Post-Zephir Metadata Processing

A mostly haphazard collection of scripts (Bash, Perl) that take Zephir records, do some clean up and calculate Bib Rights, among other processes.

Parts of these should likely be extracted into their own repositories, or obviated by a re-architecture.

Setup

Clone repo using your protocol of choice.

docker compose build

There is no need for a bundle install step as this is taken care of in the Dockerfile.

Run Tests

Perl

docker compose run --rm test

Ruby

docker compose run --rm test bundle exec standardrb
docker compose run --rm test bundle exec rspec

Standard Locations

Post-Zephir can read and write files in a number of locations, and it can become bewildering. Many of the locations (all of them directories) show up again and again. Under Argo these all come from the ENV provided to the workflow. Under Docker the locations are not so scattered, and all orient themselves to ENV[ROOTDIR]. The shell scripts rely on config/defaults to fill in many of these variables; the Ruby scripts expect that the environment variables set by config/defaults are present.

TODO: can we use dotenv and .env in both the shell scripts and the Ruby code, and get rid of config/defaults? Or can we translate config/defaults into Ruby and invoke it from the driver?

ENV	Standard Location	Docker/Default Location
CATALOG_ARCHIVE	/htapps/archive/catalog	DATA_ROOT/catalog_archive
CATALOG_PREP	/htsolr/catalog/prep	DATA_ROOT/catalog_prep
DATA_ROOT	/htprep/zephir	ROOTDIR/data
FEDDOCS_HOME	/htprep/govdocs	DATA_ROOT/govdocs
INGEST_BIBRECORDS	/htapps/babel/feed/var/bibrecords	DATA_ROOT/ingest_bibrecords
RIGHTS_DIR	/htapps/babel/feed/var/rights	DATA_ROOT/rights
ROOTDIR	(not used)	/usr/src/app

Additional derivative paths are set by config/defaults, typically from the daily or monthly shell script.

ENV	Standard/Default/Docker Location	Note
REPORTS	DATA_ROOT/reports	unused
RIGHTS_DBM	DATA_ROOT/rights_dbm	this is a file
TMPDIR	DATA_ROOT/work
ZEPHIR_DATA	DATA_ROOT/zephir

run_process_zephir_incremental.sh (daily)

• Process daily file of new/updated/deleted metadata provided by Zephir
• Send deleted bib record IDs (provided by Zephir) to catalog indexer
• "Clean up" zephir records (what does this mean?)
• (re)determine bibliographic rights
  • Write new/updated bib rights to file for populate_rights_data.pl to pick up and update the rights db
• File of processed new/updated records is copied to a location for the catalog indexer to find it
• Retrieves full bib metadata file from zephir and runs run_zephir_full_monthly.sh. (It does?? I don't think so.)

Why?

The new/updated/deleted metadata provided by Zephir needs to make it to the catalog, and eventually into the rights database.

Data In

• ht_bib_export_incr_YYYY-MM-DD.json.gz (incremental updates from Zephir, ftps_zephir_get)
• vufind_removed_cids_YYYY-MM-DD.txt.gz (CIDs that have gone away, ftps_zephir_get)
• DATA_ROOT/rights_dbm (local copy of Rights DB ht_rights.rights_current)
• ROOTDIR/data/us_cities.db (dependency for bib_rights.pm)
• ENV[us_fed_pub_exception_file] (optional dependency for bib_rights.pm)

Data Out

Many files are named based on the BASENAME variable which is "zephir_upd_YYYYMMDD." Files are typically created in TMPDIR and moved/renamed from there.

AFAICT, Verifier should only be interested in files outside TMPDIR, with the possible exception of TMPDIR/vufind_incremental_YYYY-MM-DD_dollar_dup.txt.gz.

File	Notes
CATALOG_ARCHIVE/zephir_upd_YYYYMMDD.json.gz	From postZephir.pm: gzipped and copied (not moved) by shell script
CATALOG_PREP/zephir_upd_YYYYMMDD.json.gz	Same file as above, removed from TMPDIR after being copied to the two destinations
CATALOG_PREP/zephir_upd_YYYYMMDD_delete.txt.gz	Created as TMPDIR/BASENAME_all_delete.txt.gz combining two files (see below)
RIGHTS_DIR/zephir_upd_YYYYMMDD.rights	From postZephir.pm: moved from TMPDIR
ROOTDIR/data/zephir/debug_current.txt	Commented out at end of monthly script. Should be removed.
TMPDIR/vufind_incremental_YYYY-MM-DD_dollar_dup.txt.gz	Created as TMPDIR/BASENAME_dollar_dup.txt, renamed and sent to Zephir
TMPDIR/zephir_upd_YYYYMMDD_delete.txt	From postZephir.pm: usually empty list of 974-less CIDs, merged with vufind_removed_cids
TMPDIR/zephir_upd_YYYYMMDD.rights.debug	From postZephir.pm, if no one is using this it should be removed
TMPDIR/zephir_upd_YYYYMMDD_rpt.txt	Log data from postZephir.pm
TMPDIR/zephir_upd_YYYYMMDD_stderr	STDERR from postZephir.pm, if no one is using this it should be removed
TMPDIR/zephir_upd_YYYYMMDD_zephir_delete.txt	Intermediate file from vufind_removed_cids_... before merge with our deletes, remove?

Perl script dependencies

• bld_rights_db.pl (builds /tmp/rights_dbm)
• bib_rights.pm
• postZephir.pm

Bash script dependencies

• ftps_zephir_get
• ftps_zephir_send
• run_process_zephir_full.sh

run_zephir_full_monthly.sh (monthly)

• Pulls a full bib metadata file from zephir
• Moves groove_full.tsv.gz to /htapps/babel/feed/var/bibrecords
• Assembles zephir_ingested_items.txt.gz and moves to /htapps/babel/feed/var/bibrecords
• Processes the full zephir file:
  • Splits input file and runs multiple invocations of postZephir.pm in parallel
  • Generate new/updated bib rights

Why?

Previously generated the HTRC datasets. All that remains is the zephir_ingested_items and bib rights.

Data In

• ht_bib_export_full_YYYY-MM-DD.json.gz (monthly updates from Zephir, ftps_zephir_get) Note: this file is deleted by the unpigz command that splits it into smaller files to process in parallel.
• Note: there is no monthly "removed CIDs" or "deletes" files, these are only in the daily updates.
• US Fed Doc exception list /htdata/govdocs/feddocs_oclc_filter/oclcs_removed_from_registry.txt
• DATA_ROOT/rights_dbm (local copy of Rights DB ht_rights.rights_current)
• groove_export_YYYY-MM-DD.tsv.gz (ftps from cdlib)

Running Tests

Tests with limited coverage can be run with Docker.

docker compose build
docker compose up -d
docker compose run --rm pz perl t/test_postZephir.t

For test coverage, replace the previous docker compose run with

docker compose run --rm pz bash -c "perl -MDevel::Cover=-silent,1 t/*.t && cover -nosummary /usr/src/app/cover_db"
