Test Data: Hybrid Mode

Purpose

This test dataset demonstrates Hybrid mode, which combines Root and Subdirectory modes. Root-level files are processed individually (with optional bundling), while subdirectories become their own records.

Processing Mode Configuration

  • Batch Entity: hybrid
  • Bundle Congruent Patterns: Yes (checked) - applies only to root-level files
  • Bundling Strategy: stem
  • Primary Source Extension: .obj

File Extensions to Select

  • .obj
  • .mtl
  • .jpg
  • .png
  • .glb
  • .fbx
  • .txt

OBJ File Options

  • Add MTL Files: Yes (checked)
  • Add Texture Files: Yes (checked)
  • Texture Search Directories: [Input Data Directory] (default)

Expected Behavior

When scanned with Hybrid mode: - 3 separate Zenodo records will be created - Root-level files are bundled using stem strategy (standalone_artifact_001) - Each subdirectory becomes its own record

Record 1 (standalone_artifact_001) - Root-level bundle:

  • standalone_artifact_001.obj (source)
  • standalone_artifact_001.mtl (primary)
  • standalone_reference_photo.png (secondary)

Record 2 (excavation_batch_alpha) - Subdirectory:

Contains all files from the excavation_batch_alpha/ folder: - fragment_001.obj (source) - fragment_002.obj (source) - fragment_003.obj (source) - shared_textures/clay_texture.jpg (secondary) - shared_textures/weathering_normal.jpg (secondary)

Record 3 (excavation_batch_beta) - Subdirectory:

Contains all files from the excavation_batch_beta/ folder: - complete_vessel.glb (source) - vessel_fragments.fbx (source) - documentation.txt (secondary)

File Count

  • Total files: 12
  • Root-level files: 3
  • Subdirectory files: 9
  • Primary sources: 6
  • Dependencies: 6

Use Case

This mode is ideal when: - Some files are standalone and should be processed individually - Other files are organized into folders that represent complete records - A dataset has mixed organizational patterns - Flexibility is needed to handle both individual files and grouped collections
