bdn:IntermediateFormat.v2 - eXistDB Application

This repository contains the BdN IntermediateFormat-conversion application to produce several kinds of intermediate formats of the XML-Data of the DFG-Project "Bibliothek der Neologie"

Requirements

ant

Setup

• call ant to build the app as build/interformat.{VERSION}.xar
• integrate it into your eXistDB instance

Use

• call the IntermediateFormat API with GET -Parameter resource: http://localhost:{PORT}/exist/apps/interformat/rest/convert?resource={RESOURCE-URI} OR

• call intermediate_format.xql via REST with the GET-Parameter resource: http://localhost:{PORT}/exist/rest/apps/interformat/rest/intermediate_format.xql?resource={RESOURCE-URI}

• the resource must be from your eXist-instance context

• if you like to store the result add method=store as get-parameter

Changes of the Intermediate Format

• note: All changes are done (not quite right) in the tei-namespace!

"editorialNotes section"

• Section as last child of tei:TEI where all note[@type="editorial"] are collected during the preprocessing. Every note[@type="editorial"] is thus ignored in its original context

"aligned"

• new element; all tei:hi[@rend ="right-aligned" or @rend="center-aligned"] are converted to aligned[@rend ="right-aligned" or @rend="center-aligned"]
• name: "aligned",
• attributes: same as tei:hi in original data

"seg[@type='item' or @type='head' or @type='row']" vs tei:item or tei:head or tei:row

• conversion of seg[@type='item' or @type=''head or @type='row'] into tei:item or tei:head or tei:row

"rdgMarker"

• new element representing scribal abbreviations (sigla)
• name: "rdgMarker"
• attributes: @wit (witness without '#'), @ref (reference to @id of tei:lem or tei:rdg without '#'), @type (same as tei:rdg), @mark ('open' or 'close'), @context (context of the marker - "rdg" or "lem")

"tei:rdg" or "tei:lem"

• new attribute: @id (generated ID during the preprocessing, serving as referenced id by the rdgMarkers)

"tei:pb[@break="no"]"

• new attribute: @break="no" (In cases a tei:pb is directly preceeded or followed by a character not self whitespace)

text() and whitespace

• All whitespaces in text() are replaced by @ to save whitespace during the processing
