Description

EULfedora ========= EULfedora is a `Python <http://www.python.org/>`_ module that provides utilities, API wrappers, and classes for interacting with the `Fedora-Commons Repository <http://fedora-commons.org/>`_ (version 3.4.x) in a pythonic, object-oriented way, with optional `Django <https://www.djangoproject.com/>`_ integration. **eulfedora.api** provides complete access to the Fedora API, primarily making use of Fedora's `REST API <https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/FCR30/REST+API>`_. This low-level interface is wrapped by **eulfedora.server.Repository** and **eulfedora.models.DigitalObject**, which provide a more abstract, object-oriented, and Pythonic way of interacting with a Fedora Repository or with individual objects and datastreams. When used with `Django <https://www.djangoproject.com/>`_, **eulfedora** can pull the Repository connection configuration from Django settings, and provides a custom management command for loading simple content models and fixture objects to the configured repository. Dependencies ------------ **eulfedora** currently depends on `eulxml <https://github.com/emory-libraries/eulxml>`_, `rdflib <http://www.rdflib.net/>`_, `python-dateutil <http://labix.org/python-dateutil>`_, `pycrypto <https://www.dlitz.net/software/pycrypto/>`_, `soaplib <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/soaplib/0.8.1>`_. **eulfedora** can be used without `Django <https://www.djangoproject.com/>`_, but additional functionality is available when used with Django.
