Overview

A package has been developed that allows you to operate the Omeka S REST API from Python.

https://github.com/wragge/omeka_s_tools

Furthermore, based on the above repository, I have created a repository with several additional features.

https://github.com/nakamura196/omeka_s_tools2

In this article, I will introduce this repository.

Usage

Please refer to the following page.

https://nakamura196.github.io/omeka_s_tools2/

This repository was developed using nbdev, which allows package development and documentation to proceed in parallel, and I found it to be a very convenient system.

Additionally Developed Features

IIIF Image URL Registration Feature

Omeka S has a feature for registering IIIF image URLs, but this registration feature was not implemented in this module. As shown below, a method for registering IIIF image URLs was added.

Item Set Addition Feature

The item set registration feature was not implemented in this module. As shown below, a method for registering item sets was added.

Summary

For features that will be additionally developed in the future, I hope to eventually integrate them into the original repository.

I would also like to introduce usage examples of the features developed this time in a separate article.

Specifically, by using a IIIF manifest file as input data and mechanically registering the image data contained within it to Omeka S using this module, and then further using Scripto, it becomes possible to create a transcription environment for those image data.
