Simple OAI-PMH 2.0 Data Provider
================================
# Simple OAI-PMH 2.0 Data Provider
This is a stand-alone and easy to install data provider for the [Open Archives Initiative's Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH)](http://openarchives.org/pmh/) written in [PHP](http://php.net/). It serves records in any metadata format from directories of XML files using the directory name as metadata prefix, the filename as identifier and the filemtime as datestamp. 0-byte files are considered deleted records and handled accordingly. Resumption tokens are managed using files. Sets are currently not supported.

Just put the records as XML files in the data directory, adjust a few configuration settings and you are ready to go!
A demo installation can be found [here](http://demo.opencultureconsulting.com/oai_pmh/?verb=Identify).

Installation
------------
## Installation
1. Deploy all the files to a webserver.
2. Edit oai2config.php and adjust the settings according to your preferences.
2. Edit `config.php` and adjust the settings according to your preferences.
3. Put the records into the specified data directory. Each record has to be a separate XML file with its identifier as filename (i.e. 12345678.xml). Optionally you can maintain deletions by keeping 0-byte files for deleted records.
3. Create a subdirectory inside the specified data directory for every format (i. e. `metadataPrefix`) you want to provide.
4. Congratulations! Now you are running an OAI-PMH 2.0 compatible data provider.
4. Put the records into the respective directories according to their format. Each record has to be a separate XML file with its `identifier` as filename (e. g. 12345678.xml). Optionally you can maintain deletions by keeping 0-byte files for deleted records.
5. Updating your records from the command line is just as easy with the update.php script!
5. Congratulations! Now you are running an OAI-PMH 2.0 compatible data provider. You can access the entry point by calling `index.php?verb=Identify` in your browser.

## Updating
Updating your records from the command line is just as easy with the `update.php` script! The script automatically handles deletions by maintaining 0-byte files for deleted records. Just call `php update.php` and follow the instructions.
## History
This project was originally initiated in 2002 by [Heinrich Stamerjohanns](mailto:stamer@uni-oldenburg.de) at [University of Oldenburg](https://www.uni-oldenburg.de/en/). His latest implementation can be still found via the [Internet Archive's Wayback Machine](https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://physnet.uni-oldenburg.de/oai/).
It was then modified in 2011 by [Jianfeng Li](mailto:jianfeng.li@adelaide.edu.au) at [University of Adelaide](http://www.adelaide.edu.au/) for [The Plant Accelerator](http://www.plantaccelerator.org.au/). The modified version can be found in the [Google Code Archive](https://code.google.com/archive/p/oai-pmh-2/).

In 2013 [Daniel Neis Araujo](mailto:danielneis@gmail.com) at [Federal University of Santa Catarina](http://en.ufsc.br/) modified the project again in order to integrate it with [Moodle](https://moodle.org/). His implementation can be found on [GitHub](https://github.com/danielneis/oai_pmh). In 2014 [Kazimierz Pietruszewski](mailto:antenna@antenna.io) provided some [further bugfixes](https://github.com/antennaio/oai_pmh).

It is a stand-alone version focused on easy deployment and file based record handling.
