Import CV from Text File #164

Closed boveus closed 5 years ago

boveus commented 6 years ago

Hey folks, We are using the QA gem in our Hyrax app and making use of the feature that allows us to store our controlled vocabularies in a PostgreSQL DB. We wrote a little utility that parses a text file and saves a new CV and set of terms to the QA authorities tables: https://github.com/gsu-library/controlled_vocabulary_importer.

Would this be something that would fit into the vision of the QA gem? If so, I would be happy to dedicate some time to working on getting some of this functionality into QA.

Thanks.

@boveus Thanks so much for sharing this. I am just about done with a revamp of the documentation for QA. Much of the README is moving to the Wiki. I added a link to your importer script in the page talking about Creating a custom controlled vocabulary via a database in the Prerequisites section.
