PEAR::OAI allows for modular plugin of specific backend interfaces. This way, the library can be used to implement OAI repositories connecting to varying data bases and data structures.
This is a list of available backends for the PEAR::OAI Server and Client:
Server Backends
- Default: The default backend offers enough flexibility to access data stored in a RDBMS, structured in the most common ways.
Client Backends
[TODO]
Demo
Ideally, every backend should bring some testing scripts with it, residing in a directory named tests/. Please have a look at the default server backend as a reference implementation.
Note: Switching from PEAR::OAI 0.3 to 0.4.0, included moving the tests/ directory from the OAI-x.x.x.tgz package to the OAI_ServerBackendDefault-x.x.x.tgz package. I considered this a logic move when separating the OAI envelope from the repository content (provided by the backend class since 0.4.0). Now that PEAR::OAI can work with many backend implementations, each of these backends brings its own test scripts.
Developer
Should you wonder, how to implement a new backend that serves your specific needs, please refer to the tutorial on PEAR::OAI backends.
Contribute
If you already implemented another backend for PEAR::OAI, feel free to add your backend to the lists. You might also want to add documentation about your backend to this Wiki or a pointer where to find some infos.
