Stylesheets: Displaying Metadata Information

[taroth21]

The new stylesheets should be able to display the following metadata:

• file name
• file maintainer
• doc status
• ID
• "last changed" date for the file
• URL to the document (SVN or GitHub), see --repository

Maybe it would also be useful to display all metadata that is available within the document (for example, as a table: key - value)

Ok, these properties can be retrieved easily:

• file name: can be retrieved from xml:base attribute (is automatically inserted during profiling)
• file maintainer and doc status from DocManager's elements
• ID from xml:id

This needs a change in our SUSEDoc schema:

• URL to the document: I would prefer to use one of bibilographic elements like biblioid, bibliosource etc. As we currently use the entity &github.url; anyway, we can use this information on another place.

This is impossible to get through usual XSLT 1.0 transformation:

• "last changed" date of a file

This issue relates to openSUSE/daps#281 and needs to be fixed first.

[tomschr]

The file maintainer, doc status, and ID can probably be retrieved from DocManager tags. For "last changed" date for the file and file name, I assume, you need to enhance DAPS.

@taroth21: Would that help?

Tom, what is with the commits from July 16 shown here that implement VCS URLs via bibliosource (d43c32a, f1c33e5)? I think your last commit means that you now have implemented this feature twice, unfortunately.

Also, the "last changed" date thing is not fixed.

=> Reopening.

[tomschr]

@sknorr Yes, that was a mistake. I used "fix" instead of "issue". :cry:

Apart from that, I'm wondering if I should remove the bibliosource element and better rely on those DocManager elements.

[ghost]

I'd say yes, go for it...

[tomschr]

Some issues are not fixed, so reopen (accidently closed)

@taroth21 Is this still an issue? The current 2022 HTML stylesheet doesn't show any information at all.
