Purpose
The goal of this effort is to convert ActiveFedora::Base works to Valkyrie::Resource works to determine how well Hyrax code can function with Valkyrie works and identify areas that still need adjustment.
This is not a polished ‘how to’ guide. This is a description of the process we followed to explore moving to Hyrax 3.0 using exclusively Valkyrie::Resource works, and later collections, filesets, and files.
- This is an anecdotal exploration of the process. Code is improving regularly. Some of the stumbling blocks may have been resolved.
Process
- Generating a Work Resource
- Defining Attribute Metadata for the Work Resource
- Dealing with extra code in the 2.7 model
- Understanding Indexing with Valkyrie
- Creating a Valkyrie Indexer for the Work Resource
- Writing Custom Queries
- New and Edit Forms for the Work Resource
