Important

Broadly EPMs have been superseded by Ingredients and should be avoided. If you find you must install one, this guide aims to help.

Installing from GitHub repository

1. Clone from Github the Bazaar plugin repository (e.g. https://github.com/eprints/reports.git) to /opt/eprints3/lib/epm/ and fetch the required version. (If you are installing a different version to what they have already installed you will need to take great care when Integration with the Archive). 

cd /opt/eprints3/lib/epm/
git clone https://github.com/eprints/reports.git
cd reports
git checkout v3.2.1

2. Run the /opt/eprints3/ingredients/bazaar/tools/epm command to link the library from /opt/eprints3/lib/epm/ in the appropriate locations under /opt/eprints3/lib/ 

/opt/eprints3/ingredients/bazaar/tools/epm link_lib reports # EPrints 3.4.6+
/opt/eprints3/site_lib/tools/epm link_lib reports # EPrints 3.4.5-
