OAI Toolkit Documentation Suggestion: MARC files need to end in .mrc #43

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I use the Voyager marcexport utility to export MARC records.  This utility
will add its own extensions to the outputted filename when an export is
very large (e.g., filename.mrc.0, filename.mrc.1, etc.).

If you put these files in the OAI Toolkit's "-source" directory, you will
get generic errors stating that there are no files in the source directory.  

It took me a while before I remembered the requirement that filenames must
end in .mrc.  A prominent "IMPORTANT NOTE:" explanation in the
documentation might be a good idea.

Cheers,
Chris

Either it could be added in the documentation or a coding change could be done 
to 
allow also the .marc extension or other exension if needed.

Coding change could be incorporated in the file Importer.java starting from 
lines 
242.

Documented on Wiki.

Chris, if you think a coding change should be done, please open an issue in 
Jira.
