Hi everyone,
We (openjournals) wanted to share two scripts we have been using to import archives into our OJS 3.4 installation. We’re quite happy with the results:
- One that generates Native XML for OJS 3.4 based on article information in a CSV file (useful for importing large archives).
- And a second one that generates such a CSV file based on a native XML export from an OJS 3.3 installation.
Together they can be used to move articles from a 3.3 installation to a 3.4 installation.
We’re aware that there are other similar scripts available, but figured our version might be useful for someone in the community somewhere. We’ve found the scripts to be easily adaptable, making it easy to include or exclude parts of the metadata depending on what is available.
