- <para>Some quick features can be turned on and off by changing variable values in the file <filename>/openils/var/web/opac/skin/default/js/rdedail.js</filename>. \r

- </section> \r
- <section xml:id="BibTemplate">\r
- <title>BibTemplate</title>\r
- <para>BibTemplate is an Evergreen-custom Dojo module which can be used to retrieve and format XML data served by the Evergreen unAPI service. unAPI is a protocol for requesting known objects in specific formats, and Evergreen uses this to supply data – bibliographic records, metarecords, monograph holdings information, Located URIs, and more to come – \r
- in many different formats from MARCXML to MODS to custom XML applications.</para> \r
- <para>Managing the display of information from raw XML can be difficult, and the purpose of BibTemplate is to make this simpler, as well as move the display closer to the \r
- client and away from the source data. This is good from a separation-of-responsibilities perspective, and also makes it easier to contain and control local customization.</para>\r
- <para>BibTemplate supports the foloowing Evergreen metadata formats:</para>\r
- <itemizedlist>\r
- <listitem>MARCXML - datatype='marcxml-full' (default)</listitem> \r
- <listitem>MODS 3.3: datatype='mods33'</listitem>\r
- <listitem>Dublin Core: datatype='rdf_dc'</listitem>\r
- <listitem>FGDC: datatype='fgdc'</listitem>\r
- </itemizedlist> \r
- <simplesect>\r
- <title>HTML API</title>\r
- <para>BibTemplate follows the Dojo convention of adding attributes to existing (X)HTML in order to progressively change its behavior. The 1.6.0 HTML API consists of a \r
- set of attributes that are added to existing OPAC markup, and fall into two classes:</para>\r
- <itemizedlist>\r
- <listitem> The slot marker – Elements that denote the location of bibliographic data to insert.</listitem>\r
- <listitem>The slot formatter – Elements that specify how the named data should be formatted for display.</listitem>\r
- </itemizedlist> \r
- </simplesect>\r
- <simplesect>\r
- <title>Slot Marker</title>\r
- <para>A slot marker is any displayable HTML element that has a type attribute with a value starting with opac/slot-data. This element will become the container \r
- for the formatted data. A slot marker is required in order to retrieve, format and display data using BibTemplate. A slot marker must also have an \r
- attribute called query containing a CSS3 selector. This selector is applied to the XML returned by the unAPI service in order to gather the specific XML \r
- Nodes that should be considered for formatting.</para>\r
- <para>The slot marker can also specify the format of the data to be returned from the unAPI service. This can be specified by adding +{format} to the type \r
- attribute, as in opac/slot-data+mods33-full. The default data format is marcxml-uri, which is an augmented MARCXML record containing Located URI information \r
- and unAPI links.</para>\r
- <para>Example of a slot marker:</para>\r
- <screen><p type='opac/slot-data' query='datafield[tag=245]'></p></screen>\r
- <para>Most useful attribute match operators include:</para>\r
- <itemizedlist>\r
- <listitem> datafield[tag=245] - exact match</listitem>\r
- <listitem>datafield[tag^=65] - match start of value</listitem>\r
- </itemizedlist> \r
- <tip><para>Selectors always narrow, so select broadly and iterate through the NodeList</para></tip>\r
- </simplesect>\r
- <simplesect>\r
- <title>Slot Formatter</title>\r
- <para>A slot formatter is any invisible HTML element which has a type attribute with the value of opac/slot-format. (NOTE: before 1.6.0.4, only <script> \r
- elements were supported, though this restriction is now removed to support Internet Explorer.) Only one slot formatter element is allowed in each slot. The text contents \r
- of this element are wrapped in a JavaScript function and run for each node returned by the query CSS3 selector specified on the slot marker. This function is passed \r
- one argument, called item, which an XML Node captured by the selector. This function should return HTML text. The output for all runs of the slot formatter is \r
- concatenated into a single string and used to replace the contents of the slot marker.</para>\r
- <para>The slot formatter is optional, and if not supplied BibTemplate will create a simple function which extracts and returns the text content of the XML Nodes \r
- specified in the CSS3 selector.</para>\r
- <para>Example of a slot formatter:</para>\r
- <programlisting>\r
- <td class='rdetail_item' id='rdetail_online' type='opac/slot-data' query='volumes volume uris uri' join=", ">\r
- <script type='opac/slot-format'><![CDATA[\r
- var link = '<a href="' + item.getAttribute('href') + '">' + item.getAttribute('label') + '</a>';\r
- if (item.getAttribute('use_restriction'))\r
- link += ' (Use restriction: ' + item.getAttribute('use_restriction') + ')';\r
- return link;\r
- ]]></script>\r
- </td>\r
- </programlisting>\r
- </simplesect>\r
- <simplesect>\r
- <title>JavaScript API</title>\r
- <para>In order for BibTemplate to find the slot markers and invoke the slot formatters JavaScript renderer must be instantiated and called. This must be done \r
- for each record that is to contribute to a pages display. The API for this is simple and straight-forward:</para>\r
- <para>The slot formatter is optional, and if not supplied BibTemplate will create a simple function which extracts and returns the text content of the XML Nodes \r
- specified in the CSS3 selector.</para>\r
- <para>Example of a slot formatter:</para>\r
- <programlisting>\r
- dojo.require('openils.BibTemplate'); // Tell Dojo to load BibTemplate, if it is not already loaded\r
- \r
- // Create a renderer supplying the record id and the short name of the org unit, if known, and call the render() method \r
- new openils.BibTemplate({ record : new CGI().param('r'), org_unit : here.shortname() }).render(); \r
-\r
- </programlisting>\r
- <para>The argument hash supplied to the new openils.BibTemplate() constructor can have the following properties:</para>\r
- <itemizedlist>\r
- <listitem>record – The bibliographic record ID.</listitem>\r
- <listitem>org_unit – The relevant Organizational Unit, used to restrict holdings scope as on a search result or record detail page.</listitem>\r
- <listitem>root – The root element within the web page that BibTemplate should search for slot markers</listitem>\r
- </itemizedlist> \r
- </simplesect>\r
- <simplesect>\r
- <title>BibTemplate Examples</title>\r
- <para>This is all that we had to add to display the contents of an arbitrary MARC field:</para>\r
- <programlisting>\r
- <tr>\r
- <td>Bibliography note</td>\r
- <td type='opac/slot-data' query='datafield[tag=504]'></td>\r
- </tr>\r
- </programlisting>\r
- <note><para>If multiple fields match, they are displayed on consecutive lines within the same left-hand cell.</para></note>\r
- <para>To display a specific MARC subfield, add that subfield to the query attribute.</para>\r
- <para>For example, subfield $a is the only user-oriented subfield in field 586 (Awards Note)</para>\r
- <programlisting>\r
- <tr>\r
- <td>Awards note</td>\r

+ <title>Customizing the Details Page</title>
+ <para>There are many options when customizing the details page in Evergreen. The default settings are effective for most libraries, but it is important to understand the full potential
+ of Evergreen when displaying the details of items.</para>
+ <para>Some quick features can be turned on and off by changing variable values in the file <filename>/openils/var/web/opac/skin/default/js/rdedail.js</filename>.
+ You will notice the section at the top of this file called <quote>Per-skin configuration settings</quote>. Changing setting in this section can control several features includuing
+ limiting results to local only or showing copy location or displaying serial holdings. Form this section you can also enable refworks and set the Refworks host URL.</para>
+ <para>Some copy level details settings can be turned on and off from <filename>/openils/var/web/opac/skin/default/js/copy_details.js</filename> including displaying certain fields
+ such as due date in the OPAC.</para>
+ <para>An important file is the <filename>/openils/var/web/opac/skin/default/xml/rdetail/rdetail_summary.xml</filename> file. This file allows you to control which field to display in
+ the details summary of the record. The new <link linkend='googlebookslink'>BibTemnplate</link> feature makes this file even more powerful by allowing you to display any marc fields
+ with a variey of formatting options.</para>
+ <para>The <filename>/openils/var/web/opac/skin/default/xml/rdetail/rdetail_copyinfo.xml</filename> file allows you to format the display of the copy information.</para>

+ <section xml:id="BibTemplate">
+ <title>BibTemplate</title>
+ <para>BibTemplate is an Evergreen-custom Dojo module which can be used to retrieve and format XML data served by the Evergreen unAPI service. unAPI is a protocol for requesting known objects in specific formats, and Evergreen uses this to supply data – bibliographic records, metarecords, monograph holdings information, Located URIs, and more to come –
+ in many different formats from MARCXML to MODS to custom XML applications.</para>
+ <para>Managing the display of information from raw XML can be difficult, and the purpose of BibTemplate is to make this simpler, as well as move the display closer to the
+ client and away from the source data. This is good from a separation-of-responsibilities perspective, and also makes it easier to contain and control local customization.</para>
+ <para>BibTemplate supports the foloowing Evergreen metadata formats:</para>
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>MARCXML - datatype='marcxml-full' (default)</listitem>
+ <listitem>MODS 3.3: datatype='mods33'</listitem>
+ <listitem>Dublin Core: datatype='rdf_dc'</listitem>
+ <listitem>FGDC: datatype='fgdc'</listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ <simplesect>
+ <title>HTML API</title>
+ <para>BibTemplate follows the Dojo convention of adding attributes to existing (X)HTML in order to progressively change its behavior. The 1.6.0 HTML API consists of a
+ set of attributes that are added to existing OPAC markup, and fall into two classes:</para>
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem> The slot marker – Elements that denote the location of bibliographic data to insert.</listitem>
+ <listitem>The slot formatter – Elements that specify how the named data should be formatted for display.</listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ </simplesect>
+ <simplesect>
+ <title>Slot Marker</title>
+ <para>A slot marker is any displayable HTML element that has a type attribute with a value starting with opac/slot-data. This element will become the container
+ for the formatted data. A slot marker is required in order to retrieve, format and display data using BibTemplate. A slot marker must also have an
+ attribute called query containing a CSS3 selector. This selector is applied to the XML returned by the unAPI service in order to gather the specific XML
+ Nodes that should be considered for formatting.</para>
+ <para>The slot marker can also specify the format of the data to be returned from the unAPI service. This can be specified by adding +{format} to the type
+ attribute, as in opac/slot-data+mods33-full. The default data format is marcxml-uri, which is an augmented MARCXML record containing Located URI information
+ and unAPI links.</para>
+ <para>Example of a slot marker:</para>
+ <screen><p type='opac/slot-data' query='datafield[tag=245]'></p></screen>
+ <para>Most useful attribute match operators include:</para>
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem> datafield[tag=245] - exact match</listitem>
+ <listitem>datafield[tag^=65] - match start of value</listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ <tip><para>Selectors always narrow, so select broadly and iterate through the NodeList</para></tip>
+ </simplesect>
+ <simplesect>
+ <title>Slot Formatter</title>
+ <para>A slot formatter is any invisible HTML element which has a type attribute with the value of opac/slot-format. (NOTE: before 1.6.0.4, only <script>
+ elements were supported, though this restriction is now removed to support Internet Explorer.) Only one slot formatter element is allowed in each slot. The text contents
+ of this element are wrapped in a JavaScript function and run for each node returned by the query CSS3 selector specified on the slot marker. This function is passed
+ one argument, called item, which an XML Node captured by the selector. This function should return HTML text. The output for all runs of the slot formatter is
+ concatenated into a single string and used to replace the contents of the slot marker.</para>
+ <para>The slot formatter is optional, and if not supplied BibTemplate will create a simple function which extracts and returns the text content of the XML Nodes
+ specified in the CSS3 selector.</para>
+ <para>Example of a slot formatter:</para>
+ <programlisting>
+ <td class='rdetail_item' id='rdetail_online' type='opac/slot-data' query='volumes volume uris uri' join=", ">
+ <script type='opac/slot-format'><![CDATA[
+ var link = '<a href="' + item.getAttribute('href') + '">' + item.getAttribute('label') + '</a>';
+ if (item.getAttribute('use_restriction'))
+ link += ' (Use restriction: ' + item.getAttribute('use_restriction') + ')';
+ return link;
+ ]]></script>
+ </td>
+ </programlisting>
+ </simplesect>
+ <simplesect>
+ <title>JavaScript API</title>
+ <para>In order for BibTemplate to find the slot markers and invoke the slot formatters JavaScript renderer must be instantiated and called. This must be done
+ for each record that is to contribute to a pages display. The API for this is simple and straight-forward:</para>
+ <para>The slot formatter is optional, and if not supplied BibTemplate will create a simple function which extracts and returns the text content of the XML Nodes
+ specified in the CSS3 selector.</para>
+ <para>Example of a slot formatter:</para>
+ <programlisting>
+ dojo.require('openils.BibTemplate'); // Tell Dojo to load BibTemplate, if it is not already loaded
+
+ // Create a renderer supplying the record id and the short name of the org unit, if known, and call the render() method
+ new openils.BibTemplate({ record : new CGI().param('r'), org_unit : here.shortname() }).render();
+
+ </programlisting>
+ <para>The argument hash supplied to the new openils.BibTemplate() constructor can have the following properties:</para>
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>record – The bibliographic record ID.</listitem>
+ <listitem>org_unit – The relevant Organizational Unit, used to restrict holdings scope as on a search result or record detail page.</listitem>
+ <listitem>root – The root element within the web page that BibTemplate should search for slot markers</listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ </simplesect>

+ <title>BibTemplate Examples</title>
+ <para>This is all that we had to add to display the contents of an arbitrary MARC field:</para>

+ <tr>
+ <td>Bibliography note</td>
+ <td type='opac/slot-data' query='datafield[tag=504]'></td>
+ </tr>
+ </programlisting>
+ <note><para>If multiple fields match, they are displayed on consecutive lines within the same left-hand cell.</para></note>
+ <para>To display a specific MARC subfield, add that subfield to the query attribute.</para>
+ <para>For example, subfield $a is the only user-oriented subfield in field 586 (Awards Note)</para>
+ <programlisting>
