Concordance Lists for Imports to museum-digital

This directory contains concordance lists for accepted values. Where e.g. an entry type may be identified at museum-digital only by its ID, it is not realistic to expect providers of import data (which is to say: museums) to enter the entry type ID from museum-digital's relevant list. Hence, the lists contained in this subdirectory provide human-readable names for the IDs accepted by museum-digital as found in previous imports, so that they can be automatically translated to the IDs and names as used within the context of museum-digital.

The lists are grouped as (private) class constants of their relevant entry type.

• All class names may be prefixed with MDConc.
• All concordance list classes implement the MDImporterConcordanceListInterface interface.
  • They can thus all be used using a static function getConcordanceTarget(string $input). E.g.:

    $checkType = MDConcCheckTypes::getConcordanceTarget("Vollständigkeit");
    

• All concordance lists can be found directly in the /src directory.

Environment and Purpose for Using a Separate Subrepository

This repository is intended to be used as a subrepository of MDImporter. Its full functionality is thus only available with the inclusion of some other subrepositories provided in the context of the importer (e.g. MDAllowedValueSets).

Editing can be done by simply adding to the lists however. It is hoped, that the publication of this subrepository as a standalone repository makes this process easier. Just clone this repository and enter the missing values in the relevant classes in the /src directory.

Testing

Tests exist to ensure that all concordance lists implement the MDImporterConcordanceListInterface interface and throw an MDImporterMissingConcordance exception, if a new, yet unknown value is encountered. If this repository is set up as part of an installation of the MDImporter, they can be run using:
