adds export of seeAlso info and project hierarchy to RDF. for now, this is embedded in the modsCollection root element.
uses nodeIDs for Dublin Core RDF.
adjusts the Google Books translator to work with the latest revision of the site
renames the MODS translator to just MODS, because "Metadata Object Description Schema (MODS)" was too long for the export dialog
- fixes a bug that could result in the Scrape Progress chrome thingy sticking around forever
- makes chrome thingy disappear when URL changes or when tabs are switched
Item.addSeeAlso(itemID)
Item.removeSeeAlso(itemID)
Item.getSeeAlso() -- array of linked items
Relationships are mutual
Closes#82, Notes: see also table
- changes scrapers table to translators table; all import/export/web translators now belong in this table
- adds Scholar.Translate to handle translation issues. eventually, Scholar.Ingester.Document will become part of this interface
- adds Scholar_File_Interface (in fileInterface.js) to handle UI for export and eventually import. (David, when you have time, please connect Scholar_File_Interface.exportFile to a button.)
- adds an export translator for MODS. all of our metadata, but not our hierarchy (projects, etc.) translates directly and unambiguously into valid MODS. eventually, we can use RDF or another format to handle hierarchy.
- adds utilities.getVersion() and utilities.inArray() for simplified scraper coding
- fixes minor interface issues with the nifty chrome scraping status window
New methods:
Item.addTag(tag)
Item.getTags() -- array of tagIDs
Item.removeTag(tagID)
Tags.getName(tagID)
Tags.getID(tag)
Tags.add(text) -- returns tagID of new tag
Tags.purge() -- purge obsolete tags
The last two are for use by Item.addTag() and Item.removeTag(), respectively, and probably don't need to be used elsewhere.
Item.save() changed to not call notify() if a transaction is in progress, which is totally going to trip someone up at some point, and probably me, but it's better than a new parameter
Item.toArray() implemented -- builds up a multidimensional array of item data, converting all type ids to their textual equivalents -- currently has empty placeholder arrays for tags and seeAlso
Sample source output:
'itemID' => "2"
'itemType' => "book"
'title' => "Computer-Mediated Communication: Human-to-Human Communication Across the Internet"
'dateAdded' => "2006-03-12 05:25:50"
'dateModified' => "2006-03-12 05:25:50"
'publisher' => "Allyn & Bacon Publishers"
'year' => "2002"
'pages' => "347"
'ISBN' => "0-205-32145-3"
'creators' ...
'0' ...
'firstName' => "Susan B."
'lastName' => "Barnes"
'creatorType' => "author"
'notes' ...
'0' ...
'note' => "text"
'tags' ...
'seeAlso' ...
'1' ...
'note' => "text"
'tags' ...
'seeAlso' ...
'tags' ...
'seeAlso' ...
Sample note output:
'itemID' => "17"
'itemType' => "note"
'dateAdded' => "2006-06-27 04:21:16"
'dateModified' => "2006-06-27 04:21:16"
'note' => "text"
'sourceItemID' => "2"
'tags' ...
'seeAlso' ...
sourceItemID won't exist if it's an independent note.
We'll use the same format in reverse for fromArray, so Simon, let me know if you need more data (preserving type ids, etc) or want anything in a different form.
- Added 'note' item type
- Updated API to support independent note creation
Notes are, more or less, just regular items, with an item type of 1. They're created through Scholar.Notes.add(text, sourceItemID), which returns the itemID of the new note. sourceItemID is optional--if left out, an independent note will be created. (There's currently nothing stopping you from doing getNewItemByType(1) yourself, but the note would be contentless and broken, so you shouldn't do that.) Note data could've been stuffed into itemData, but I kept it separate in itemNotes to keep metadata searching faster and to keep things cleaner.
Methods calls that can be called on all items:
isNote() (same as testing for itemTypeID 1)
Method calls that can be called on source items only:
numNotes()
getNotes() (array of note itemIDs for a source)
Method calls that can be called on note items only:
updateNote(text)
setNoteSource(sourceItemID) (for changing source--use empty or false to make independent, which is currently what happens when you delete a note--will get option with #91)
getNote() (note content)
getNoteSource() (sourceItemID of a note)
Calling the above methods on the wrong item types will throw an error.
*** This will break note creation/display until David updates interface code. ***
