Question: Ruleset - Structure

[stefanCCS]

Hi, I have a question concerning Ruleset-Configuration. I want to reach the following structure after export: Periodical/Volume/Issue, with Periodical being one mets-File having mptr's to Volumens. And each Volume containing mets:div[LOGICAL] structure Periodical (with mptr to Periodical mets)/Volume including all Issues(!) --> this means, no(!) single mets-file for each issue. (Hint: This is a requirement by DDB

In the Ruleset I have configured something like this:

<division id="MyPeriodical" processTitle="'abc'+'-'+CatalogIDDigital" withWorkflow="false" use="createChildrenFromParent">
    <label>Periodical</label>
    <label lang="de">Mehrbändiges Werk</label>
</division>
<division id="MyVolume" processTitle="'abc'+'-'+CatalogIDDigital" withWorkflow="false" use="createChildrenFromParent">
    <label>Volume</label>
    <label lang="de">Band</label>
</division>
<division id="MyIssue" processTitle="'abc'+'-'+CatalogIDDigital">
    <label>Issue</label>
    <label lang="de">Ausgabe</label>
</division> 

...

<restriction division="MyPeriodical" unspecified="forbidden">
    <permit division="MyVolume"/>
    <permit key="..."/>
</restriction>
<restriction division="MyVolume" unspecified="forbidden">
    <permit division="MyIssue"/>
    <permit key="..."/>
</restriction>
<restriction division="MyIssue" unspecified="forbidden">
    <permit key="..."/>
</restriction>

During exports this creates dedicated mets-files for

• The Periodical
• each Volume
• each Issue ==> this is as expected, but unfortunately, not what I need.

(Hint: A "calendar-based-creating" structure, also creates mets-files per issue).

Therefore my question: Is there a Ruleset option to create an export as requested?(all issues in Volume mets?)

[matthias-ronge]

The internal representation in the form of processes corresponds to what you get in the export. So, you only need one level of superordinate process (MyPeriodical) and the subordinate process (MyVolume), and in this, you create all issues as ordinary division. Then the same should come out when exporting.

In the ruleset, it would look like this:

<division id="MyPeriodical" processTitle="'abc'+'-'+CatalogIDDigital" withWorkflow="false" use="createChildrenFromParent">
    <label>Periodical</label>
    <label lang="de">Mehrbändiges Werk</label>
</division>
<division id="MyVolume" processTitle="'abc'+'-'+CatalogIDDigital">
    <label>Volume</label>                                  <!-- ^^ -->
    <label lang="de">Band</label>
</division>
<division id="MyIssue">
                <!-- ^^ -->
    <label>Issue</label>
    <label lang="de">Ausgabe</label>
</division>

Have tried out - works as you said :-) Many thanks.

Maybe something to add to this description: ? https://github.com/kitodo/kitodo-production/wiki/Regelsatz-3.x

@solth: This one here is still an open documentation issue. Especially here, the use="createChildrenFromParent" looks like not to be explained here Regelsatz-3.x.

We have identified a lack of documentation regarding similar recently added keywords for ruleset and import over at https://github.com/kitodo/kitodo-production/discussions/5508#discussioncomment-4799068, too.
