^ Documents with departments and security settings

.pre
select
archive.eprintid,department,security
from archive,document
where document.eprintid = archive.eprintid and department like '%informacijske%';
.pre

^ Update access to `staffonly`

.pre
begin;
update document set security='staffonly' where eprintid in ( select eprintid from archive where department like '%informacijske%' );
commit;
.pre

^ Repository

^^ backup

.pre
# prefix all commands with: sudo -u eprints /usr/share/eprints3/bin/
export ffzg archive XMLFiles > /tmp/ffzg.xmlfile
export ffzg subject XML > /tmp/submject.xml
export ffzg user XML > /tmp/user.xml
.pre

^^ restore

http://wiki.eprints.org/w/API:bin/import

.pre
epadmin erase_data ffzg

import_subjects --verbose --force --xml ffzg /tmp/submject.xml
import --verbose --migration ffzg user XML /tmp/user.xml
import --verbose --migration ffzg eprint XML /tmp/ffzg.xmlfile

generate_static ffzg
generate_views ffzg
.pre

^^ importing from other data source

When generating xml file for import documented at http://wiki.eprints.org/w/XML_Export_Format from some other dataset using `--update` is useful to re-run import

.pre
sudo -u eprints /usr/share/eprints3/bin/import --verbose --migration --enable-file-imports --update grf eprint XML xml
.pre

File can be specified in <url> tag using file:///path/on/the/disk/file.pdf but you need --unable-file-imports for this to work!

^ HASH in export filters with multilang fields

* bug report: http://www.eprints.org/tech.php/16066.html
* eprints meta patch: {file: eprints-plugin-export-simple-multilang.diff}

Even better solution which should work across updates is described at: http://www.eprints.org/tech.php/16125.html and our local changes are in {file: eprints-SimpleMultilang.zip}

^ REST API

http://www.eprints.org/tech.php/17435.html

There is an experimental REST interface that lives at /rest/. You will
need to give your user the 'rest' role (e.g. in cfg.d/user_roles.pl):

$c->{user_roles}->{admin} = [qw{ &nbsp;&nbsp;rest &nbsp;&nbsp;general &nbsp;&nbsp;... }];

(reload Apache to apply the change)

This is driven by EPrints/Apache/REST.pm. One mention of it here:
http://wiki.eprints.org/w/New_Features_in_EPrints_3.2#REST

Otherwise, I'm working on support CRUD/REST for EPrints URIs:

http://wiki.eprints.org/w/API:EPrints/Apache/CRUD

CRUD is missing the ability to update records - what is normally "POST" to an existing URI.
