[ckan-dev] CSW harvester - getting started?

[Derek Hohls]

I appreciate that; but it looks like the output created by a harvesting process;
I need to see what the inputs are that generate the output and what the steps
are to make it "go".  Right now I still only have the same display as listed in
my original post.

Thanks
Derek

Here is an example harvesting a geonode/pyCSW endpoint:http://dev.openei.org/datasets/harvest/nepa-node

Hi all,

Can anyone provide a simple link to an actual working example of using the CSW harvester; there are detailed instructions on what all the parameters mean on their git site, but this has not helped me to get an instance working.

I have tried through the CKAN web interface (http://localhost/harvest/) to set up a test example:

URL: http://data.linz.govt.nz/feeds/csw?service=CSW&version=2.0.2&request=GetCapabilities
Title: LINZ Data Service
Source: CSW Server
Update Frequency: Manual
Configuration: { "remote_groups": "create", "remote_orgs": "create", "user":"derek", "private_datasets": false}
Organisation: linz

The URL above is one which works and can be tested from a browser.  (I have also tried with the  Configuration setting empty.)

I have tried the Reharvest as well, but the only output that ever shows on the "Jobs" tab is:

Harvest Jobs
    Job: dfa53fbc-4c11-421c-9c7d-b1e768c2785d Running
    Started: Not yet ? Finished: Not yet

I am sure all of this is obvious to experienced users, but it does not seem so simple for beginners.

Any advice, insights or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Derek
