Custom XML now fully working, with validation
: Martin Holmes
Minutes: 300
Made a lot of progress today, with few interruptions happening:
- The custom XML schema is complete (first iteration, anyway).
- All census documents are being successfully converted to XML valid against the schema.
- The build process does the conversion, and follows it up with RNG and Schematron validation (although there is no Schematron as yet in the schema).
- Many, many individual errors in the source documents have been detected and fixed, by PD or by me.
- Various compromises are in place for bad data that must be retained and dealt with somehow.
We’re now ready to start generating HTML from the individual census records.
