This version, released on the 7th November 2024, provides alignment with DSpace 7.6.2 tag.

Key Enhancements

  • Alignment with DSpace 7.6.2 tag. See DSpace 7.6.2 release notes for further information.
  • The administrator bar is enriched for Community and Collection admin with the following options:
    • New
      • for creating subcommunities, collections and item
    • Edit
      • for editing communities, subcommunities, collections and items
    • Import
    • Export
    • Admin Search
    • Processes
  • The homepage top-section layout has been refactored to allow different configurable layouts. This includes options for an image-based layout, a slider with cards, or the existing default layout.
  • The handling of translated metadata labels in the CRIS layout has been improved.
    • For plain metadata the first available label among the following ones is shown:
      • the i18n-label layout.field.label.<ENTITY_TYPE>.[] (new format, with square brackets)
      • the i18n-label layout.field.label.<ENTITY_TYPE>. (old format, without square brackets) as first fallback
      • the i18n-label layout.field.label.[] (new format, with square brackets) as second fallback
      • the i18n-label layout.field.label. as third fallback (where is the value in the LABEL column)
      • the label (this.field.label) value, not translated, as fourth fallback
    • For nested metadata the following label is used, if available, otherwise the label for the plain metadata is used as fallback:
      • the i18n-label layout.field.label.<ENTITY_TYPE>.NESTED[]
    • For bitstreams the following label is used:
      • the i18n-label layout.field.label.<ENTITY_TYPE>.BITSTREAM[] (where is the value in the VALUE column)
      • the i18n-label layout.field.label.<ENTITY_TYPE>.BITSTREAM
        The cris-layout-configuration.xls file has been updated accordingly.
  • Added possibility to route network requests to different DSpace REST API URL during SSR
  • Performance Improvements:
    • Prevents rendering of context-menu during SSR
    • Optimized menu resolver in order to not make metadata script requests if no necessary
    • Optimized search results by including follow links
    • Optimized search results by avoiding rendering On Server Side by default
    • Use preventMetadataSecurity projection as default for browse and search component. Before this update the projection was used only for the mydspace page
    • Improved search/mydspace page to better fetch data and follow authority for objects which are not item. Due to the bug the requests to fetch all the items related to metadata authority in a search result list are done only for item objects. Now it work also for all the objects shown by the mydspace (workspace, workflow, workflow tasks)

Minor changes

  • The thumbnail component has been standardized to verify that the thumbnail format is valid (i.e., not unknown) and that the thumbnail does not exceed the predefined size. From now the configuration option cris.layout.thumbnail.maxsize and its logic is valid for every thumbnail.
  • Improved the text in tool-tips for Workflow process buttons
  • Improved the behavior of buttons in Supervision popup: the value can be introduced by Selecting/Deselecting the person to which assign the Supervision Order
  • When creating a new policy for an item, the field The eperson or group that will be granted the permission is now non-editable and the value can be introduced by Selecting/Deselecting the person or group to which grant the permission

  • During the handling of an item, the entity Type metadata is copied from the owning collection if it is null
  • The forgot password link on the log in screens is now removable. New property user.forgot-password added on REST settings

  • Add option to skip type binding for modal’s forms. Skip type bind in bitstream metadata editing in submission.
  • Disable grobid in CI as we cannot update to the latest version - v0.8.0
  • To resolve cache issues in visualizing edits, the behavior of the item resolver was changed by avoiding taking an existing cached response and fetching a new request for the item object during the CSR
  • When an administrator user visits the page of a withdrawn item, the button “Take me to the home page" won’t be displayed
  • Anonymous and bot Cache for SSR are now disabled by default
  • Added a link in the user menu that leads to the processes page launched by the user itself

  • Improves the open/close behavior of the related-items popover. A StickyPopoverDirective is created to manage a sticky popover using NgbPopover. It keeps the popover open when the mouse is over its content and closes it when the mouse leaves
  • Implemented functionality to display errors present inside the bitstream form in the upload section. If some metadata related to the uploaded files are missing or don’t pass the validation a generic error message will be displayed under the related file. In case of errors inside the bitstream form it will be impossible to proceed in saving the form so that all the mandatory fields will be in need to be provided
