Overview
The archive display can be used to interact with the FEWS-archive.
The main functions which are supported by this display are:
- management of events in the archive,
- search for events and download data related to events from the archive,
- search for data in the archive
Configuration
To use the archive display, configure it as <explorerTask> in Explorer.xml. For example:
<explorerTask name="Archive Catalogue"> <iconFile>Archive.png</iconFile> <mnemonic>A</mnemonic> <displayConfigFileName>ArchiveModuleDisplay</displayConfigFileName> <toolbarTask>false</toolbarTask> <menubarTask>true</menubarTask> <accelerator>ctrl A</accelerator> <loadAtStartup>false</loadAtStartup> </explorerTask>
Create a new event tab
The first tab in the display can be used to create/read/update or delete events. Adding an event doesn't add data to the archive but marks a part of the data in the archive as being part of an event.
Data which is part of an event is treated differently than regular data in the archive. Data which is related to an event can for example have an longer expiry time.
Search for event
The second tab in the display can be used to search for events.
