Source of mappings from MIMETYPE to file extension
Controls filename extension mapping when the datastream ID is used
as the source of the filename. Values are as above.
Maximum number of Fedora http client connections allowed to a given host.
Number of seconds Fedora http client will wait for data coming across an
established http connection.
Defines the host name for the Fedora server, as seen from the
outside world.
Controls filename extension mapping when the datastream label is used
as the source of the filename. Values are always: always generate an extension
based on the MIMETYPE, using the default extension if none can be determined;
ifmissing: generate an extension if the filename obtained from the source does not
already contain one (again returning the default if there is no MIMETYPE-to-extension
mapping is found); never: never generate an extension, use the filename from the source
as-is
Maximun number of redirects the Fedora http client will follow (only if
httpClientFollowRedirects is set to true.)
The value to be set for the User-Agent HTTP request header.
Maximum number of total Fedora http client connections allowed at once.
determines the source of the filename generated when download=true
on a datastream dissemination. Value is space separated list of label: use the datastream label;
id: use the datastream ID; rels: use the value defined in RELS-INT. Each
source is checked in order, and the first containing a value is used. Omit
any of the sources if that source is never to be used. If no sources are to be used,
and just the default filename and extension below are to be used, specify " ".
Defines one or more email addresses for server administrators;
list is space delimited.
Determines the time interval in which external mechanisms must
respond to requests by the Fedora server. The value is specified in
milliseconds. The value specified should be set high enough to allow
for an average response time from any single external mechanisms. Note
this value must be less than the limit specified for the
datastreamExpirationLimit.
Defines the port number on which the Fedora server runs;
default is 8080.
Defines the redirect port of the Fedora sever; default is 8443.
Should the Fedora http client follow redirects?
Controls filename extension mapping when no filename can be determined from
the sources listed in datastreamFilenameSource. Values are always: always generate an extension
based on the MIMETYPE (using the default if no appropriate mapping is specified);
never: never generate an extension.
determines if a content-disposition header specifying "inline" and
a filename is added to the response for the REST API getDatastreamDissemination
when no query parameter of download=true is specified. Browser support for
recognising a filename in case of "inline" content disposition is patchy,
so you may wish to disable the content disposition header in this case and only
have it provided when download=true is specified, in which case the content disposition
of "attachment" will be used; which is generally supported.
Defines the context name for the Fedora server within the
application server. If set to eg "myfedora" the URL for Fedora will result
in http[s]://fedoraServerHost[:fedoraServerPort]/myfedora.
Defines the port number used to shutdown the Fedora sever;
default is 8005.
Extension to use when none can be determined from mappings
Filename to use for datastream downloads when none can be determined from the
sources listed in datastreamFilenameSource.
Controls the size of the datastream mediation hash by removing
entries outside the specified threshold. The value is specified in
seconds. Note this value must be greater than the limit specified for
the datastreamMediationLimit.
Controls filename extension mapping when RELS-INT is used
as the source of the filename. Values are as above.
Number of seconds Fedora http client will wait for a connection before timing
out.
Defines a human readable name for the Fedora server; default is
Fedora Repository.
Builds and manages Fedora's authorization structure.
This parameter is for future use.
Description: Interface to the backend service security
configuration. This module initializes backend service security
information in the server by parsing the beSecurity configuration file.
This file is located in the distribution in
$FEDORA_HOME/dist/server/config/beSecurity.xml. The configuration file
is read once at server startup.
The character encoding used for the beSecurity
configuration file. The default is "utf-8". The value
specified must correspond to the character encoding used in the
beSecurity configuration file.
Controls whether beSecurity config file is validated
against the beSecurityDescription schema. The default is
"false". Valid values are "true" or
"false".
The interface to the storage subsystem. This provides
context-appropriate DOReaders and DOWriters for reflecting on and
writing to the objects stored in the repository. It also provides
methods for reflecting on the contents of the repository as a whole..
The control group to use for the system-generated DC datastream
if no DC datastream is present on ingest. Must be "X" or "M".
The associated password for accessing the REST endpoint
of the Fedora Generic Search service. This parameter is only
required if GSearchDOManager is used, and the service requires
authentication.
If the serialization format is text-based, this is the
character encoding that should be used. Default is UTF-8.
The username for accessing the REST endpoint of the
Fedora Generic Search service. This parameter is only required if
GSearchDOManager is used, and the service requires
authentication.
The named connection pool from which read/write database
connections are to be provided for the storage subsystem (see the
ConnectionPoolManager module). Default is the default provided by the
ConnectionPoolManager.
Hints are gathered and passed to the underline storage systems (only Akubra for now).
These are meta data or contextual information about object or datastream to be added or updated.
The default implementation is NullStorageHintsProvider; it provides no hints. You you can implement
your own FedoraStorageHintProvider and drop your implementation to the $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/fedora/WEB_INF/classes
directory (unpackaged), or the $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/fedora/WEB_INF/lib director (packaged).
The REST endpoint of the Fedora Generic Search service.
This parameter is only required if GSearchDOManager is
used.
The control group to use for system-generated RELS-EXT and
RELS-INT datastreams where these are not already present when
adding relationships via addRelationship. Must be "X" or "M".
This is the namespace id for pids of newly-created objects.
This should be unique for a repository. It can be from 1 to 17
characters, and may only contain A-Z, a-z, 0-9, '.', or '-' (dash).
The management subsystem. This implements the methods necessary
to fulfill API-M requests without regard to:
- how the service is exposed
- how bytestreams and java types might be marshalled/demarshalled over the wire
- how the storage subsystem is implemented.
Optional, default is 60000 (1 minute).
This specifies the amount of time between checks to remove
temporary files uploaded via the API-M upload interface. During
each check, old files whose age exceeds uploadStorageMinutes
will be removed.
Specifies which checksumming algorithm is to be used when
automatically computing checksums as specified by the above
parameter. Valid values are: MD5 SHA-1 SHA-256 SHA-384 SHA-512.
Optional, default is 5.
This specifies the minimum amount of time that each uploaded
file should be kept in temporary storage.
Controls whether a checksum is automatically computed for
every datastream as the datastream is added to the repository. This
will allow the integrity of datastream contents to be periodically
checked to insure the object is not corrupted.
Description: The access subsystem. This implements the methods
necessary to fulfill API-A requests without regard to:
- how the service is exposed
- how bytestreams and java types might be marshalled/demarshalled
over the wire.
A boolean switch indicating whether Datastream Mediation is
activated or not. Datastream Mediation is required if using basic
authentication for API-A. When basic authentication is enabled for
API-A, backend services used by custom disseminations may or may not be
capable of authenticating with the Fedora server. Datastream mediation
coupled with the backend service configuration information in the
beSecurity.xml file enables the Fedora server to determine which backend
services are required to authenticate and which ones are allowed to
connect without authentication. Datastream mediation provides additional
repository security by not exposing the physical location of Referenced
Content datastreams to external mechanisms(services). Instead of
exposing the actual physical location of Referenced Content datastreams,
Datastream Mediation functions as a proxy requiring all external
services to communicate through the Fedora server to resolve the
location of Referenced Content datastreams.
IMPORTANT: For Datastream Mediation to function, the Fedora server must
be internet accessible using the configured name for fedoraServerHost
and fedoraServerPort. For example, using the default fedoraServerHost
value of "localhost" will not work if you have remote backend services
since the hostname of "localhost" will not be resolvable as the Fedora
server by the remote backend services. This requirement can be difficult
to satisfy if the Fedora server is located behind a firewall and you do
not have ready access to the firewall's configuration to enable the
required access. If the Fedora server is behind a firewall and you have
no access to the firewall's configuration, you are limited to keeping
Datastream Mediation turned off. Note that this will also prevent you
from using basic authentication with API-A. The default value of
doMediateDatastreams is false.
The dynamic behavior module for the access subsystem. This
implements the methods necessary to fulfill API-A requests without
regard to:
- dynamically associating a default behavior definition and mechanism with objects
- (Future) dynamically associating other behavior definitions and mechanisms
with objects
- running disseminations of dynamic behaviors
The interface that defines the methods of the bootstrap
disseminator. These methods are "built-in" to the Fedora system, and
are dynamically associated with every behavior definition and
behavior mechanism object.
The class that implements the methods of the bootstrap
disseminator. These method implementations are "built-in" to the
Fedora system, and are dynamically associated with every behavior
definition and behavior mechanism object. This class can be thought
of as implementing an "internal service" whereas other disseminators
use external services (described by WSDL) to do their work.
The interface that defines the methods of the default
disseminator. These methods are "built-in" to the Fedora system, and
are dynamically associated with every object.
The class that implements the methods of the default
disseminator. These method implementations are "built-in" to the
Fedora system, and are dynamically associated with every object.
This class can be though of as implementing an "internal service"
whereas other disseminators use external services (described by
WSDL) to do their work.
Supports the API-A simpleSearch and advancedSearch methods.
(optional, default is true) Whether the content of the DC
datastream should be examined and the contents indexed, for each object.
You may wish to save time and space by disabling DC field indexing,
particularly if you have an external search service (such as Fedora
Generic Search) that already fulfills this need.
Note: If you change this value on a Fedora repository that has been
running for some time, you will need to perform a SQL rebuild using the
Fedora Rebuilder tool if you want to change objects that have already
been ingested.
(optional) To make unspecified, comment out or delete the
whole param line as opposed to using an empty string,
default=ConnectionPoolManager's default) The connectionPool
providing the connection to the database to be used. Warning: When
setting these values, keep in mind that while a session is not timed
out (maxSecondsPerSession seconds haven't elapsed, and not all
results have been requested), a connection from the pool is tied up.
Therefore, the connectionPool should be at least of size n, large
enough to accomodate n simultaneous search sessions. The longer
maxSecondsPerSession is, the more chance you have of tying up all
available connections from the pool. Therefore, keep
maxSecondsPerSession fairly low, but still reasonable for an
automated program or user to serially get a long list of results,
and make sure you have a connectionPool large enough to accomodate
your users.
(required, must be > 0)
The maximum number of seconds that the server guarantees subsequent
search results may be obtained. This is only used in cases where the
number of results is greater than maxResults (as specified by the
server [above] or the client [in the search request]).
(required, must be > 0)
The maximum number of records to
return as the result of a search. Even if a client requests more
results at a time, this is the cutoff value.
Supports the ResourceIndex.
(required)
Index level. Currently, only 0, and 1 are supported levels.
0 = off and 1 = on.
WARNING: changing the level (except to 0) requires
running the Resource Index Rebuilder.
(optional, default is false)
Whether to flush the triple buffer before
returning from object modification operations.
Specifying this as true will ensure that RI queries
immediately reflect the latest triples.
Specifying false will not provide this guarantee,
but can significantly reduce roundtrip time for
API-M operations (depending on the triplestore
implementation).
(required)
Name of the triplestore to use. WARNING: changing the
triplestore running the Resource Index Rebuilder.
(optional) Aliases that can be used for queries. The param
name of an alias starts with the string "alias:" and is followed by
the name of the alias (shortcut) for the value, which is a URI
prefix. For example: name="alias:test"
value="http://example.org/terms#" will allow a query to use
test:apple instead of http://example.org/terms#apple
Description: Exposes the repository for OAI harvesters.

local Mulgara Triplestore used by the Resource Index
The initial size of the session pool used for queries.
Note: A value of 0 will cause the Resource Index to operate in
synchronized mode: concurrent read/write requests are put in a queue
and handled in FIFO order; this will severely impair performance and
is only intended for debugging.
The maximum size the buffer can reach before being forcibly
flushed. If this threshold is reached, flushing will occur in the
foreground and the buffer will be locked for writing until it is
finished. This should be larger than autoFlushBufferSize.
Create the model if it doesn't already exist.
At startup, the model will be automatically created. In addition, an
XML schema datatyped model named "xsd" will also be automatically
created.
The number of updates to send to the triplestore at a time.
This should be the same size as, or smaller than
autoFlushBufferSize.
Whether to propagate adds/deletes to a full-text
[Full-Text] model automatically. While a very useful feature,
enabling full-text indexing adds significantly to object ingest
times. If true, the text model will be named modelName-fullText.
Note that if this is true and autoCreate is true, the text model
will also be created if it doesn't already exist.

repositories will set this to false.
The local path to the main triplestore directory.
The name of the Trippi Connector class used to communicate
with the triplestore.
Example local MPTStore backed by Postgres.
To use this triplestore for the Resource Index:
1) In fedora.fcfg, change the "datastore" parameter of the
ResourceIndex module to localPostgresMPTTriplestore.
2) Login to your Postgres server as an administrative user and
run the following commands:
CREATE ROLE "fedoraAdmin" LOGIN PASSWORD 'fedoraAdmin'
NOINHERIT CREATEDB
VALID UNTIL 'infinity';
CREATE DATABASE "riTriples"
WITH ENCODING='SQL_ASCII'
OWNER="fedoraAdmin";
3) Make sure you can login to your Postgres server as fedoraAdmin.
4) Download the appropriate Postgres JDBC 3 driver from
http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html
and make sure it's accessible to your servlet container.
If you're running Tomcat, putting it in common/lib/ will work.
