Release Notes for NetarchiveSuite 3.2.1
This version of the NetarchiveSuite was released on 2007-07-04.
New features since NetarchiveSuite 3.0.0
General
Code released into open source
The code has been cleaned up, non-redistributable material has been removed, and the code is now released into the public. Refer to http://netarchive.dk/suite/ for the website distributing the code, and managing communication around the open source release.
Manuals available
Manuals have been written aimed at
- Technical persons wanting a quick-and-easy way to evaluate the software
- System administrators installing this software
- Non-technical end users using the software to set up and QA harvests
- Developers, wishing to extend, modify, or contribute.
All webpages localised
All the end user web pages are now in a localisation framework, and currently Danish and English are supported. Please refer to the development manual, for how to add support for your own language.
Common Module
New remote file implementation
The code for managing transfers of files from one machine to another has been cleaned up, given a clearer and simpler interface, and been made pluggable.
Currently two implementations exist:
- FTPRemoteFile - transfers files by a push mechanism, uploading them to an FTP server, where another module can retrieve them
- HTTPRemoteFile - transfers files by a pull mechanism, with point-to-point communication using HTTP
Refer to the installation manual for choosing and setting up your remote file implementation, and to the development manual for how to implement another way of transferring files.
Harvester Module
Database agnostica
The code has been refactored to have all database dependant code moved to a single pluggable class, and implementations are now available for embedded Derby, standalone Derby and MySQL. Refer to the installation manual for details on choosing a database backend, and to the development manual for details on how to add support for another database.
Viewerproxy Module
Simpler setup
The viewerproxy no longer requires a setting to know it's own hostname.
