Web Portal: Shopping Cart Download

Basics

There are four points of relevance:

Data are downloaded via the shopping cart interface (credit card not required).
Data are downloaded recursively (i.e. if you select the Project object, then all data under that Project are downloaded)
As the data are downloaded they can be converted (transcoded) to other formats.
The destination can be one of several different destination sinks or a local (to your browser) file system.
- Sinks can be used to secure transfer data from DaRIS to remote SSH servers via SFTP or SCP.
- For browser downloads to your local file system, the data are just packed into a container (e.g. zip/tar) and then you unpack yourself to access the contents
Meta-data are not currently downloaded

Sinks

Sinks must be set up ahead of time. Generally, the administrator creates these. However, for some sink types, e.g. SFTP and SCP, you will need to supply a credential and a destination file system path.
