I'm using GN 2.6.0 and i want to add metadata. So i login as admin click
'new metadata' and then i can select a template from a list of templates. I
can see several templates available such as 'Template for Vector data in
ISO19139' etc, but i can not find something like 'Template
ISO19139-INSPIRE...'. So the question is how can i create metadata using
inspire template?
we started like that as well, but it might be as wrong for you as it is for
us. An admin should never create any metadata, but templates for the all oft
the users of your GeoNetwork. Off course the admin is allowed to do
everything, but there are other roles for the users in GeoNetwork.
Registered User - Can read all metadata of his group, even that one that has
not yet been published for e.g. internet-csw.
Editor - Creates metadata based on templates.
Reviewer - Reviews if the edited metadata is ok for publication via CSW. If
it is ok, he publishes the metadata by giving "prvileges" to the groups.
User administrator - Only creates new users in his group. The User
Administrator creates the templates for the users of the group (based on the
templates given by the Admin).
Admin - Only creates new groups and one user administrator per group. The
admin creates the templates for the users of GeoNetwork.
As an admin you have a look on the templates given automatically. Usually
those will not satisfy the needs of e.g. INSPIRE. You take one of the
templates which is most satisfying and then you create another template
based on that one. In order to create templates you have to change the
drop-down list on the bottom of the "editing-mode" GUI. For example for
INSPIRE you may like to fill in the hierarchy level series, dataset, service
or s.th. If you have pre-filled most of the fields, you save your new
template with a reasonable name given in the title-field.
After you checked your new template, you give "privileges" to the group or
to all for publication. Make sure that only admin has the right to change
the template. The users with the privileges now can see your new template by
clicking "New metadata". They are able to create templates of their own
(based on your template) or they may create new metadata.
If you have many users in your GeoNetwork it might be more useful to hide
the given templates to those users, so they are not confused by too many
templates they might chose between. You hide the templates by taking away
the privileges for special groups or you simply delete the given templates.
(If you click menue "Administration/ Add templates" you are able to create
them once more, even if you deleted them before.)
But, I see, you have the same problem as we have. There are much too many
fields in the GUI for creating metadata. It is possible to get rid of one or
the other, but the point is: we need to know how to not to show this and
that field. This still is magic to me... let´s see if somebody tells us how
to do it...
Yes, hidding the attributes is the problem now. I could traverse the JDOM
element tree and remove appropriate elements by some sort of name string
matching, within the service, before the result gets exported into html and
sent to the client. But that's not a good solution afaik.
