# Django Dublin Core Resource
A Django model and admin interface to manage metadata about your resources
using [standard Dublin Core (DC) schema](https://www.dublincore.org/specifications/dublin-core/dcmi-terms/).
The approach taken by this app is to centralise all your resource metadata
into a single table.
# Data Models
* AbstractDublinCoreResource
* an abstract Django Model that replicate the Dublin Core schema
* each [DC element](https://www.dublincore.org/specifications/dublin-core/dcmi-terms/#section-3) (dc:) is represented by a field
* some [DC terms](https://www.dublincore.org/specifications/dublin-core/dcmi-terms/#section-2) (dcterms:) are also included
* makes use of ControlledTermField for links to controlled vocabularies
* DublinCoreResource
* inherit from AbstractDublinCoreResource
* DublinCoreAgent
* represents a person or organisation
* DublinCoreRights
* represents Rights statements that can be shared among your resources
# Features

## Installation
First [install django-controlled-vocabulary](https://github.com/kingsdigitallab/django-controlled-vocabulary#setup).

```
pip install django-dublincore-resource
