New features for DSpace 5 and 6 ORCID integration

[Muhammad Yousaf]

Hi Everyone,

I am pretty new to this whole Dspace installation and build. Recently we upgraded from Dspace 6.2 to Dspace 6.3 with xmlui enabled (Mirage 2 theme). It is working just fine as we haven't faced any issue till now. On Oct 22nd, 2019 Atmire released a patch for orcid integration onto Dspace 5.9+ and 6.3+ versions (https://www.atmire.com/articles/detail/new-features-for-dspace-5-and-6-orcid-integration).

I went over there github page (https://atmire.github.io/expanded-ORCID-support/#/), followed all the steps, fulfilled all the prerequisites (maven version, git installed etc.), deployed the patch, did a clean maven build but when doing ant update it gives me an error at the beginning saying that "orcid.connector.url is circularly defined"! and then fails. I went over their github code and it seems like an entry in dspace.cfg is causing this issue as shown below:

https://github.com/atmire/expanded-ORCID-support/compare/dspace_6x%E2%80%A6stable_6x.diff

https://github.com/atmire/expanded-ORCID-support/compare/dspace_6x...stable_6x

For now I have commented it out as not to cause any failure during ant deployment and it deploys without any error but as expected, orcid is not working :( .

 

Has anyone faced a similar issue while doing orcid integration or is there a bug in their code? I am stuck with it and any help will be highly appreciated.

Thank You.

Regards.

Yes, I encountered exactly the same problem.  Sorry I don't have a solution, just wanted to confirm your finding.  Possibly something needs to be added to build.xml, but I have no idea what.   -Glenn.

Dear all,

 

For those experiencing this issue, please check the comments about how to add the orcid.connector.url property at https://github.com/atmire/expanded-ORCID-support/issues/1 . We will work to fix this in the patch code itself soon.

 

Best,

Daryl
