Change domain name creation rule

create domain rule:

  • For books: match BCMSID e.g. BCMS1234
  • For collection: match BCMSID + add suffix collect e.g. BCMS1234collect

[original issue]

As raised in #616 (closed), we need to change the domain name creation rule.

The domain name limitations are:

  • Must match [a-z][a-z0-9_]+$ (start with a letter and only contains alphanumeric chars plus underscore))
  • is 20 chars or less

Currently we create a domain name with rule: the first 5 characters of the organization abbreviation and an autoincrement number ex. abbre_10. Additionally, if we are creating a collection domain we should add collect at the end (see #652 (closed))

I think the publisher abbreviation limitations are the same as the domain name -- is that correct?

Before I suggest an alternative, can you confirm if the character limit for either domain name or publisher abbreviation can be changed?
