Configure the GeoDiscovery Application
./app/controllers/catalog_controller.rb
Probably the file we would use the most for simple configurations.
configure_blacklight
block is where we make most configuration settings such as critical Solr settings and paramters.
Default rows returned from Solr.
- Default Facets (e.g.
config.add_facet_field Settings.Fields.INDEX_YEAR, label: "Year", limit: 10
)- See settings.yml to see where these are coming from.
- Decide if facets are collapsed by default
- What component will render component?
- The order they appear is the order they will render on the UI
- Item Relationships
- Search Results Field
- Item Show page/View page display
- Most Aardvark fields shown by default, we may decide we want to add/remove
- Sort values
- Show tools (SMS, Email)
- Basemap for the map
These things might be rendered through a helper method. Examples including truncating abstracts or the helper that renders HTML in the rights field (the link to our Copyright and Digital Collections policy page).
./config/settings.yml
