Maintain <header> for Records during OAI harvest #328

Closed ghukill closed 5 years ago

ghukill commented 5 years ago

Currently, <header> is dropped from OAI records during OAI harvest. Has been observed it would be handy to have this information for transformations and/or validations.

Would need to consider where saved, most easily to the Record document itself, requiring the user to remove with a transformatoin.

Consider a toggle during OAI harvest that would preserve the harvested record's <header>.

Another thought: Jobs have job_details that is JSON with complex information about the Job, but Records do not have anything similar. What if they did? Might this be information that could be saved there? Of note, if so, it would not be available to operations that act on the Record's document only, like XSLT transformations. So, might be in addition to toggle mentioned above.

Done with toggle switch, merged to dev.
