[GeoNetwork-users] GN 3.2.0 Red Asterisks [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Hi Guys
Start with an apology: I suspect this has been discussed earlier

Note: I'm using ISO19115-3 as my base metadata standard

I have inherited a v3.2 editing interfaces.
     There are elements that have a red asterisk by them
          Some are mandatory in the XSDs
          Some are optional in the XSDs
     There are elements that have red boxes
          Some are mandatory in the XSDs
          Some are optional in the XSDs
Can someone please tell me from whence those are controlled
In version 2.X documentation there is a discussion about "Highly Recommended" but I cannot find where these are set in V3.X
     As part of a Community of Practice, we would like to highlight elements that are of particular use
           Eg mro:MD_Identification<<Abstract>>/mri:purpose

Cheers

Hi Evert

The mandatory stuff is controlled mainly in this code:
https://github.com/geonetwork/core-geonetwork/blob/3.2.x/web/src/main/webapp/xslt/ui-metadata/form-builder.xsl#L108-L119
for all metadata profiles.

In that snippet is check if the cardinalities of the parent (if available)
or from the element. This is usually not useful at all as in some profiles
you want to set mandatory elements also for elements that are optional in
the xsd.

For some projects we have extended to take also the mandatory conditions
from labels.xml, so for example in this case Use Constraints will get the
mandatory indicator:

<element id="71.0" name="gmd:useConstraints">
        <label>Use Constraints</label>
        <description></description>
* <condition>mandatory</condition>*
</element>

Code snippet updated:

<xsl:variable name="isRequired" as="xs:boolean">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when
      test="($parentEditInfo and $parentEditInfo/@min = 1 and
$parentEditInfo/@max = 1) or
      (not($parentEditInfo) and $editInfo and $editInfo/@min = 1 and
$editInfo/@max = 1)">
      <xsl:value-of select="true()"/>
    </xsl:when>
* <xsl:when test="gn-fn-metadata:getLabel($schema, name(),
$labels)/condition = 'mandatory'">*
* <xsl:value-of select="true()"/>*
* </xsl:when>*
    <xsl:otherwise>
      <xsl:value-of select="false()"/>
    </xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

I'll check with other developers for any comment about the code and to
commit it.

Regards,
Jose García
