# Islandora LOCKSS-O-Matic

A module that allows an Islandora instance to deposit content into a Private LOCKSS Network managed by [LOCKSS-O-Matic](https://github.com/mjordan/lockss-o-matic).

Using a simple implementation of the [SWORD](http://swordapp.org/) protocol, this module notifies LOCKSS-O-Matic that new content is available to have harvested into a [Private LOCKSS Network](http://www.lockss.org/community/networks/). Currently only content that is packaged using the [BagIt](https://wiki.ucop.edu/display/Curation/BagIt) specification can be deposited.

## Creating deposits

Deposits can be either 'In progress' or 'closed'.

In-progress deposits are made over time and automatically. On each cron run, this module checks to see if any new Bags have been created and if so, issues a deposit request against LOCKSS-O-Matic for the new Bags. LOCKSS-O-Matic determines which LOCKSS Archival Units to add them to. Using in-progress deposits is suitable when you want every Bag that is generated by Islandora to be deposited automatically.

Closed deposits are created with a Drush command accompanying this module:

```drush create-islandora-lom-deposit "New Islandora objects 2014-06"```

or its short form

```drush lomdep "New Islandora objects 2014-06"```

Using closed deposits is suitable when you have just created a set of Bags (in a batch, for example), and you want those Bags to be deposited in a single LOCKSS Archival Unit.

## Status of this module

Still under development, mainly as a vehicle to help test LOCKSS-O-Matic. However, it will be developed to production status.

Some possible items @todo:

* Provide a way to filter which Bags get deposited

* Add functionality to let Islandora query LOCKSS-O-Matic and delete Bags after they have been harvested by a LOCKSS network
