Document how staging and production ASpace should be used

marlo-longley opened this issue · comments

@thatbudakguy currently we have this set in vault/puppet for the VT staging server: ASPACE_URL=http://spec-as-stage.stanford.edu:8089. It is set to spec-as-prod for the production server.

We index from the stored file in the repo, which we get from running the rake download task. That task is the only place that really uses ASPACE_URL. So probably nobody would do this on the staging server anyway. But just trying to be the least confusing.

I'm gathering we should set the VT staging server to point to production ASpace as well. But wanted to bounce that off someone.

Yes, I think we should set the staging server to have ASPACE_URL=http://spec-as-prod.stanford.edu:8089.

If you ever want to generate some EAD out of staging instead of production, that should be an operation where you manually specify ASPACE_URL. The default should always be prod.
