This page is a work in progress.
If your user account has the Write or Own permission level on an existing collection in DME, and if that existing collection has been configured to contain data files, the following command allows you to upload a data file to that collection. You can choose whether to upload synchronously (from your file system) or asynchronously (from a Globus endpoint):
dm_register_dataobject <description.json> <destination-path> [source-file]
The following table describes each parameter:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
<description.json> | A path to a file in your file system. In this file, specify the data and metadata that you want to upload. (Details TBD.) |
<destination-path> | A path within DME. Specify where you want the system to create the new collection. |
[source-file] | (TBD) |
For example, (TBD).
For instructions on performing similar tasks in the GUI, refer to the following pages:
- Registering a Data File from the Register Data File Page
- Registering a Data File from the Browse Page
If you uploaded the file from a Globus endpoint, you can view the progress of the upload in the GUI. For instructions, refer to Viewing Globus Upload Status.
