Abbott Steps
- Generate Converter XSL
-This step generates the converter XSL, it is an XSL Transformation process that uses a meta-stylesheet to generate another stylesheet.The process involves filtering attributes flattening the XML structure for the elements not present in the
TEI-A. Not much work has been done on generating rules regarding teiHeader The converter XSL has rules
for what needs to be done for every element/attribute.
The logic for generating the converter stylesheet is independent of the collection, it depends only on the
element/attribute list in the TEI-A schema.
- Shell Script (sed/awk) to modify Converter
The shell script modifies the generated converter stylesheet.
Brian Can you add what kinds of modifications...
- Shell Script that generate TEI-A Files
This script works on a folder and processes each file in the folder through the XSL transformation using
the stylesheet generated by the transformer.
- Shell Script sed/awk on generated TEI-A files
Some regexp expressions are run on the generated TEI-A files.
- Validation of the TEI-A files and Report Generation
The generated TEI-A files are validated and a report generated.
- Identify Files that failed the process
The files that fail validation are printed on the console.
- Morphadorner
The directory containing files are morphadorned.
Issues
-Issues about teiHeader -TEI-A header? We need to have a step in this process that handles the teiHeader and Do we know what needs to be done to the header Martin? Steve? -Anyone
-Should we explore xupdate to document what has been changed and document that in the code using a namespace. It would allow
rollback to be more granular.-This however is not advised at the moment there are many balls in the air and we need to evaluate the
merits and do some more investigations -It seems not much work has gone into xupdate since 2004, either the standard is stable or it is defunct. Amit has had some experience with xupdate processors that implement xupdate specs.
