Overview As of 2023/07/20, this module appears to still be in beta, but I had the opportunity to try out “Omeka-S-module-HistoryLog,” a module for recording change history in Omeka S. Here are my notes. https://github.com/Daniel-KM/Omeka-S-module-HistoryLog Installation As noted in the documentation, you may need to install the Generic module beforehand. https://github.com/Daniel-KM/Omeka-S-module-HistoryLog#installation Otherwise, the installation procedure is the same as for standard modules. After installation, the module will appear in the module list as shown below. ...

Overview I updated Mirador to 2.7 in the Omeka Classic IIIF Toolkit. You can check the source code on the following page. https://github.com/nakamura196/IiifItems You can also download the zip file from the following URL. https://github.com/nakamura196/IiifItems/releases/download/1.1.1/IiifItems-1.1.1.zip What This Enables By using Mirador 2.7, it becomes possible to display images in the viewer even if they do not support the IIIF Image API. This makes it possible to add and manage annotations using Mirador for publicly available images as well. ...

Overview I had the opportunity to set up health checks for Virtuoso running on Amazon EC2, so this is a memo of the process. Specifically, when Virtuoso (e.g., https://xxx.zzz/sparql) starts returning errors due to some issue, the details are sent via email notification. Method The following article introduces how to set up a Virtuoso RDF store on Amazon EC2. The above setup uses an ELB. Only one change needs to be made from the above article. The Health check path was set to /, but this should be changed to the path to the SPARQL endpoint (e.g., /sparql). ...

After using the zoomTo method in OpenSeadragon, you can call viewport.applyConstraints() to ensure the viewport is adjusted to satisfy the configured constraints. This is useful when zoom or pan operations exceed the viewport constraints. Here is an example: // `viewer` is an OpenSeadragon instance const zoomLevel = 2.0; viewer.viewport.zoomTo(zoomLevel); viewer.viewport.applyConstraints(); In the code above, we first set the viewport zoom level to a specified value. Then, by calling the applyConstraints method, the viewport is adjusted to satisfy its constraints. In other words, if the specified zoom level exceeds the configured constraints, the zoom level will be adjusted to fit within those constraints. ...

(The following is a response from ChatGPT. I hope it serves as a helpful reference.) The difference between fitBounds and fitBoundsWithConstraints in OpenSeadragon (OSD) lies in whether or not constraints are applied. OSD is a JavaScript library with advanced zoom and panning capabilities, used for handling deeply zoomable images and content. Among its methods, fitBounds and fitBoundsWithConstraints are used to fit the viewport (display area) to specific bounds. fitBounds(rectangle, immediately): Fits the viewport to the specified rectangle. If the immediately parameter is true, the viewport fits instantly without animation. If false, the viewport fits with animation. ...

Overview This article introduces one approach for bulk deleting collections in Omeka Classic. In Omeka Classic (Version 3.1.1), there is no GUI for selecting and deleting multiple collections at once. However, this functionality is available for items. Therefore, we will use the API to perform bulk deletion of collections. Obtaining the API Key Follow the instructions below to enable the API and generate an API key: https://omeka.org/classic/docs/Admin/Settings/API_Settings/ Specifically, first access the following page: ...

Method I documented the method in the following notebook. https://colab.research.google.com/github/nakamura196/ndl_ocr/blob/main/ArchivematicaのAPIを使ってみる.ipynb Summary I hope this serves as a helpful reference for using the Archivematica API. ...

Overview This article describes how to set the default sort order for items displayed on per-item-set pages in Omeka S. Specifically, this concerns the initial sort order for screens like the following. By default, it is set to “Date created” in “Descending” order. The method differs between Omeka v4 and v3, so I’ll explain each below. v4 Access the following per-site settings screen. /admin/site/s/#site-settings Then, set the field and ascending/descending order in the “Item browse defaults” section below. ...

I looked into how to perform sorting and pagination with Strapi v4’s GraphQL. Documentation was found at the following location. https://docs.strapi.io/dev-docs/api/graphql Specifically, pagination and sorting could be performed by writing queries like the following. query { blogPosts(pagination: {page: 1, pageSize: 10}, sort: "createdAt:desc") { meta { pagination { total } } data { id attributes { createdAt } } } } I hope this serves as a helpful reference.

Overview I had the opportunity to enable OpenAPI in Drupal, so this is a memo. Note that the JSON:API module has already been enabled. Installing Modules Install the following two modules. https://www.drupal.org/project/openapi https://www.drupal.org/project/openapi_jsonapi As a result, JSON can be obtained from the following URL. /openapi/jsonapi Accessing the following displays “No UI …”.

Overview I created examples of using OpenSeadragon and OpenSeadragon SVG Overlay with Nuxt3. The image used is (Catfish with Ofuda on Kaname-ishi) “National Diet Library Collection”. OpenSeadragon https://nuxt3-demo-nine.vercel.app/osd OpenSeadragon SVG Overlay https://nuxt3-demo-nine.vercel.app/osd-svg Method A key point was preparing a plugin file as shown below. This resolved issues that occurred during SSR. https://github.com/nakamura196/nuxt3-demo/blob/main/plugins/osd.client.js For the SVG overlay implementation, I referenced the following. https://github.com/openseadragon/svg-overlay/blob/master/openseadragon-svg-overlay.js Summary There may be better ways to write this, but I hope it is helpful for using OpenSeadragon with Nuxt3. ...

I had the opportunity to use Drupal as a headless CMS and tried the Disable UI module, which restricts UI access to administrators and similar roles. https://www.drupal.org/project/disable_ui As a result, access to the top page was displayed as follows. On the other hand, the enabled JSON:API was accessible to non-logged-in users. /jsonapi/ We hope this serves as a useful reference when using Drupal as a headless CMS.
