PubMan Sword

This page briefly describes the SWORD Server implementation in the PubMan solution. General Information about SWORD can be found here.

Implementation

For start the SWORD functionality is directly implemented in PubMan by exploiting and extending the sword api provided by JISC. In future we could have a seperate SWORD service for all eSciDoc solutions. PubMan implements 3 classes for the SWORD service:

1. PubManSwordServer - Processing of requests
2. PubManServiceDocumentServlet - Accepting requests for the Service Document (dependent on user credentials)
3. PubManDepositServlet - Accepting requests for the deposits (dependent on user credentials)

Interface

The PubMan SWORD interface is deployed within the PubMan ear, therefore one can access the above described servlets by the PubMan baseURL + the servlet path.

(Example with PubMan base url http://pubman.mpdl.mpg.de, note that sword functionality is not yet deployed on live server)
