Cookbook: Generating metadata only, not content files

Mark Jordan edited this page Jan 13, 2016 · 12 revisions

When testing your metadata mappings, or testing a metadata manipulator, you may only want to have MIK generate MODS.xml or DC.xml files for your objects. To do this, within the [WRITER] section of your configuration file, add a datastreams[] setting with the datastream ID of the metadata you want to generate, e.g.

[WRITER]
datastreams[] = "MODS"

That's all you need to do. When you run MIK, only the .xml files for your objects will be created, and they will contain the objects' MODS metadata.
