Request - Add field to Bulkload Loan Item Tool: subsample_as_partname

[camwebb]

Unless I'm missing something, there seems to be no way to specify the kind of part (partname in https://arctos.database.museum/info/loan_item_pick.cfm) when create_subsample = "true" in the Bulkload Loan Item tool.

I just needed to add 353 'leaf' subsamples of 'whole organism's to a loan. It would have taken ages to do manually, so I hacked the POST data string for https://arctos.database.museum/info/loan_item_pick.cfm (...part_id=2698145&ss_name_2698145=leaf&coll_obj_disposition_2698145=used+up&...), but would have been happier to use the bulkloader. Thanks.

Tool needs rewritten to comply with https://handbook.arctosdb.org/documentation/developer-guide.html#component-loaders anyway.

Unless someone has better ideas in the very near future, I'll just change create_subsample to optionally carry a part name and flag for subsample creation.

• NULL==just use the specified part
• YES==fail, that's not a valid part name
• leaf==create a subsample of the specified part as part name 'leaf', assuming that's acceptable in the collection
