Tooling and Other Applications

Below is a master list of tools currently in use by DLTN’s technical aggregation team for aggregation, remediation, and other processes.

  • Repox: Primary Aggregation utility.

  • Pyrepox: Pyrepox is a python client written around the Repox API that we use for deployment, reporting, and other Repox specific tasks.

  • DLTN Docs Generator: a utility that uses Pyrepox to generate this site.

  • ContentDM IIIF Manifest Catalog Generator: Simple utility that we use to generate catalog.xml files of objects that have IIIF manifests that we parse with dtln_xslt.

  • DLTN XSLT: Our master repository of metadata transforms, IIIF manifest catalogs, remediation templates, etc.

  • Variety.js: A MongoDB schema analyzer that we use as part of metadata QA.

  • DLTN Metadata QA: A terrible QA tool that was thrown together in a few days several years ago that we still use as part of QA work.

  • DLTN Check and Harvest: A simple script we use to grab “good” files only from problematic sets.
