====== Greenstone Scripts ======
This is a list of Greenstone scripts, with all available options and their descriptions and value information.

To run any of these scripts, you must first setup the Greenstone environment in your terminal. To do this,
''cd'' to the Greenstone folder and run the setup script:

<tabbox Greenstone3>
Linux/Mac
<code>
source gs3-setup.bash
</code>
\\
Windows
<code>
gs3-setup.bat
</code>

<tabbox Greenstone2>
Linux/Mac
<code>
source setup.bash
</code>
\\
Windows
<code>
setup.bat
</code>
</tabbox>
\\

To get information on any of these scripts simply run:

<code>
perl -S <script filename> -h
</code>

|incremental|Use a simple document count. Significantly faster than "hash", but does not necessarily assign the same identifier to the same document content if the collection is reimported.|
|dirname|Use the parent directory name (preceded by 'J'). There should only be one document per directory, and directory names should be unique. E.g. import/b13as/h15ef/page.html will get an identifier of Jh15ef.|
|full_filename|Use the full file name within the 'import' folder as the identifier for the document (with _ and - substitutions made for symbols such as directory separators and the fullstop in a filename extension)|

</code>
//Remember for Greenstone3 you should always include the option ''-site site-name''.//

If a minus option is shared between ''import.pl'' and ''buildcol.pl'' then it can appear as is, 
such as -verbosity 5.  This value will be passed to both programs. If a minus option 
is specific to one of the programs in particular, then prefix it with 
''import:'' or ''buildcol:'' respectively, as in ''-import:OIDtype hash_on_full_filename''.

|FedoraMETS|METS format using the Fedora profile.|
|MARCXML|MARC XML format (an XML version of MARC 21)|
|DSpace|DSpace Archive format.|

====OIDtype option values====

^Value^Description^
|hash|Hash the contents of the file. Document identifiers will be the same every time the collection is imported.|
|assigned|Use the metadata value given by the OIDmetadata option; if unspecified, for a particular document a hash is used instead. These identifiers should be unique. Numeric identifiers will be preceded by 'D'.|
|incremental|Use a simple document count. Significantly faster than "hash", but does not necessarily assign the same identifier to the same document content if the collection is reimported.|
|dirname|Use the immediate parent directory name. There should only be one document per directory, and directory names should be unique. E.g. import/b13as/h15ef/page.html will get an identifier of h15ef. Numeric identifiers will be preceded by 'D'.|
