DSpace

Build Status

DSpace Documentation | DSpace Releases | DSpace Wiki | Support

Overview

DSpace open source software is a turnkey repository application used by more than 2,000 organizations and institutions worldwide to provide durable access to digital resources. For more information, visit http://www.dspace.org/

DSpace consists of both a Java-based backend and an Angular-based frontend.

Prior versions of DSpace (v6.x and below) used two different UIs (XMLUI and JSPUI). Those UIs are no longer supported in v7 (and above).

  • A maintenance branch for older versions is still available, see dspace-6_x for 6.x maintenance.

Downloads

Documentation / Installation

Documentation for each release may be viewed online or downloaded via our Documentation Wiki.

The latest DSpace Installation instructions are available at: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Installing+DSpace

Please be aware that, as a Java web application, DSpace requires a database (PostgreSQL) and a servlet container (usually Tomcat) in order to function. More information about these and all other prerequisites can be found in the Installation instructions above.

Running DSpace 7 in Docker

NOTE: At this time, we do not have production-ready Docker images for DSpace. That said, we do have quick-start Docker Compose scripts for development or testing purposes.

Getting Help

DSpace provides public mailing lists where you can post questions or raise topics for discussion. We welcome everyone to participate in these lists:

Great Q&A is also available under the DSpace tag on Stackoverflow

Additional support options are at https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSPACE/Support

DSpace also has an active service provider network. If you'd rather hire a service provider to install, upgrade, customize or host DSpace, then we recommend getting in touch with one of our Registered Service Providers.

Issue Tracker

DSpace uses GitHub to track issues:

Testing

Running Tests

By default, in DSpace, Unit Tests and Integration Tests are disabled. However, they are run automatically by GitHub Actions for all Pull Requests and code commits.

  • How to run both Unit Tests (via maven-surefire-plugin) and Integration Tests (via maven-failsafe-plugin):
    mvn install -DskipUnitTests=false -DskipIntegrationTests=false
    
  • How to run only Unit Tests:
    mvn test -DskipUnitTests=false
    
  • How to run a single Unit Test
    # Run all tests in a specific test class
    # NOTE: failIfNoTests=false is required to skip tests in other modules
    mvn test -DskipUnitTests=false -Dtest=[full.package.testClassName] -DfailIfNoTests=false
    
    # Run one test method in a specific test class
    mvn test -DskipUnitTests=false -Dtest=[full.package.testClassName]#[testMethodName] -DfailIfNoTests=false
    
  • How to run only Integration Tests
    mvn install -DskipIntegrationTests=false
    
  • How to run a single Integration Test
    # Run all integration tests in a specific test class
    # NOTE: failIfNoTests=false is required to skip tests in other modules
    mvn install -DskipIntegrationTests=false -Dit.test=[full.package.testClassName] -DfailIfNoTests=false
    
    # Run one test method in a specific test class
    mvn install -DskipIntegrationTests=false -Dit.test=[full.package.testClassName]#[testMethodName] -DfailIfNoTests=false
    
  • How to run only tests of a specific DSpace module
    # Before you can run only one module's tests, other modules may need installing into your ~/.m2
    cd [dspace-src]
    mvn clean install
    
    # Then, move into a module subdirectory, and run the test command
    cd [dspace-src]/dspace-server-webapp
    # Choose your test command from the lists above
