I want to upload issues in Index Copernicus. However, there is no plugin for exporting XSD files in OJS 3.0.2. Is there any other way through which I can convert XML files into XSD and upload to Index Copernicus? Index Copernicus accepts only XSD files. I am using OJS 3.0.2
It was a pain in the a** really. But I had no alternatives. It took me a few days to upload three issues. I uploaded whole articles including references and .pdf files.
I would love to see a plugin which can automatically do most of the job. I dont know whether it is feasible.
We just registered to Index Copernicus and if there is no easier solution, it will be a lot of work to bring all retrospectie articles to index manually…
Can someone link to a schema or DTD for the import format? This conversion probably isn’t a priority for us to write at PKP, but I might be able to suggest some starting points.

That’s a fairly simple schema, although it contains classifications that OJS doesn’t share, so some manual designation would be necessary. It would be possible to either write a stylesheet to convert OJS’s export XML into the required schema, or to write an export plugin to generate the Copernicus XML directly; if someone had the time to put into it, I’d recommend the latter. It would not be a complex task.

@a-vodka, excellent, we’re always happy to see third-party plugin work! If you’re interested in getting a code review on this and having it added to the plugin, please let me know.
