Overview

Regarding Bulk Import, one of the modules for bulk data registration in Omeka S, the latest version as of August 21, 2022 (ver.3.3.33.4) appears to contain a bug.

Specifically, the following issue describes a bug that occurs during bulk media registration.

This bug has already been addressed in the following commit.

https://github.com/Daniel-KM/Omeka-S-module-BulkImport/commit/7d568a97f08459e22e7c5fbaa8163b17ab4ba805

However, as of today, a release version has not yet been published, so installation from source code is necessary.

Installation from Source Code

Please also refer to the following article.

Here, I will explain the installation method again.

Downloading the Source Code

Navigate to the Omeka S modules directory and download the source code. Delete any previously downloaded BulkImport-related files and folders as needed.

Composer

Next, run composer install.

ccdomBpuolskeIrmpionrsttall-no-dev

If composer is not found as shown below:

composer:Commandnotfound.

A simple solution is to run the following.

cpuhrplc-osmSpohstetrp.sp:h/a/rgeitncsotmaplolser-.noor-gd/eivnstaller|php

With the above, the module installation is complete.

Operations in the Omeka S Admin Panel

Module Upgrade

Access the Modules list page in the admin panel from a browser.

http://xxx.xyz/omeka-s/admin/module

Find Bulk Import in the list, and if an “Upgrade” button is displayed, perform the upgrade.

Notes for Import

The basic operations remain unchanged, but you may need to modify the “Identifier to use for linked resources or update” on the Start import screen.

The following metadata.csv and image.csv are assumed to be used.

Below is the registration screen.

If only internal id is selected as shown above, add DC Identifier.

Summary

A release version should be published soon, but I hope this serves as a useful reference for those experiencing this bug.
