Create and use multiple work types, not just the previously pre-packaged "GenericWork" type
Use mediated deposit workflow -- and build your own custom workflows -- in addition to self-deposit and proxy deposit
Configure the banner image without needing to override views
Assign visibility and release information (automatically) to works deposited into administrative sets via "permission templates"
Add depositors to administrative sets
Add child works to other works

Due to more and earlier quality assurance testing, this release also includes many bug fixes, including the following notable changes to the Save Work form:

No longer submits when uploads are still in progress
Uses optimistic locking to prevent an earlier form from submitting if the object has changed since the form was loaded

REMINDER: Ordering changes

Sufia 7.3.0 includes Rails 5 support, and also includes support for RDF 2 which fixes a long-standing bug in ActiveFedora that returned RDF statements in a predictable, though not directly alterable, order. The new behavior, which is correct for graphs that have not been explicitly ordered, is such that if an item has (e.g.) more than one title, the first title may change whenever the item is loaded.

If your application depends upon the old behavior of predictable, but arbitrary and unchangeable, ordered RDF graphs, you can add gem 'rdf', '~> 1.99' to your Gemfile, and ordering will be "preserved" in its current form. (You may also need to pin rdf-reasoner as follows: gem 'rdf-reasoner', '0.3.0')

Install Notes

After installing Sufia 7.3.0 (per the README), create the default administrative set after Fedora and Solr are running:

rake sufia:default_admin_set:create

Note this task will fail if you have not loaded workflows.

Upgrade Notes

Gemfile

Sufia 7.3.0 no longer depends upon a fork of Flipflop. If your Gemfile includes Flipflop directly, you should remove that dependency and let Sufia handle it directly. This is especially true if your Gemfile is pointing at a GitHub link like so:

# We DON'T want this. Remove it.
gem 'flipflop', git: 'https://github.com/jcoyne/flipflop.git', branch: 'hydra'

You shouldn't need to pin to a particular version of CurationConcerns, so if you have an entry in your Gemfile for CC, you ought to be able to remove it. (Sufia should pick up the latest 1.7.x release of CurationConcerns automatically.)

Sufia 7.3.0 has been tested with Rails versions 4.2.7.1, 5.0.0.1, and 5.0.1, so if your application is pinned to an earlier version of Rails, you will want to upgrade Rails.

This release removes support for BlacklightAdvancedSearch, so unless you know your application doesn't need it, add the following line to your Gemfile:

gem 'blacklight_advanced_search', '~> 6.0'

Then, update your Gemfile to point Sufia at version 7.3.0, and run bundle update sufia

Database structure

Create the new tables:

rake curation_concerns:install:migrations
rake sufia:install:migrations
rake db:migrate

Collections

Reindex your repository in Solr to pick up a fix to collection icons. If you don't already have a better way to do this, drop into a Rails console and run:

ActiveFedora::Base.reindex_everything

(And wait.)

Workflows

Grab the workflows from Sufia and CC:

mkdir config/workflows/
wget -O config/workflows/default_workflow.json https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projecthydra/curation_concerns/v1.7.4/lib/generators/curation_concerns/templates/workflow.json.erb
wget -O config/workflows/one_step_mediated_deposit_workflow.json https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projecthydra/sufia/v7.3.0.rc1/lib/generators/sufia/templates/workflow.json.erb

Load the default worklows: rake curation_concerns:workflow:load (note that you'll want to run this at point of deployment as well, to make sure all your instances have the workflows loaded)
If you are upgrading from Sufia 7.3.0.rc1 or an earlier post-7.2.0 master build, you'll want to migrate existing workflows by running rake sufia:migrate:from_7_3_0rc1_release. (If you're not sure if you need to do this, you should be able to run it without any negative side effects.)
You may also want to run Sipity::Workflow.find_by_name('default').update(allows_access_grant: true) which will allow the user, using the selected workflow, to share their uploaded works.

Default Admin Set

After loading workflows you should create a default admin set. Assuming Fedora and Solr are running, create the default administrative set :

rake sufia:default_admin_set:create

Models

Re-run rails generate sufia:work MyWorkType for your primary work type in order to generate the required internationalization keys. (See #2845.) Respond 'n' to any overwrite prompts.
If you see multiple include Sufia::WorkBehavior lines in app/models/my_work_type.rb, remove the newly added one.
If you see multiple self.human_readable_type = 'Whatever' lines in app/models/my_work_type.rb, remove the less specific one.
If you see a new self.terms line in app/forms/curation_concerns/my_work_type_form.rb, remove it.

Routes, controllers, views

Refactor your config/routes.rb so that Sufia is mounted before CurationConcerns. (See #2805.)
If you are extending the BatchUploadsController, make note of the following change: https://github.com/projecthydra/sufia/pull/2852/files#diff-cc5e3f825a6f03c044c07b27ea7ec144
Note the following new partial: #2997 If you've overridden app/views/sufia/admin/admin_sets/_form.html.erb, you may want to update your override.
Run the admin dashboard generator: rails generate curation_concerns:admin_dashboard

Optional

All deposited works now belong to an AdminSet. If you do not create any AdminSets and specify the relationship at time of creation, they will be added to a default AdminSet. There is now a rake task available to add all existing works to the default AdminSet, if you want to send those works through workflow at a later date:

rake sufia:migrate:move_all_works_to_admin_set

There's a new config value to set the location carrierwave uses to store uploaded files before the upload form is submitted. You can set cache_path in your sufia initializer to customize this location.

v7.2.0

4d3d28a

Sufia 7.2.0

Sufia 7.2.0 is jam-packed with bug fixes and new features, including:

Support for administrative collections (or admin sets)
An administrative dashboard in a new, roomier UI layout with feature flippers (turn features on and off dynamically via the UI) and the ability to manage admin sets
Support for the CurationConcerns FileManager that allows reordering and re-titling FileSets and child works within a work
A new homepage layout that provides more screen real estate
Ability to configure the homepage banner image
A new rake task for importing controlled vocabulary entries from lexvo.org for the language metadata field
Replacement of the AddThis sharing widget with the sharingbuttons.io widget
Support for Rails 5 and RDF 2

Install Notes

Sufia 7.2.0 depends upon an unreleased version of Flipflop -- we're working with the maintainer of that gem to get some pull requests that are required to make it work with a Rails engine like Sufia. Add the following to your Gemfile before running Sufia's install generator:

gem 'flipflop', git: 'https://github.com/jcoyne/flipflop.git', branch: 'hydra'

Also, pin CurationConcerns in your app to the latest 1.6.x release to pick up Blacklight Advanced Search.

IMPORTANT: Ordering changes

Sufia 7.2.0 includes Rails 5 support, and also includes support for RDF 2 which fixes a long-standing bug in ActiveFedora that returned RDF statements in a predictable, though not directly alterable, order. The new behavior, which is correct for graphs that have not been explicitly ordered, is such that if an item has (e.g.) more than one title, the first title may change whenever the item is loaded.

Upgrade Notes

Gemfile

gem 'flipflop', git: 'https://github.com/jcoyne/flipflop.git', branch: 'hydra'

Also, pin CurationConcerns in your app to the latest 1.6.x release to pick up Blacklight Advanced Search.

Then, update your Gemfile to point Sufia at version 7.2.0, and run bundle update sufia

Authority change

Because of expanded support for rights statements in CurationConcerns, you should rename the config/authorities/rights.yml file if it exists in your application.

mv config/authorities/rights.yml config/authorities/licenses.yml

Generator

Run the following generator to pick up new UI assets:

$ rails generate jquery:datatables:install bootstrap3

New database migration

Sufia 7.2.0 contains some small changes to the database. Run the following migrations. Note that how you invoke this command depends on which version of Rails you're using.

For Rails 5.0:

$ rails sufia:install:migrations
$ rails db:migrate

For Rails 4.2:

$ rake sufia:install:migrations
$ rake db:migrate

Changed default layout

To further align Sufia with CurationConcerns, the sufia-one-column layout has been moved from app/views/layouts/sufia-one-column.html.erb to app/views/layouts/curation_concerns/1_column.html.erb.

Check your config/application.rb file for layout 'sufia-one-column' and replace it with with_themed_layout '1_column'.

In addition, if you have overridden the sufia-one-column layout in your application, you should move your override to the new location.

Renamed path helpers

Rename references in your code, such as overridden views:

static_path('help') to help_path
static_path('zotero') to zotero_path
static_path('mendeley') to mendeley_path
static_path('agreement') to agreement_path
static_path('terms') to terms_path

Remove unneeded table (OPTIONAL)

Due to a dependency that is no longer maintained, Sufia 7.2.0 removes the (not widely used) feature that allows users to follow one another. If you want to keep this data in your application, skip this step. If you don't want to keep this data, you can do the following.

Add a new migration to your application:

$ rails generate migration DropFollows

This will create a new file in your application's db/migrate/ directory. Open it up and paste in the following (note: this is a non-reversible migration):

class DropFollows < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    drop_table :follows
  end
end
