def has_file_datastream(args)
  ds_specs[args.fetch(:name, "content")]= {:type => args[:type], :label =>  args.fetch(:label,"File Datastream"), :control_group => args.fetch(:control_group,"M")}
end

#has_metadata(args) { ... } ⇒ Object

This method is used to specify the details of a datastream. args must include :name. Note that this method doesn’t actually execute the block, but stores it at the class level, to be executed by any future instantiations.

Parameters:

• args (Hash)

Options Hash (args):

• :type (Class) —

  The class that will represent this datastream, should extend “Datastream”

• :name (String) —

  the handle to refer to this datastream as

• :label (String) —

  sets the fedora label

• :control_group (String) — default: 'X' —

  must be one of ‘E’, ‘X’, ‘M’, ‘R’

• :disseminator (String) —

  Sets the disseminator location see ActiveFedora::Datastreams#add_disseminator_location_to_datastreams

• :url (String)
• :versionable (Boolean) — default: true —

  Should versioned datastreams be stored

Yields:

• block executed by some kinds of datastreams
