[GeoNetwork-users] Enabling notifications:guidelines

Hi there,

Are there any guidelines for enabling notifications (v2.6.3)?

Under administration > notifications, I have added a name, username and
password, and tried adding various URL addresses. The URL represents a
single record? E.g., http://domain.com/geonetwork/srv/en/metadata.show?id=14
?

I've also inserted the email address of the person to be notified in their
user profile (under user management).

I've also selected 'notify' in the records to be notified of changes (under
privileges) and selected the group to which user belongs.

Is there something else that I need to to? Is the URL correct?

Thanks for your help.

Richard

It appears that I misunderstood how the notifications work. I understand that
it can generate a feed of changes from the GeoNetwork instance that can be
displayed online?

I'd be very grateful if someone could point me to some guidelines on how to
enable/configure.

Thanks,
Rich

Hi Rich

The purpose of the notifications module is mainly send the metadata changes
to an external *custom* service, so this service can do it's own work (for
example, keep in synch metadata in other db). Metadata notifications it's
not using RSS feeds to publish changes, although should be a good
improvement.

The custom service you need to develop to handle notifications should manage
these parameters:

   - action: update|delete (update should handle both inserts and updates)
   - uuid : metadata uuid
   - XMLFile: metadata xml content

You can find mode detail in MetadataNotifierClient class
