v10 v11 75 75 .. _formatter: 76 76 77 Metadata formatter 78 ================== 77 === Metadata formatter === 79 78 80 Introduction 81 ------------ 79 80 '''Introduction''' 81 82 82 83 83 The metadata.show displays a metadata document using the default metadata display stylesheets. However it can be useful to provide alternate stylesheets for displaying the metadata. Consider a central catalog that is used by several partners. Each partner might have special branding and wish to emphasize particular components of the metadata document. … … 94 94 Another use-case for metadata formatters is to embed the metadata in other websites. Often a metadata document contains a very large amount of data and perhaps only a subset is interesting for a particular website or perhaps the branding/stylesheets needs to be customized to match the website. 95 95 96 Administration 97 -------------- 96 '''Administration''' 98 97 99 98 A metadata formatter is a bundle of files that can be uploaded to Geonetwork as a zip file (or in the simplest case just upload the xsl). … … 115 114 * Edit - This provides some online edit capabilities of the bundle. At the moment it allows editing of *existing* text files. Adding new files etc... maybe added in the future but is not possible at the moment. When edit is clicked a dialog with a list of all editable files are displayed in a tree and double clicking on a file will open a new window/tab with a text area containing the contents of the file. The webpage has buttons for saving the file or viewing a metadata with the style. The view options do *NOT* save the document before execution, that must be done before pressing the view buttons. 116 115 117 Bundle format 118 ------------- 116 '''Bundle format''' 119 117 120 118 A format bundle is at minimum a single xsl file. If the xsl file is uploaded it can have any name. On the server a folder will be created that contains the xsl file but renamed to view.xsl. … … 158 156 Only the view.xsl is required. If a single xsl file is uploaded then the rest of the directory structure will be created and some files will be added with default values. So a quick way to get started on a bundle is to upload an empty xsl file and then download it again. The downloaded zip file will have the correct layout and contain any other optional files. 159 157 160 Config.properties 161 ----------------- 158 '''Config.properties''' 162 159 163 160 The config.properties file contains some configuration options used when creating the xml document. Some of the properties include:
