[GeoNetwork-users] simple metadata forms

Hello,

We are customizing the metdata editor form to show simple elements instead
of the whole set of elements that gets displayed and for the custom view we
set flat="true" attribute in config-gui.xml. But we still get the complete
set of elements for Example in Contact Details we get Fascimile etc. How do
we control this?

Thanks.

Regards

Hi,

This is not directly an answer to your specific question but a more general comment on simpler data entry & query tools.

My organisation is developing a "postcard" tool, with subject areas on a tab based form, like what, who, where, when, etc to provide a less complex GUI to interact with. This is not yet complete, nor (yet) available externally.

Another agency I work with has developed a different front end to the underlying catalogue
see: http://www.geodata.govt.nz and reused at (query only) http://www.os2020.org.nz/data-and-reports/. This is built into the Open Source Silverstripe CMS, and is freely reuseable

In Australia there is the ANZMEST Lite interface, and the xMET inteface.

So in my experience, most places that seek to simplify the interface are using a completely different front end, using CSW or other supported protocol to communicate with the underlying Geonetwork catalogue.

I'm not sure if this might prove an easier way to build a simpler interface.

Cheers,

Brent Wood

Hi Kumaran

Which version of GeoNetwork are you using? For 2.6.4 there was a bug on
flat attribute management.

See rev 8539 to fix it. It just requires 2 small changes in the file
xsl/metadata.xsl to get it working properly.

Jose García

Hello Jose,

I checked out the code for rev 8539 and then built a war file and deployed to Tomcat. Enabled Inspire View through system configuration then went to Create New Metadata screen and I still see the whole fields when flat=”true” is set to Inspire in config-gui.xml

Do we need to do something else to filter other fields in Point of Contact . Please let me know

Please refer the attached snapshot.

Thanks.

Regards

Kumaran
