers would know the technical details for including more metadata in the dcterms export.
16:40 pdurbin
jgautier: well, we should start by opening an issue, right? Are you saying you found a bug?
16:40 Thalia_UM
Can that be modified so that it can be exported?
16:42 Thalia_UM
I get it
16:44 pdurbin
Thalia_UM: if it's a bug, maybe you can fix it and make a pull request
16:45 Thalia_UM
What is pull request?
16:48 pdurbin
Thalia_UM: these are the open pull requests for Dataverse: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/pulls
16:49 pdurbin
A pull request is a proposed change to the code. Here is an example of a one line change: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/pull/4400/files
16:51 Thalia_UM
I get it
16:55 pdurbin
Thalia_UM: can you please try running the test at src/test/java/edu/harvard/iq/dataverse/export/dublincore/DublinCoreExportUtilTest.java ? For me it's showing <dcterms:spatial>USA</dcterms:spatial> for example.
16:57 Thalia_UM
How?
16:57 pdurbin
Are you using Netbeans?
16:58 Thalia_UM
No
16:59 pdurbin
Oh. Here's how the dcterms:spatial output of that test looks in Netbeans: https://i.imgur.com/6KT85QP.png
16:59 Thalia_UM
I work from the xhtml files, and the "dvndb" database, only perform the installation of dataverse.
17:00 pdurbin
ok
17:01 Thalia_UM
It unfold metadata
17:03 pdurbin
Unfold? I don't understand.
17:04 Thalia_UM
I saw that you print the metadata list at Netbeans
17:04 Thalia_UM
I'm sorry :-$
17:05 Thalia_UM
i don't know some words
17:06 Thalia_UM
But this year i am going to learn speak more english.
17:08 pdurbin
You're doing fine. :)
17:10 pdurbin
What I'm tying to say is that according to that test, the code is putting dcterms:spatial in the Dublin Core output, like the spreadsheet and jgautier says they should.
17:11 Thalia_UM
I understand your point
17:12 Thalia_UM
It's true
17:14 pdurbin
So are you all set? Can you use dcterms:spatial instead of dcterms:coverage?
17:26 jgautier
I have to leave IRC for a few, but just want to say in addition to fixing the bug where dcterms:spatial isn't being used (if there is a bug), adding more metadata to the dcterms export is something that can be done. It sounded like you were interested in that as well. Not sure that all Dataverse metadata can be mapped to dcterms, but certainly more can. Please feel free to open an issue for that as well. Mapping additions and changes we're
17:37 Thalia_UM
Thanks
17:38 Thalia_UM
Not yet :S
17:38 Thalia_UM
Philip
17:40 Thalia_UM
Can i change the design of dataverse modifying the xhtml files?
17:47 pdurbin
Thalia_UM: no, you should use the new customization feature
17:48 jri joined #dataverse
17:48 Thalia_UM
Do you talk about the new version of dataverse?
17:48 Thalia_UM
4.8.4?
17:49 pdurbin
No, 4.7: https://dataverse.org/blog/dataverse-47-release
17:49 pdurbin
http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.8.4/installation/config.html#branding-your-installation
17:50 pdurbin
You can custom CSS to change the design, for example.
17:51 Thalia_UM
Yes, I understand
17:52 Thalia_UM
Thanks Philip
17:52 Thalia_UM
:)
17:55 pdurbin
sure
18:39 Thalia_UM
Excuse me Philip, Where can i create the following directories for the path /var/www/dataverse/branding?? Does it thave to be inside dataverse or in docroot?
18:40 pdurbin
I think it can be anywhere, but I'm not sure.
18:48 Thalia_UM
Thanks Philip :)
18:50 pdurbin
sure

I have a basic question about uplaoding data
20:36 pdurbin
brad61: shoot
20:36 pdurbin
and welcome!
20:36 brad61
can I upload a nested set of folders?
20:36 brad61
I tried compressing and uploading a .zip file, only to learn that it automatically unpacks
20:36 brad61
thanks!
20:37 pdurbin
We get this question a lot. Please see https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2249
20:37 pdurbin
The work around is to double-zip the file or upload a tarball instead.
20:38 brad61
okay I will double-zip. Thanks for the help!
20:38 pdurbin
oh sure
20:38 brad61
Just wanna lend my support to making this a feature. So much of good data management is about nested folders
20:38 brad61
and Dataverse should be encouraging good data hygiene!
20:39 pdurbin
brad61: you're completely right. Can you please leave a comment on that issue with your thoughts?
20:39 brad61
yes I will! thanks for the help
20:39 pdurbin
happy to help
20:44 Thalia_UM
If I modified the CSS does not it change in the interface?
20:45 pdurbin
Thalia_UM: it should work.
20:54 Thalia_UM
Thanks ^^
20:55 pdurbin
does it work?
21:44 Thalia_UM
Yes it is work :)
