13:36 pdurbin oh, cool. "#PKP on IRC: http://pkp.sfu.ca/sysadmins
17:35 bhui joined #dvn
17:35 pdurbin bhui: welcome!
17:35 bhui pdurbin: thx :)
17:36 pdurbin bhui: #pkp seems nice. a little quiet. not so different than this channel :)
17:37 bhui yeah, #pkp is very quiet
17:37 bhui the pkp devs don't ever hang out there...
17:37 bhui i am trying to revive it, but not much going on yet
17:37 pdurbin bhui: that's unpossible. http://pkp.sfu.ca/sysadmins says "PKP developers do hang out there" ;)
17:37 bhui orly?!
17:38 bhui uh huh
17:38 bhui i have a feeling that page is rather old
17:42 pdurbin oh
17:43 pdurbin well, not everyone is as into IRC as I am :)
17:43 bhui it is also Canada Day!
17:43 bhui yeah, i think a lot of devs are into IRC though :)
17:43 pdurbin oh yeah
17:44 pdurbin hmm, what's our Canadian doing at work today?!
17:44 bhui hence my attempts to resuscitate #pkp, fwiw
17:45 pdurbin sure sure. freenode is great
17:45 bhui agreed
17:45 pdurbin bhui: and I had asked you in #pkp about http://pkp.sfu.ca/wiki/index.php?title=PKP/Dataverse_Network_Integration but you said you don't know much about it, right?
17:45 bhui pdurbin: that's right
17:46 pdurbin ok. no worries. I'm staring to work on the Dataverse side of things in this ticket: https://redmine.hmdc.harvard.edu/issues/3108
17:46 pdurbin working on implementing a SWORDv2 server, basically
17:46 bhui that sounds great
17:46 bhui will be super useful
17:47 pdurbin yep
17:47 pdurbin bhui: do you use OJS?
17:48 bhui yeah, we use it here and i'm the main developer on our install, and i'm also working on a contribution to the main PKP codebase for the 3.0 branch/release
17:48 bhui here: http://www.escholarship.org/about_technical_documentation.html
17:48 bhui for some reason github is not showing my commits… :)
17:48 bhui i need to fix that
17:49 bhui (i don't have commit access to the main pkp repo — just talking about the cdl instance)
17:50 pdurbin ah. California Digital Library: http://www.escholarship.org/about_cdl.html
17:50 bhui ah yes, yup :)
17:50 pdurbin :)
17:51 pdurbin I was reading that OJS already supports SWORD: http://swordapp.org/2010/12/sword-and-the-open-journal-systems/
17:51 pdurbin I feel like somewhere else I read that OJS supports SWORD v1...
17:51 pdurbin bhui: do you know if OJS supports SWORD v2 already?
17:53 bhui well, i'm not totally sure, but in searching the forum i see some reference to it: http://pkp.sfu.ca/support/forum/
17:55 pdurbin bhui: hmm, yes, in November Alec Smecher wrote "The OJS plugin was written for SWORD 1.x" at http://pkp.sfu.ca/support/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=9178&p=36150&hilit=swordv2#p36150
17:55 pdurbin and I recognize that name from https://github.com/pkp/ojs/tree/master/plugins/generic/sword
17:55 bhui you recognize the name alec smecher?
17:55 bhui yeah, he is the lead PKP developer
17:56 pdurbin I see
17:57 pdurbin bhui: is it pretty easy to set up OJS?
17:57 bhui hmm, yes and no? ;)
17:57 pdurbin heh
17:57 pdurbin so here's what I'm thinking...
17:58 pdurbin I have some SWORD v2 proof of concept code in a Vagrant environment at https://github.com/dvn/swordpoc
17:58 pdurbin bhui: have you heard of Vagrant?
17:58 bhui i have
17:58 pdurbin awesome
18:00 pdurbin so maybe a Vagrant environment could be used for testing the interoperability between the OJS plugin (the upcoming one that supports SWORD v2) and the Dataverse SWORD v2 server implementation I'm working on
18:02 bhui right, yeah. i think that could be pretty nifty :)
18:02 pdurbin :)
18:03 bhui i know people here at #cdlib are playing with spinning up dev environments — can't remember now if they're using vagrant or something else
18:03 bhui i know they're having fun, in any case
18:03 pdurbin the best part about vagrant is `vagrant destroy` ;)
18:04 pdurbin seriously though... because then you just type `vagrant up` and you get back to square one :)
18:04 bhui pretty cool :)
18:08 pdurbin bhui: sounds like you don't use the current OJS SWORD plugin in your installation
18:08 bhui pdurbin: no, we don't
18:09 pdurbin bhui: ok. I'm new to SWORD and trying to get up to speed with it
18:10 pdurbin so far, the only SWORD "client" I've used is curl ;)
18:11 bhui what more do you need? :)
18:11 pdurbin heh. touche
18:11 bhui i have no experience with sword. am pretty new to all of this library stuff...
18:11 pdurbin it's a whole world... the library stuff :)
18:12 bhui it really, really is :)
18:13 pdurbin bhui: well, if bumb into SWORD people, please send them my way :)
18:13 pdurbin bump*
18:14 bhui will do :)
18:14 pdurbin thanks :)
18:15 pdurbin bhui: not sure why your commits aren't showing up, by the way
18:16 bhui pdurbin: might have something to do with the fact that i always push from a role account
18:16 bhui in fact, i'm sure that's it
18:16 bhui well, pretty sure
18:17 pdurbin ah. a github "organization"
18:26 bhui yeah, it's all weird
