archivesspace
7 sites
Security covered
This module provides content types, modules, and plugins necessary for harvesting archival descriptions from an ArchivesSpace instance for public display in a Drupal site.
Note, this module may also be referred to as "AS→D" for convenience to disambiguate it from the ArchivesSpace software.
AS→D closely tracks and is designed to be used with Islandora 8.
Quick Start Guide
Assuming the Drupal site and ArchivesSpace are installed on the same host:
- Install the module and all dependencies. Composer is recommended:
composer require drupal/archivesspace - Enable the appropriate submodule for your site (i.e. either stand-alone OR with Islandora). E.g.
drush en -y archivesspace_defaultsif not using Islandora ORdrush en -y archivesspace_islandora_defaultsto use with Islandora. - Update the ArchivesSpace settings (API endpoint, username, and password) @
http://yourdrupal.example/admin/config/archivesspace. - Run the migrations. (E.g. using migrate tools (not included by default):
drush mim --all) Note: most of the migrations will run relatively quickly, within a few minutes. However, the final migration, archival objects, can take a very long time to process for large sites (more than an hour).
