Configuration
These are the options that can be specified in your .ini config file.
DateCite Credentials [REQUIRED]¶
DataCite Repository account credentials are used to register DOIs. A Repository account is administered by a DataCite Member.
| Name | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
ckanext.doi.account_name |
Your DataCite Repository account name | ABC.DEFG |
ckanext.doi.account_password |
Your DataCite Repository account password | |
ckanext.doi.prefix |
The prefix taken from your DataCite Repository account (from your test account if running in test mode) | 10.1234 |
Institution Name [REQUIRED]¶
You also need to provide the name of the institution publishing the DOIs (e.g. Natural History Museum).
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
ckanext.doi.publisher |
The name of the institution publishing the DOI |
Test/Debug Mode [REQUIRED]¶
If test mode is set to true, the DOIs will use the DataCite test site. The test site uses a separate account, so you must also change your credentials and prefix.
| Name | Description | Options |
|---|---|---|
ckanext.doi.test_mode |
Enable dev/test mode | True/False |
Note that the DOIs will still display on your web interface as https://doi.org/YOUR-DOI, but they will not resolve. Log in to your test account to view all your minted test DOIs, or replace https://doi.org/ with https://doi.test.datacite.org/dois/ in a single URL to view a specific DOI.
Other options¶
| Name | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
ckanext.doi.site_url |
Used to build the link back to the dataset | ckan.site_url |
ckanext.doi.site_title |
Site title to use in the citation | None |
