# Serial Solution Pack [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/discoverygarden/islandora_solution_pack_serial.png?branch=7.x)](https://travis-ci.org/discoverygarden/islandora_solution_pack_serial)



## Introduction



Adds all required Fedora objects to allow users to model, ingest and view objects modelled as serials within the Islandora interface.



## Requirements



This module requires the following modules/libraries:



* [Islandora](https://github.com/islandora/islandora)

* [Tuque](https://github.com/islandora/tuque)

* [jsTree](https://github.com/vakata/jstree) version 3.0.0. (Does not work with later versions.)



## Installation



Install as usual, see [this](https://drupal.org/documentation/install/modules-themes/modules-7) for further information.



Download/clone the [jsTree](https://github.com/vakata/jstree) library to `sites/all/libraries/jstree`. Version 3.0.0 is required.



## Configuration



* The "Islandora Serial Object Tree View" block may be enabled to view the full structure of a Serial object. Required to expose and manage serial object hierarchies.

* The "View: Islandora Serial Object Intermediate PDF View" block may be enabled if the [Islandora Solr Views](https://github.com/Islandora/islandora_solr_views) module is installed.

* To make PDFs visible when viewing serial objects, configure the solution pack (admin/islandora/solution_pack_config/serial) and check "Display PDFs and sections in the jsTree view".



## Preparing and ingesting serial objects



* To create a top-level container object (e.g. a journal), ingest an object with the Serial Object content model.

* Under Serial Level Configuration, set up the structure of your serial. (e.g. Level 1 might use the MODS detail type "volume", and the label "Volume". Level 2 might be "issue" and "Issue".)

* After clicking Next, the "Create Intermediate Children" screen comes up. Here you can add levels (e.g. volumes and issues), which will act as containers for your PDFs. 

   * Click "Add Another" to create a Level 1 container. It is automatically assigned the Level 1 label. 

   * Click "Add Another", and a second Level 1 container will appear. You can drag it to the right to make it a Level 2 container. The label will change.

* To ingest a PDF under a given level, click on that level in the tree, and click Manage. Then click PDF Manageement, and add PDFs or sections.
