Beginnings of a volume/corpus system
Posted by mholmes on 24 Dec 2008 in Activity log
Wrote the initial phase of a system for building PDF volumes. I now have XQuery that can retrieve a set of documents based on volume and/or issue number, or an arbitrary sequence, and return the results as a <teiCorpus>. I still have to figure out how metadata should be dropped in (derived from the first in the sequence, or some other approach), and how much metadata should go in through XQuery as opposed to XSLT. Both have access to the db's string resources, so both could do it.
