Metadata Masking
----------------
Key: DS-819
URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-819
Project: DSpace
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: DSpace API
Reporter: Joseph Rhoads
Dear Dspace community,
I'm working on a project that needs to have different layers of access to
metadata fields. (ie. Only certain people/groups should have access to
certain metadata fields). I'm wondering if any in the dspace community have
any ideas or experiences with this sort of thing? I'm gonna throw out some
ideas to see if anyone is interested.
I know that there are currently a couple of options related to items access,
+ You can let anonymous users view some info in the search/browse results
+ Then approved users/groups can have full-item read access (minus fields that
are designated for administrators)
+ Administrators can see all fields (including those designated
metadata.hide..... in the dspace.cfg file.)
What I'm thinking about includes the following:
+ Adding the ability to create masks or streams of masks that can be applied at
the community or collection level, and to specific groups.
+ Each mask would simply be a set of (metadata key, boolean value) pairs
+ I think collection administrators should be able to edit the masks though the
web interface
+ And that the OAI indexing should be viewed as another group or person for
this purpose.
I have some questions:
+ Should the mask be on the display end(post SQL request) or the request
end(pre SQL request)?
+ Presumably these masks would be persistent, where should they be stored?

connectivity to a physical network are well understood - see how these
rules translate into the virtual world?
