Virtual collection

[AnasGhrab]

Is it possible to add a virtual a collection from a Telemeta to another Telemeta ? This http://archives.crem-cnrs.fr/archives/collections/CNRSMH_I_1970_023/ finds its place among CMAM's collection (http://phonotheque.cmam.tn/archives/fonds/cmam_inedit_terrain/). It does't need to be at the CMAM.

If I well understand, you would like that the collection hosted in a repository would appear in another one without copying the data, right?

[AnasGhrab]

Hmm.. yes.. but now that you say it in your words, it seems to be a little too imaginative and realistic :)

[yomguy]

Not too much because sharing dictionnary views of collections or items between sessions could be easily implemented. But this is only possible if some original metadata coming from thesaurus and various other tables (which can't be fully and the destination) are skipped.

[AnasGhrab]

So.. it is certainly not a "priority", but if this possibility is not complicated to be done, It is certainly useful as one can constitute a Corpus not only from his data, but also including collections from other Telemetas.

Todo for Telemeta 2.0 ? ;)

We would then expect that adding a collection propose an URL of remote collection and feed the template with the JSON dict acquired by a REST query through the Telemeta API.

Milestone applied;)
