Provide a utility to replace Islandora Datastream CRUD?

[mjordan]

Islandora Datastream CRUD is used by many Islandora 7.x repo admins to do things like:

• fetch datastream content as files
• push files to replace datastream content
• delete datastreams
• trigger derivative regeneration

In CLAW, instead of datastreams, we have Media entities, but just like in 7.x, we may want to replace or delete specific media associated with Islandora nodes from the command line. Since we're standardizing around Migrate, we should figure out if that will let us replace specific media (tagged as a "Service File" or "Thumbnail" for example) from a CSV, etc. If not, we might want a command-line tool like CRUD to do that sort of thing.

We'll also have tools like Views Bulk Operations for updating fielded metadata values as well, which will probably replace the use of CRUD to replace MODS datastreams.

Thoughts?

I've hacked together a simple proof of concept that:

• prints the titles of each node identified in an input file listing node IDs
• fetches and prints the Fedora URIs for each node identified in an input file
• fetches and prints the Solr document for each node identified in an input file

I would add that a lot of site administrators either don't have the permissions or the skills/desire to learn a command line utility, but would thrive with a GUI. This is essentially what Islandora Datastreams IO provides over the top of Islandora CRUD, but maybe this time around they could be packaged together. Adding an admin menu to allow you to do all the same operations available to the command line script would be a huge win for users.

Update: I'd put my money on https://github.com/mjordan/islandora_workbench as a replacement for Datastream CRUD, along with https://github.com/mjordan/islandora_workbench_desktop if that's your style.
