[GeoNetwork-devel] Metadata insert using Java

GeoNetwork GeoNetwork Developer
1

Hi,

I am a newbie to Geonetwork. I tried following 2 approaches to insert metadata into GeoNetwork catalog. Nothing worked for me.

Approach 1:

I wrote Java code that uses HTTP Post menthod to login & to insert metadata into Geonetwork server. But the response code that I get back is 302 (redirection) and not 200 as expected.

Please wait…

Approach 2:

I tried to use ‘geonetwork-manager’ but again I am not able to login or insert metadata.
https://code.google.com/p/geonetwork-manager/

‘Insert a Metadata’ example in the link does not work as it fails with the error message 'could not log in"

Please let me know what am I doing wrong.

Note: I am testing GeoNetwork as user admin

Hi,

Thank for the quick responses.
I am using GeoNetwork version 2.10.1 (installed on windows using geonetwork-install-2.10.1-0.exe)

  1. I am fine with not using ‘geonetwork-manager’ as it may be not compatible with GeoNetwork that I use.
    TransactionTest.java in attachment is the code that I wrote to login into GeoNetwork (which did not work).

  2. Based on comment from Francois, I tested TestGNLogin and I am able to login successfully. This means I need to store cookies to insert metadata. Isn’t?

The task I am trying to get done (logging into GeoNetwork and inserting Metadata, programmatically via Java) is not unique and I do not need to re-invent the wheel. While searching for an existing solution, I ended up with ‘geonetwork-manager’ but it is obsolete.

regards

Isn't?

You can use cookies or send basic authentication on the headers on each
request you make. It depends on what http client you are using.

Metadata, programmatically via Java) is not unique and I do not need to
