Data upload to rebind framework
Importing XML and other data files from file system
After creating the new project the project name (in this example 'Puffinus') should appear in the list of un-published projects in the left-hand side panel.
Clicking on the project name takes you to the list of files associated with the project. In this case there are no files yet associated with the project as it is a new empty project. The 'Upload File' can be used to upload any file type from the file system. Several files of various file types (e.g. XML, PDF and images) and folders can be added to a project. 'Upload from BioCASE' enables the user to connect to a specific ABCD file stored in the Biocase Provider software, if the URL is known. However this is currently restricted to files below a certain size (a maximum of 700 records / abcd:Units).
The screenshot below shows the 'Upload from BioCASE' option.
Depending on the file type different options are offered for the current file. All file types have the option to view/download the file in its native form. Text based file types have the option to edit the file online. XML files can be validated against their schema (if it is registered with the reBiND Software) and can be corrected or modified by running automated corrections on them. Below the details of the data file 'reBiND_Puffinus.xml' are shown and the list of available actions. 'View XML' and 'View Data' link to an XML view or a tabular view of the data respectively. In the next section we'll describe remaining actions in turn, going into detail of how to run the validation and correction actions.
