Natural Resources Wales Metadata Profile

GeoNetwork versions to use with this plugin

Use the correct branch for your version of GeoNetwork. The default branch is for GeoNetwork 4.2 and this is the recommended version.

Installing the plugin in GeoNetwork 4.2.x (recommended version)

Adding to an existing installation

• Download or clone this repository, ensuring you choose the correct branch.
• Copy src/main/plugin/iso19139.nrw to INSTALL_DIR/geonetwork/WEB_INF/data/config/schema_plugins/iso19139.nrw in your installation.
• Copy target/schema-iso19139.nrw-3.12-SNAPSHOT.jar to INSTALL_DIR/geonetwork/WEB_INF/lib
• Restart GeoNetwork
• Check that the schema is registered by visiting Admin Console -> Metadata and Templates -> Standards in GeoNetwork. If you do not see iso19139.nrw then it is not correctly deployed. Check your GeoNetwork log files for errors.

Adding the plugin to the source code prior to compiling GeoNetwork

The best approach is to add the plugin as a submodule. Use https://github.com/geonetwork/core-geonetwork/blob/4.2.x/add-schema.sh for automatic deployment:

.\add-schema.sh iso19139.nrw http://github.com/astuntechnology/iso19139.nrw 4.2.x

Building the application

See https://geonetwork-opensource.org/manuals/trunk/en/maintainer-guide/installing/installing-from-source-code.html.

Ensure that you build GeoNetwork with the directive -DschemasCopy=True (and also use the same directive if running using the embedded jetty server plugin). For example from the GeoNetwork root directory:

sudo mvn clean install -DskipTests -DschemasCopy=true -Pes
cd web
sudo mvn jetty:run -DschemasCopy=true

Once the application is built web/target/geonetwork.war will contain GeoNetwork with the NRW schema plugin included.
