GOpenDOAR

Simple (Golang) harvesting client for OpenDOAR.

OpenDOAR is a directory of open-access repositories, maintained by Jisc. This client harvests metadata records from OpenDOAR in JSON format and writes them to a local folder as JSON files.

Instructions

1. Build the Go sources into a binary in the usual way.
2. All configuration is in the config.yaml file. The apiKeyENVKey property expects the name of a local ENV variable containing your API key for OpenDOAR. You can get an API key from this page.
3. Assuming that you built the sources to an executable called gopendoar, then run with the following command line: gopendoar harvest --config=./config.yaml --debug=true

This is entirely unsupported software.
