As many of you know, we at the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media have been busy working on the next generation of Omeka, Omeka S.
Omeka S is different from Omeka Classic (aka, the 2.x series) in several respects, both in conception and in technology stack.
The two primary conceptual differences are that 1) it aims to be ‘multisite’, fitting the needs of institutions that need to deploy many Omeka sites from one installation, and 2) it aims to have better interoperability with other systems, such as Fedora, DSpace, and Linked Open Data.
More details about the evolving shape of Omeka S can be found on the "What to expect in Omeka S" page and in the README file.
The End User Documentation has its own repository.
Specific pages include:
- Glossary of Omeka S Concepts
- Admin Dashboard
- Items
- Item Sets
- Vocabularies
- Resource Templates
- Users
- Modules
- Jobs
- Sites
- Settings
Current packaged releases of Omeka S are available on the releases page.
The technology stack requirements for Omeka S move to significantly more contemporary practices and technologies.
- Linux
- Apache
- MySql 5.5.3+ and the MySQL driver for PDO
- PHP 5.5+ (the latest stable version preferred) and the PHP extensions for PDO
Developer documentation is currently in this GitHub wiki.
Developers will also be interested in browsing the code for Omeka S modules in the modules organization.
Omeka uses the following libraries, among others:
