UMD ArchivesSpace Request Fulfillment via Aeon

Overview

The Aeon Fulfillment plugin adds a new request button to archival objects that allows researchers to place Aeon requests for archival objects discovered via the ArchivesSpace Public User Interface.

This plugin extends and undoes some of the Aeon plugin. Essentially it removes the ability to request a top_container from an archival object, but instead directs users to the top_container's record page, where they can then submit the request. This includes some additional instructions for requests.

This plugin has dependencies on the following GitHub repositories:

• https://github.com/AtlasSystems/ArchivesSpace-Aeon-Fulfillment-Plugin
• https://github.com/umd-lib/umd_aeon_fulfillment
• https://github.com/umd-lib/umd-lib-aspace-theme

Note: The "umd-lib-aspace-theme" contains changes to the view layouts for displaying the messages generated by the umd_aeon_fulfillment plugin. It also contains University of Maryland branding.

Installation

1. Clone the following GitHub repositories into the "plugins" directory:

• https://github.com/AtlasSystems/ArchivesSpace-Aeon-Fulfillment-Plugin (as "aeon_fulfillment")
• https://github.com/umd-lib/umd_aeon_fulfillment.git
• https://github.com/umd-lib/umd-lib-aspace-theme.git

2. Add the following to a "common/config/config.rb" file (with appropriate changes for your site):

  AppConfig[:plugins] << 'umd-lib-aspace-theme'
  AppConfig[:public_theme] = 'umd-lib-aspace-theme'

  AppConfig[:plugins] << 'aeon_fulfillment' << 'umd_aeon_fulfillment'
  AppConfig[:aeon_fulfillment] = {
    'test' => {
      requests_permitted_for_containers_only: true,
      aeon_web_url: 'https://aeon.lib.umd.edu/logon/',
      aeon_return_link_label: 'UMD Archives',
      aeon_site_code: 'TEST'
    }
  }

In the above the "test"/"TEST" values refer to the repository the plugin should apply to.
