Clone Required Repositories

Required repositories and file storage

You'll need to clone the uwlib-cams/map_storage repository to author Sinopia RDF resource templates:

Cloning a repository means creating a local copy of the repository files on your computer. You'll work in this local copy and then sync between the two locations.

See cloning a repository using Github Desktop.

GitHub details

You'll need to sync your work with the secure remote repository in order to author RTs using this workflow.

Contact Benjamin Riesenberg to be added as a contributor to the map_storage repository, and/or for assistance contributing to the remote repository.

Workspaces

• When creating a resource template (RT) ID, you'll enter the required information in your local sinopia_maps.xml instance. See resource template IDs for more details.
• When authoring RTs, you'll work on files in your local copy of the map_storage repository.
  • To create most RDA/RDF templates, you'll most likely work in one prop_set instance.
  • For example, to create a resource template for describing RDA Manifestations, you'll likely do all your work in your local copy of prop_set_rdam_p30k.xml instance which includes the set of RDA Registry properties which have rdfs:domain <http://rdaregistry.info/Elements/c/C10007> (properties with domain RDA Manifestation). See selecting a prop_set instance or instances for more information.
  • Properties from multiple prop_set instances may also be combined in a single resource template. See configuring property templates for more information.

Opening repositories in Oxygen XML Editor

Oxygen XML Editor is highly recommended to author resource templates using this workflow. (see Oxygen XML Editor for instructions on setting up).

To use Oxygen XML Editor, open the project file map_storage.xpr in the application. This will allow you to take advantage of keyboard shortcuts and preset transformation scenarios.
