Definition of TEI sublanguage supported by Recogito #24

Open chiarcos opened 2 years ago

chiarcos commented 2 years ago

Problem:

(Some) external TEI files can be loaded but not annotated in Recogito
They are XML-valid. There is no warning, just no popup/editor window.

Examples:

Environment:

https://recogito.pelagios.org
tested with Chrome, Firefox under Ubuntu 20.04L, Bing, Chrome under Windows 10 -- no difference

Other observations:

TEI import of https://titus.fkidg1.uni-frankfurt.de/cordon/data/tei/DPN_SD_1869.tei.xml spits out all CDATA, even metadata.

Request/Question:

Is there any documentation of the TEI (sub-)language supported by Recogito? Keep in mind that TEI is an "extensible standard" (a devil's advocate may say, not a standard at all, but just a collection of violable conventions), so that users are actually encouraged to provide their own customizations, and whether or not any such extensions are supported must be made explicit. (Found nothing on Recogito website.)

Looking again at our data and the operational TEI samples found here and in the Recogito repo, it seems the functionality that isn't supported is word-level markup. So, for paragraph-level markup, it should work. The TEI tests use XPath, so, we're limited by the DomTree, and in the case of word-level markup, this just fails. (Not sure why that fails for selecting single words, maybe preceding or following spaces are required somewhere.)
