docuteam box

docuteam box is a service layer and application that sits on top of a Fedora repository stack. As such, it offers high-level access functionality to repository objects. For example, it is able to generate "Dissemination Information Packages" (DIP) in different extents (single objects or entire depositions), to produce previews/thumbnails for specific binary objects or just query the metadata of objects.

The application is providing both a simple web UI and an API for automated requests.

• The UI offers a cockpit to the repository, i.e. statistics about the repository's content, and also a SPARQL query interface.

• The API supports the same business operations to access repository objects and information as its predecessor application docuteam rservices:

  • DIP creation
  • Generic DIP creation
  • Media Manipulation
  • Metadata Export
  • Preservation information

The technical API documentation is available from within the application itself under ./docs/v1.

• There are two methods of authentication for docuteam box: the UI uses a KeyCloak instance (which can be linked to another authentication service like AzureAD, and the API is using tokens which can be managed within the UI.
