Random Archival Object Creator

Bash script for creating randomly named Archival Objects in an ArchivesSpace repository. The script was developed to automate the created of Archival Objects for use in performing Test synchronizations between systems. To use set the values in aspace.properties for your system:

DEV_USER=username
DEV_PASS=password
DEV_URL=https://archivesspace.url/api/
DEV_REPO=/repositories/number/
DEV_RESOURCE=resources/number

Several helper calls are included and commented out that list the repository numbers and resource numbers.
