Handles: Restore handle registration functionality in 4.x #2437

Closed kcondon closed 7 years ago

kcondon commented 9 years ago

Due to time constraints, we did not complete the code for fully supporting handles in v4.x. Currently handles are presented and resolved correctly but not created. This ticket is intended to restore that functionality.

Please note there were several other tickets that address handle registration robustness, similar to what was done for doi: how we address server not available situations and check for duplicate ids before creating them.

mercecrosas commented 9 years ago

Relates also to #889 and #886

bencomp commented 9 years ago

I would like this too.

CNRI announced that

In the new management structure under DONA, both the GHR-specific software and the Handle.Net software will be substantially updated.

Hopefully that would make this easier to implement.

@eaquigley @mcrosas @scolapasta Hi Guys: ticket came in this morning that handles are not going directly to a dataset, but rather a list of recently published data: example: http://hdl.handle.net/1902.1/21720 If you click on that as a link, you don't go directly to the dataset Does this have to do with this registration issue or should I create a new ticket?

bencomp commented 8 years ago

If you input the actual handle in the form at http://hdl.handle.net and check the box "don't redirect to URLs", you'll see that the URL for the handle is http://thedata.harvard.edu/dvn/study?globalId=hdl:1902.1/21720

I think the redirects performed by thedata.harvard.edu are incorrect. But the handle records should really be updated to point at the current URLs.

sbarbosadataverse commented 8 years ago

@bencomp thanks! @scolapasta does this need a new ticket in github?

pdurbin commented 8 years ago

@bencomp thanks! I didn't know how to troubleshoot handles like this. Very handy to see this:

kcondon commented 8 years ago

We had confirmed this was a redirect/rewrite issue earlier but have not yet had a chance to correct it.

@kcondon redirect/rewrite might be a temporary solution, but you should really update the Handle records to point at the correct URLs.

Thank Ben, I'm fully aware of the options and am pursuing those according to my own best judgement.

So an update for all the watchers: -We resolved the first issue from a week ago by updating the handle record to use the correct URL. -We had intended to update all handle records to use the correct URLs after we changed URLs but this seems to not have been done or not done completely so a review needs to be performed. #2809 -There is also a rewrite issue that makes the general problem visible as a result of moving the rewrite rules from Glassfish to Apache. These rules need to be retested and corrected. #2810 -We are currently trying to get a release out so have been fixing the immediate issue and working on addressing the larger issues as soon as we have time.

Dear all, is there any news about this issue ?

Kind regards, Ivo

pdurbin commented 8 years ago

This appears to be a duplicate of #889 which says "This is a parent ticket for the various handle/doi and handle/doi registration tickets." We probably only need one parent ticket/issue.

pdurbin commented 8 years ago

This morning @djbrooke and I discussed @jo-pol 's pull request at #3146 and decided to use this issue to represent this work https://waffle.io/IQSS/dataverse so I put this issue in the "Code Review" column. I would guess that @sekmiller is in the best position to review the pull request.

pdurbin commented 8 years ago

Just a heads up that @solhm ("teya") in IRC is interested in Handle support as well: http://irclog.iq.harvard.edu/dataverse/2016-10-26#i_43738

kcondon commented 8 years ago

OK, tested and found a few issues:

  1. Error message when failing to contact identity registration service (handle.net) has text relating to DataCite. Error – This dataset may not be published because the DataCite Service is currently inaccessible. Please try again. Does the issue continue to persist? Please contact Dataverse Support for assistance.

I believe the intention is to have a generic message with a variable for the registration service, in this case it would be Handle.Net rather than DataCite. @scolapasta would have more details.

  1. Does not update globalidcreatetime on dataset create. So, when publish it detects a duplicate and then registers a new/different id.
  2. Does not check globalidcreatetime at all when publish so always creates a new id. Kind of a super set issue of issue 2.
  3. Does not try to delete a unpublished draft-only handle. We do not allow deleting identifiers of published datasets but one that has not yet been published can be deleted and so too its identifier.

@scolapasta @landreev @sekmiller @djbrooke would have more information and guidance on these technical issues.

djbrooke commented 8 years ago

Thanks @kcondon!

I'll tag Jo in the PR to see how we should proceed.

jo-pol commented 8 years ago

@ekoi (cc @4tikhonov) could you look into these issues too?

djbrooke commented 8 years ago

Hi @ekoi @4tikhonov and @jo-pol - let me know if there's anything that we can do to help move this along. Thanks again for working on this valuable feature!

4tikhonov commented 8 years ago

Hi @kcondon and @djbrooke, how it was tested? Do you have some unit tests for this functionality or it was tested manually?

kcondon commented 8 years ago

@4tikhonov It was tested manually. I'll have a list shortly. Here are my tests: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_HdMUKTBV-p5GU-31uZ7BmQYxWs7-lsvAVsWr150mmU/edit?usp=sharing

Let us know if you have any questions, thanks.

djbrooke commented 7 years ago

Hey @4tikhonov - let me know if there's anything that we can do to help this move forward. If possible, we'd like to include it in the 4.6 release, which we're planning on completing before the end of the year. Thanks!

Thanks @kcondon for linking up the test cases here!

jo-pol commented 7 years ago

I wished I had the document with test scenarios and expected result back in June while I still had a chance to work on this issue. Now I'm limited to keep an eye on progress on either side of the ocean. Just some questions that cross my mind:

The document says "Handle creation workflow is more like EZID"

djbrooke commented 7 years ago

Hey @jo-pol - thank you for everything that you and other folks at DANS have done to move handles along. I think we're very close. I understand that there are a few lingering issues and we'll work with you guys to fix them in a way that works with the time that both of our groups have available. I'll work with @4tikhonov and @scolapasta to determine the specifics of moving forward with Handles, as I understand that the DANS team is focused on the move to Dataverse 4 (which is great!!).

djbrooke commented 7 years ago

Remaining items (this is a restatement of Kevin's comment above):

Note that these items apply to Handles only. There are slightly separate flows for EZID and Datacite persistent IDs.

djbrooke commented 7 years ago

@sekmiller, @landreev, or @scolapasta:

@solhm is working on this these days and had some follow up questions. I'm adding them here in italics below. Can someone please provide some clarification so that he can keep this moving? Thanks!


Other than those issues. at what point is the datasets pushed into the handle.net server or get public? I can see publicizeIdentifier function for doi on both providers EZID and DataCite but I can't find a related function for hdl protocol.

scolapasta commented 7 years ago

One key thing to understand for working on this functionality is that the general idea is to move logic specific to a registration provider outside of the commands (or other areas of core code) and move into provider specific implementations of the registration provider interface, PersistentIdRegistrationServiceBean. In this way someone should be able to add a brand new provider, as needed, and NOT touch any of the core dataverse code. Much of this was already done by the external partner who started this branch, but it may not be complete.

So if you see any place in the core code that references data cite, ezid, or handle, that needs to change. For example, when you say "This error came from PublishDatasetCommand but it first checks if the protocol is DOI" that immediately raised the flag to me that this was not completed here.

Note that some providers are not as robust as others, so some of the impementation methods will be empty.

I'll review the code tomorrow with our developers to answer your specific questions, but I hope that this general guideline can already help you make some progress.

scolapasta commented 7 years ago

Actually, I can answer the last one (5) without reviewing the code. You are correct that when deaccessioning we do NOT delete the persistent identifier. It is important that the persistent identifier still exist, in order to point to a tombstone page (explaining why the dataset was deaccessioned).

However, "destroy" is a special function that completely removes the dataset from dataverse. There is no longer a tombstone page. For example, we use this to remove test datasets, or datasets that should never have been created. In this case, we do want to delete the persistent identifier.

scolapasta commented 7 years ago

To answer 4, the only other place we can think of is in the directory structure for the files, but that is deleted when the draft is deleted.

solhm commented 7 years ago

@scolapasta very true, core code shouldn't be explicit, for question 5 "destroy" you right the PId should also be removed And on Answer 4- in that case, its working fine.

solhm commented 7 years ago

So if you see any place in the core code that references data cite, ezid, or handle, that needs to change. For example, when you say "This error came from PublishDatasetCommand but it first checks if the protocol is DOI" that immediately raised the flag to me that this was not completed here.

@scolapasta That's correct but even in the master and v4.6.1 branches if you check PublishDatasetCommand as an example. dataCite and ezid is all over the code. In fact, like you suggested me, I used DANS-KNAW/dataver. But since 4.6.1 in release what is the logical explanation.

scolapasta commented 7 years ago

I'm sure they are all over the code in both master and 4.6.1 (which should currently be the same). The idea of moving logic into provider specific implementations of the PersistentIdRegistrationServiceBean isn't yet in our production code and is what branch you are working on is all about. That is what we want to get into the core code ASAP.

The new test/dev. handlenet server should now be running on dvn-vm7.hmdc.harvard.edu. The software is installed in /usr/local/handlenet/hsj-8.1.1; the handle database is in /usr/local/handlenet/svr_1

The private key you will need in order to register and delete handles is in /usr/local/handlenet/svr_1/privkey.bin

The documentation that came with this version says that they know have a better web-based admin tool:

8) As of version 8.1 a browser-based administration tool is made available by the handle server. In a browser, you can open the URL https://:8000/admin to use the tool. The site uses a self-signed certificate by default, which will generate a warning and require an explicit permission to visit in most browsers. The page has a "Help" link explaining how to use it.

The older command-line admintool should still be working too; (you may or may not need to use either for your testing).
