Features:

• Add a hidden form field to catch robot-generated feedback

Improvements:

• Update sir-trevor widgets from upstream

Upgrade guide.

This version has a runtime dependency on Riiif, which you must provide by adding the riiif into your Gemfile:

gem 'riiif', '~> 0.4.0'

Then run bundle install

If you wish to take advantage of Riiif's features (supplying a IIIF endpoint for uploaded files) you must additionally add this line to config/routes.rb

mount Riiif::Engine => '/images', as: 'riiif'

And add a file config/initializers/riiif.rb with the following contents:

Riiif::Image.file_resolver = Spotlight::CarrierwaveFileResolver.new

# Riiif::Image.authorization_service = IIIFAuthorizationService

# Riiif.not_found_image = 'app/assets/images/us_404.svg'
#
Riiif::Engine.config.cache_duration_in_days = 365

Another major area we hope to improve this sprint is the Item Detail page, to which we plan to add support for viewing multi-image items among other enhancements.
