Installation

The datacite package is on PyPI so all you need is: ::

pip install datacite

Documentation

Documentation is readable at http://datacite.readthedocs.io/ or can be built using Sphinx: ::

Changes

Version v1.2.0 (released 2024-10-17):

• Updates package setup and adds black formatting

• Adds support for DataCite Metadata Schema v4.5. The version 4.5 jsonschema includes a number of changes and improvements:

  • Switches to jsonschema 2019-09 and adds more complete validation to catch mistyped elements
  • Switches publisher from a string to an object. This means you will need to change publisher to be structured like "publisher": {"name": "Invenio Software"} when you use version 4.5. This change is needed to support the addition of publisher identifiers.
  • Removes the identifiers field and added doi, prefix, and suffix fields. These fields are clearer, and DataCite appears to be moving away from the combined identifiers field. doi is not a required field since you may or may not have a DOI depending on your workflow.
  • Adds new relatedItem elements for publication metadata
  • Switches geolocation point values to numbers. This is to enable validation and is consistent with GeoJson and InvenioRDM. It is different from the DataCite REST API which uses strings, and submitted numbers will be turned into strings by DataCite.
  • Reorganizes geolocationPolygon to how DataCite is currently rendering this metadata
  • Adds support for the new resourceTypeGeneral and relationType values
  • General jsonschema organization improvements

Version v1.1.3 (released 2023-03-20):

• Updates dependency versions and adds python 3.9 support
• Changes internal definition name for affiliation in 4.3 schema

Version v1.1.2 (released 2021-06-22):

• Standardizes function names in DataCiteRESTClient. Old functions will be depreciated in a future release

Version v1.1.1 (released 2021-04-20):

• Fixes DataCiteRESTClient attributes' type. Prefix, username and password are always cast to string.

Version v1.1.0 (released 2021-04-15):

• Adds full support for DataCite Metadata Schema v4.2 and v4.3 XML generation.

• Uses Official DataCite JSON Schema, which has the following notable changes from the previous schema:

  • Uses "identifiers" which is a combination of the XML "identifier" and "alternativeIdentifiers" elements
  • "creatorName" is now "name"
  • "contributorName" is now "name"
  • "affiliations" is now "affiliation" (is still an array)
  • "affilition" is now "name"
  • There is no longer a funder identifier object (the identifier and type are just elements)

• Removes Python 2 support

• Removes the old way of testing with DataCite: test mode for the MDS APIs and the test DOI 10.5072

Version v1.0.1 (released 2018-03-08):
