The fields are those defined by the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI), defined at https://www.dublincore.org/specifications/dublin-core/dcmi-terms/. The template produced by this function is in json format which can be manually edited to provide metadata for a deposit.

Usage

deposits_metadata_template(filename = NULL)

Arguments

filename

Name or full path to local file where template is to be written. This file will be created. If a file of that name already exists, it must first be deleted. The file extension '.json' will be automatically appended.

Value

(Invisibly) TRUE if local file successfully created; otherwise FALSE.

Examples

filename <- tempfile (fileext = ".json")
deposits_metadata_template (filename)
#> Edit the file [/tmp/Rtmpf5ck00/file52f38ee4de2.json] and remove everything except the metadata fields you require.
#> The filename may be then passed as the 'metadata' argument to a 'deposits' client.
# then edit that file to complete metadata
