webapi doesn’t show items that don’t use ppn as identifier

[Matthias Ronge]

The WebAPI lists all processes with their respective identifiers, but cannot show a process if PPN wasn’t used upon process creation (e.g. when goobi wasn’t used along with a PICA catalogue). Instead, a “Given string is not a valid PPN identifier.” message is returned.

Example: When calling …/rest/processes you get:

…<goobiProcess><identifier>testMai10_082346</identifier><title>Anleitung zur Erkennung und genauen Prüfung aller in der neuen Auflage der deutschen Pharmacopoe aufgenommenen Stoffe</title></goobiProcess>…

Hence, the API should be able to reply to the command: …/rest/processes/testMai10_082346

but this returns “Given string is not a valid PPN identifier.”

Fix should be: remove of PPN validation of given input string as input could but must not be a PPN.

[Henning Gerhardt (henning-gerhardt)]

Remark: Identifier used for output and getting step information must be stored in workpieces property called "PPN digital a-Satz" or "PPN digital f-Satz"!

There is a general design problem underlying here. See bug #1033580 for more on this.
