New module: Islandora Badges
bran...@eln.bc.ca
Hi all,
Those of you who are Arca members know that I (well, Mark Jordan did most of the work) created my first module this week at iCamp, Islandora Badges. It extends/replaces the Islandora Altmetrics module by adding a Scopus Citation Count badge to show how many times the article has been cited (according to its record in Scopus). I have some future plans to further expand this module as well, whenever I get round to them (and figure out how to make them happen).
Here’s what it looks like in action: http://arcabc.ca/islandora/object/unbc%3A53#
If you want this module on your site, you can follow these steps:
Download/clone and install the module from here: https://github.com/bondjimbond/islandora_badges
In the Modules menu:
- If you're using Islandora Altmetrics, disable that module (otherwise you’ll have two Altmetric badges)
- Enable the Islandora Badges module
Configure the Islandora Badges module under Islandora Utility Modules (admin/islandora/tools/badges):
- For Altmetrics, use whichever settings you had in the original module (or just use the defaults)
- For Scopus API Key, you’ll want to get your own API key. They’re free - you can apply here: http://dev.elsevier.com/myapikey.html (note the website doesn’t work in Chrome)
In the Blocks menu (admin/structure/blocks):
- Find the Altmetrics and Scopus blocks, and put them in the Content region (at the top)
- Configure them, and give them a CSS class.
- If you followed the Arca Hours instructions for configuring Altmetrics, you can use the same class you did for the Altmetrics badge (i.e. altmetric) - this will let you re-use the CSS Injector work you did before.
- This requires the Block Class module and the CSS Injector module (Drupal, not Islandora), which are both very useful.
