Leiden+ support for verse #278

Open paregorios opened 7 years ago

paregorios commented 7 years ago

This request surfaced during the discussion of #112. The assertion is that there is currently no Leiden+ support for xml tags like <lg> and <l>, which are used for verse line groups and lines in TEI/EpiDoc.

rla2118 commented 7 years ago

Is there any way that this issue can be addressed before release?

paregorios commented 7 years ago

@rla2118 do you have any preference for syntax to use in Leiden+ for line groups and lines? cc @jcowey @HolgerEssler @rogerbagnall @jds15

rogerbagnall commented 7 years ago

I have no view on this.

HolgerEssler commented 7 years ago

I suggest to use <verse= instead of the usual <= to express <lg> instead of <ab>, e.g. <D=.1.column.<verse= that transforms to <div n="1" subtype="column" type="textpart"><lg> Within that block I would regularly use 1., 2. etc. for numbering lines with the difference that they do not transform to <lb/> (as they do now), but to <l> wrapped around the whole verse.

jcowey commented 7 years ago

This is not going to happen quickly as it is relatively complex. I suggest to you @paregorios punting this to post merge projects

paregorios commented 7 years ago

@jcowey you're right given the handling of individual lines.
