# MARC::Transform(3pm)

Perl module to transform a MARC record using a YAML configuration file

## NAME

MARC::Transform - Perl module to transform a MARC record using a YAML configuration file

## VERSION

Version 0.003009

## SYNOPSIS

**Perl script:**

```
    use MARC::Transform;
    # For this synopsis, we create a small record:
    my $record = MARC::Record->new();
    $record->insert_fields_ordered( MARC::Field->new(
                                    '501', '', '',
                                    'a' => 'foo',
                                    'b' => '1',
                                    'c' => 'bar',
                                    'd' => 'bor' ) );
    print "--init record--\n". $record->as_formatted ."\n";
    # We transform our record with our YAML configuration file
    # with its absolute path (or relative if called
    # from the right path ) :
    $record = MARC::Transform->new ( $record, "/path/conf.yaml" );
    # You can also define your YAML into a variable:
    my $yaml="delete : f501d\n";
    # and use it to transform the record:
    $record = MARC::Transform->new ( $record, $yaml );
    print "\n--transformed record--\n". $record->as_formatted ."\n";
```

**conf.yaml:**

```
    ---
    condition : $f501a eq "foo"
    create :
     f502a : New 502a subfield's value
    update :
      $f501b : \&LUT("$this")
    LUT :
     1 : first
     2 : second value in this LUT (LookUp Table)
    ---
    delete : f501c
```

**Result** (with `"$record->as_formatted"`):

```
    --init record--
    LDR
    501    _afoo
           _b1
           _cbar
           _dbor

    --transformed record--
    LDR
    501    _afoo
           _bfirst
    502    _aNew 502a subfield's value
```

## DESCRIPTION

This is a Perl module to transform a MARC record using a YAML configuration file.

It allows you to **create** , **update** , **delete** , **duplicate** fields and subfields of a record. You can also use **scripts** and **lookup tables**. You can specify **conditions** to execute these actions.

All conditions, actions, functions and lookup tables are **defined in the YAML**.

MARC::Transform use MARC::Record.

## METHOD

### new()

```
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record, "/path/conf.yaml" );
```

This is the only method you'll use. It takes a MARC::Record object and a YAML path as arguments. You can also define your YAML into a variable and use it to transform the record like this :

```
    my $yaml="delete : f501d\n";
    $record = MARC::Transform->new ( $record, $yaml );
```

*Optional hash reference*

As we will see in more detail below, it is possible to add a hash reference (named `$mth` into yaml) as the third optional argument.

```
    my $record = MARC::Record->new(); my $hashref = {'var' => 'foo'};
    my $yaml = 'create :
     f500a : $$mth{"var"}
    ';
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,$yaml,$hashref);
    #the new 500$a subfield's value is "foo"
```

*Verbose mode*

Each YAML rule (see basis below to understand what is a rule) generates a script that is evaluated, in the record, for each field and subfield specified in the condition (If there is a condition). By adding a fourth optional argument **1** to the method, it displays the generated script. This can be useful to understand what is happening:

```
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,"/path/conf.yaml",0,1);
```

*Define YAML configuration file encoding*

You can force use of a specific encoding to open YAML configuration file by specifying it in the fifth optional argument like this (e.g. for an UTF-8 file)

```
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,"/path/conf.yaml",0,0,"UTF-8");
```

or like this (e.g. for an Latin1 file)

```
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,"/path/conf.yaml",0,0,"Latin1");
```

## YAML

### Basis

\- **YAML is divided in rules** (separated by --- ), each rule is executed one after the other, rules without condition will always be executed:

```
    ---
    condition : $f501a eq "foo"
    create :
     f600a : new field value
    ---
    delete : f501c
    ---
```

\- **conditions are written in perl**, which allows great flexibility. They must be defined with `"condition : "`

```
    condition : ($f501a=~/foo/ and $f503a=~/bar/) or ($f102a eq "bib")
    # if a 501$a and 503$a contain foo and bar, or if a 102$a = bib
```

\- Conditions test records **field by field** (only for fields defined in the condition)

For example, this means, that if we have more '501' fields in the record, if our condition is `"$f501a eq "foo" and $f501b eq "bar""`, that condition will be true only if a '501' field has a 'a' subfield = "foo" AND a 'b' subfield = 'bar' (it will be false if there is a '501' field with a 'a' subfield = "foo" and ANOTHER '501' field with a 'b' subfield = "bar").

\- It's possible to run more than one different actions in a single rule:

```
    ---
    condition : $f501a eq "foo"
    create :
     f600a : new field value
    delete : f501c
    ---
```

\- The order in which actions are written does not matter. Actions will always be executed in the following order:

- •

  create

- •

  duplicatefield

- •

  forceupdate

- •

  forceupdatefirst

- •

  update

- •

  updatefirst

- •

  execute

- •

  delete

\- **Each rule can be divided into sub-rules** (separated by - ) similar to 'if,elsif' or 'switch,case' scripts. If the first sub-rule's condition is false, the following sub-rule's condition is tested. When the sub-rule's condition is true (or if a sub-rule has no condition), the following sub-rules are not read.

```
    ---
    -
     condition : $f501a eq "foo"
     create :
      f502a : value if foo
    -
     condition : $f501a eq "bar"
     create :
      f502a : value elsif bar
    -
     create :
      f502a : value else
    ---
    # It is obvious that if a sub-rule has no condition, it will be
    # considered as an 'else' (following sub-rules will not be read)
```

\- It is not allowed to define more than one similar action into a single (sub-)rule. However, it remains possible to execute a similar action several times in a single rule (refer to the specific syntax of each action in order to see how to do this):

.   this is **not** allowed:

```
    ---
    delete : f501b
    delete : f501c
```

.   it works:

```
    ---
    delete :
     - f501b
     - f501c
```

*a small script to test your rules*

\- **it is strongly recommended to test each rule on a test record before using it on a large batch of records**. You can create a script (e.g. `"test.pl"`) with the contents below (that you will adapt to test your rules) and run it with `"perl ./test.pl"` :

```
    #!/usr/bin/perl
    use MARC::Transform;
    my $record = MARC::Record->new();
    $record->leader('optional leader');
    $record->insert_fields_ordered( MARC::Field->new('005', 'controlfield_content'));
    $record->insert_fields_ordered( MARC::Field->new('501', '', '', 'a' => 'foo', 'b' => 'bar') );
    print "\n--init record--\n". $record->as_formatted ."\n";
    my $yaml='---
    condition : $f501a eq "foo"
    create :
     f502a : condition is true
    ';
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,$yaml);
    print "\n--transformed record--\n". $record->as_formatted ."\n";
```

### Field's and subfield's naming convention

*In actions*

\- Field's and subfield's names are very important:

- •

  They must begin with the letter **f** followed by the **3-digit** field name (e.g. f099), followed, for the subfields, by their **letter or digit** (e.g. **f501b**).

- •

  Controlfields names begin with the letter **f** followed by **3-digit lower than 010** followed by **underscore** (e.g. **f005\_**).

- •

  **Indicators** must begin with the letter **i**, followed by the **3-digit** field name followed by the indicator's position (**1 or 2**) (e.g. **i0991**).

- •

  In actions, you can define **a subfield directly** (or an indicator with i1 or i2). Depending on context, it refers to the condition's field (if we define only one field to be tested in the condition), or to the field currently being processed in action:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f501a eq "foo"
      create :
       b : new 'b' subfield's value in unique condition's field (501)
       f600 :
        i1 : 1
        a : new subfield (a) in this new 600 field
      ---
  ```

*In conditions*

- •

  In conditions, Field's and subfield's naming convention follow the **same rules that actions**, but they must be **preceded by a dollar signs $** (e.g. `$f110c` for a subfield or `$i0991` for an indicator).

- •

  The record leader can be defined with **$ldr**.

- •

  It's possible to test only one character's value in subfields or leader. To do this, you have to add the **this character's position from 0 to 99**:

  ```
      #to test the 3rd char. in leader and the 12e char. in '501$a':
      condition : $ldr2 eq "t" and $f501a11 eq "z"
  ```

*Run actions only on the condition's fields*

We have already seen that to refers to the condition's field in actions, it is possible to define subfields directly. It works only if we define only one field to be tested in the condition. If we ve'got more than one field in condition, their **names must also begin with $** to refer them (it works also with a unique field in condition).

For example, if you test `$f501a` value's in condition:

\- this will delete 'c' subfields only in the '501' field which is true in the condition:

```
    condition : $f501a eq "foo" and defined $f501b
    delete : $f501c
```

\- this will delete 'c' subfields in all '501' fields:

```
    condition : $f501a eq "foo" and defined $f501b
    delete : f501c
```

\- this will create a new '701' field with a 'c' subfield containing '501$a' subfield's value defined in the condition:

```
    condition : defined $f501a
    create :
     f701c : $f501a
```

**WARNING**: To get **subfield's value of** the condition's fields, these subfields must be defined in the condition:

\- it **doesn't** work:

```
    condition : $f501a eq "foo"
    create :
     f701a : $f501c
```

\- it works (create a new '701' field with a subfield 'a' containing the condition's '501$c' subfield's value ):

```
    condition : $f501a eq "foo" and defined $f501c
    create :
     f701a : $f501c
```

\- this restriction is true only for the subfield's values, but isn't true to specify the fields affected by an action: the example below will create a new 'c' subfield **in a field defined in the condition**.

```
    condition : $f501a eq "foo" and $f110a == 2
    create :
     $f501c : new subfield value
    # If there are multiple '501' fields, only the one with a
    # subfield 'a'='foo' will have a new 'c' subfield created
```

### Actions

*create*

- •

  As the name suggests, this action allows you to create new fields and subfields.

- •

  Syntax:

  ```
      # basic:
      create :
       <subfield name> : <value>

      # to create two subfields (in one field) with same name:
      create :
       <subfield name> :
        - <value>
        - <value>

      # advanced:
      create :
       <field name> :
        <subfield name> :
         - <value>
         - <value>
        <subfield name> : <value>
  ```

- •

  Example:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f501a eq "foo"
      create :
       b : new subfield's value on the condition's field
       f502a : this is the subfield's value of a new 502 field
       f502b :
        - this is the first 'b' value of another new 502
        - this is the 2nd 'b' value of this another new 502
       f600 :
        a :
         - first 'a' subfield of this new 600 field
         - second 'a' subfield of this new 600 field
        b : the 600b value
  ```

  result (with `"$record->as_formatted"`):

  ```
      --init record--
      LDR
      501    _afoo
             _b1
             _cbar
      --transformed record--
      LDR
      501    _afoo
             _b1
             _cbar
             _bnew subfield's value on the condition's field
      502    _bthis is the first 'b' value of another new 502
             _bthis is the 2nd 'b' value of this another new 502
      502    _athis is the subfield's value of a new 502 field
      600    _afirst 'a' subfield of this new 600 field
             _asecond 'a' subfield of this new 600 field
             _bthe 600b value
  ```

- •

  be careful: You need to use lists to create several subfields with the same name in a field:

  ```
      # does not work:
      create :
       f502b : value
       f502b : value
  ```

*update*

- •

  This action allows you to update **existing** fields. This action updates all the specified subfields of all specified fields (if the specified field is a condition's field, it will be the only one to be updated)

- •

  Syntax:

  ```
      # basic:
      update :
       <subfield name> : <value>

      # advanced:
      update :
       <subfield name> : <value>
       <subfield name> : <value>
       <field name> :
        <subfield name> : <value>
        <subfield name> : <value>
  ```

- •

  Example:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f502a eq "second a"
      update :
       b : updated value of all 'b' subfields in the condition field
       f502c : updated value of all 'c' subfields into all '502' fields
       f501 :
        a : updated value of all 'a' subfields into all '501' fields
        b : $f502a is the 502a condition's field's value
  ```

  result (with `"$record->as_formatted"`):

  ```
      --init record--
      LDR
      501    _afoo
             _b1
             _cbar
      502    _afirst a
             _asecond a
             _bbbb
             _cccc1
             _cccc2
      502    _apoto
      502    _btruc
             _cbidule
      --transformed record--
      LDR
      501    _aupdated value of all 'a' subfields into all '501' fields
             _bsecond a is the 502a condition's field's value
             _cbar
      502    _afirst a
             _asecond a
             _bupdated value of all 'b' subfields in the condition field
             _cupdated value of all 'c' subfields into all '502' fields
             _cupdated value of all 'c' subfields into all '502' fields
      502    _apoto
      502    _btruc
             _cupdated value of all 'c' subfields into all '502' fields
  ```

*updatefirst*

- •

  This action is **identical to the update**, except that it updates only the **first** subfield of the specified fields

- •

  **Syntax**: except for the action's name, it's the **same than the update**'s syntax

- •

  Example:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f502a eq "second a"
      updatefirst :
       b : updated value of first 'b' subfields in the condition's field
       f502c : updated value of first 'c' subfields into all '502' fields
       f501 :
        a : updated value of first 'a' subfields into all '501' fields
        b : $f502a is the value of 502a conditionnal field
  ```

  result (with `"$record->as_formatted"`):

  ```
      --init record--
      LDR
      501    _afoo
             _b1
             _cbar
      502    _afirst a
             _asecond a
             _bbbb
             _cccc1
             _cccc2
      502    _apoto
      502    _btruc
             _cbidule
      --transformed record--
      LDR
      501    _aupdated value of first 'a' subfields into all '501' fields
             _bsecond a is the value of 502a conditionnal field
             _cbar
      502    _afirst a
             _asecond a
             _bupdated value of first 'b' subfields in the condition's field
             _cupdated value of first 'c' subfields into all '502' fields
             _cccc2
      502    _apoto
      502    _btruc
             _cupdated value of first 'c' subfields into all '502' fields
  ```

*forceupdate and forceupdatefirst*

- •

  If the specified **subfields exist**: these actions are identical to the **update** and the updatefirst actions

- •

  If the specified **subfields doesn't exist**: these actions are identical to the **create** action

- •

  **Syntax**: except for the action's name, it's the **same than the update**'s syntax

- •

  Example:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f502a eq "second a"
      forceupdate :
       b : 'b' subfield's value in the condition's field
       f502c : '502c' value's
       f503 :
        a : '503a' value's
        b : $f502a is the 502a condition's value
  ```

  result (with `"$record->as_formatted"`):

  ```

*delete*

- •

  As the name suggests, this action allows you to delete fields and subfields.

- •

  Syntax:

  ```
      # basic:
      delete : <field or subfield name>

      # advanced:
      delete :
       - <field or subfield name>
       - <field or subfield name>
  ```

- •

  Example:

  ```

*duplicatefield*

- •

  As the name suggests, this action allows you to duplicate entire fields.

- •

  Syntax:

  ```
      # basic:
      duplicatefield : <field name> > <field name>

      # advanced:
      duplicatefield :
       - <field name> > <field name>
       - <field name> > <field name>
  ```

- •

  Example:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f008_ eq "controlfield_contentb"
      duplicatefield : $f008 > f007
      ---
      condition : $f501a eq "bar"
      duplicatefield : $f501 > f400
      ---
      condition : $f501a eq "foo"
      duplicatefield :
       - f501 > f401
       - $f501 > f402
       - f005 > f006
  ```

  result (with `"$record->as_formatted"`):

  ```
      --init record--
      LDR
      005     controlfield_content2
      005     controlfield_content1

             _bbb1
             _bbb2
  ```

*execute*

- •

  This action allows you to to define Perl code that will be run with `"eval"`

  You can run functions written directly in the YAML ( for details on writing perl subs in the YAML, refer to next chapter: Use Perl functions and LookUp Tables ).

- •

  Syntax:

  ```
      # basic:
      execute : <perl code>

      # advanced:
      execute :
       - <perl code>
       - <perl code>
  ```

- •

  Example:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f501a eq "bar"
      execute :
       - warn("f501a eq $f501a")
       - warn("barbar")
      ---
      -
       condition : $f501a eq "foo"
       execute : \&warnfoo("f501a eq $f501a")
      -
       subs : >
          sub warnfoo { my $string = shift;warn $string; }
  ```

  result (in stderr):

  ```
      f501a eq bar at (eval 30) line 6, <$yamls> line 1.
      barbar at (eval 30) line 7, <$yamls> line 1.
      f501a eq foo at (eval 33) line 2, <$yamls> line 1.
  ```

### Use Perl functions and LookUp Tables

You can use Perl functions (**subs**) and lookup tables (**LUT**) to define with greater flexibility values that will be created or updated by the actions: create, forceupdate, forceupdatefirst, update and updatefirst.

These functions (and lookup tables) can be **written in a rule** (in this case they can be used only by this rule) **or after the last rule** ( after the last ---, can be used in all rules: **global\_subs** and **global\_LUT** ).

*Variables*

Four types of variables can be used:

`$this`, and condition's elements

- •

  variables pointing on the condition's subfield's values are those we have already seen in Chapter 'Run actions only on condition fields' (e.g. **$f110c**)

- •

  **$this**: this is the variable to use to pointing to the **value of current subfield**. `$this` can also be used outside a sub or a LUT.

  Example (N.B.: sub 'fromo2e' converts 'o' to 'e'):

  ```
      ---
      -
       condition : $f501a eq "foo"
       create :
        c : \&fromo2e("$f501a")
       update :
        d : this 501d value's is $this
        b : \&fromo2e("$this")
      -
       subs: >
          sub fromo2e { my $string=shift; $string =~ s/o/e/g; $string; }
  ```

  result (with `"$record->as_formatted"`):

  ```
      --init record--
      LDR
      501    _afoo
             _bboo
             _ddoo
      --transformed record--
      LDR
      501    _afoo
             _bbee
             _d this 501d value's is doo
             _cfee
  ```

`$mth`

**$mth** is the optional hashref add as third optional argument. It can be used in writing (into subs and global\_subs) and reading. This allows interaction with the script that calls MARC::Transform.

- •

  Syntaxe: **$$mth{foo}**

- •

  Example in a perl script :

  ```
      my $record = MARC::Record->new();
      $record->leader('optional leader');
      print "--init record--\n". $record->as_formatted;
      my %mth;
      $mth{"inc"}=1;
      $mth{"var"}="a string";
      my $yaml = '
      ---
      condition : $$mth{"var"} eq "a string"
      forceupdate :
       f500a : $$mth{"var"}
      ---
      -
       execute : \&testa()
      -
       subs: >
          sub testa { $$mth{"inc"}++; }
      ---
      forceupdate :
       f600a : \&testb()
      ---
      global_subs: >
          sub testb { $$mth{"inc"}++;$$mth{"inc"}; }
      ';
      $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,$yaml,\%mth);
      print "\n--transformed record-- ".$mth{"inc"}." : \n". $record->as_formatted ."\n";
  ```

  result :

  ```
      --init record--
      LDR optional leader
      --transformed record-- 3 :
      LDR optional leader
      500    _aa string
      600    _a3
  ```

`$record`

**$record** is the current MARC::Record object.

*LUT*

If a value has no match in a LookUp Table, it isn't modified. (unless you have defined a default value with `"_default_value_"` ).

If you want to use more than one LookUp Table in a rule, you must use a global\_LUT because it differentiates tables with titles.

$$mth{"\_defaultLUT\_to\_mth\_"}

- •

  **Note:** if you call MARC::Transform with the third parameter, the module filled its key named `"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"` in case you want to keep, in the calling script, track of the values and types (named `"lookuptableforthis"` for non-global's LUT) unmatched. `$$mth{"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"}` is cleared each time MARC::Transform-\>new is called.

- •

  If we recall the above example with :

  ```
      my %mth;
      $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,$yaml,\%mth);
      print $mth{"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"}->{"cities"}[0];
      print "\n".Data::Dumper::Dumper $mth{"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"};
  ```

  will return in stdout :

  ```
      foo
      $VAR1 = {
                'numbers' => [
                               '3'
                             ],
                'cities' => [
                              'foo'
                            ]
              };
  ```

  try this if you want to get the content of `$mth`{"\_defaultLUT\_to\_mth\_"} instead of the line containing Data::Dumper::Dumper :

  ```
      foreach my $k (keys(%{$mth{"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"}}))
      {
          foreach my $value(@{$mth{"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"}->{"$k"}})
          { print "$k : $value \n"; }
      }
  ```

## Latest tips and a big YAML example's

- •

  If your script return an error like "YAML Error: Stream does not end with newline character", it's easy to fix. If you define your YAML into a variable, it must end with a new blank line. If you give a path to your YAML file, it is probably not good : try with an absolute path.

- •

  Restriction: the specific case of double-quotes (") and dollar signs ($):

  In YAML, these characters are interpreted differently. To use them in string context, you will need to replace them in YAML by `"#_dbquote_#"` (for ") and `"#_dollars_#"` (for $):

  . Example:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f501a eq "I want #_dbquote_##_dollars_##_dbquote_#"
      create :
       f604a : "#_dbquote_#$f501a#_dbquote_# contain a #_dollars_# sign"
  ```

  . result (with `"$record->as_formatted"` ):

  ```
      --init record--
      LDR
      501    _aI want "$"
      --transformed record--
      LDR
      501    _aI want "$"
      604    _a"I want "$"" contain a $ sign
  ```

- •

  Restriction: You can test if a field or subfield exists, but it is inadvisable to test its absence.

- •

  Example: feel free to copy the examples in this documentation. Be aware that I have added four space characters at the beginning of each example's line to make them better displayed by the POD interpreter. If you copy / paste them into your YAML configuration file, Be sure to remove the first four characters of each line (e.g. with vim, `":%s/^\s\s\s\s//g"` ).

- •

  This yaml was called like this: `"my %mth; $mth{"var"}="a string"; $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,$yaml,\%mth);"`

## - NOM

MARC::Transform - Module Perl pour transformer une notice MARC en utilisant un fichier de configuration YAML

## - VERSION

Version 0.003009

## - SYNOPSIS

**Perl script:**

```
    use MARC::Transform;
    # Pour ce synopsis, nous creons une petite notice:
    my $record = MARC::Record->new();
    $record->insert_fields_ordered( MARC::Field->new(
                                    '501', '', '',
                                    'a' => 'foo',
                                    'b' => '1',
                                    'c' => 'bar',
                                    'd' => 'bor' ) );
    print "--notice d'origine--\n". $record->as_formatted ."\n";
    # Nous transformons notre notice avec notre fichier de
    # configuration YAML avec son chemin absolu ( ou
    # relatif si il est appele depuis le bon endroit) :
    $record = MARC::Transform->new ( $record, "/path/conf.yaml" );
    # Vous pouvez aussi ecrire votre YAML dans une variable:
    my $yaml="delete : f501d\n";
    # et l'utiliser pour transformer la notice:
    $record = MARC::Transform->new ( $record, $yaml );
    print "\n--notice transformee--\n". $record->as_formatted ."\n";
```

**conf.yaml:**

```
    ---
    condition : $f501a eq "foo"
    create :
     f502a : New 502a subfield's value
    update :
      $f501b : \&LUT("$this")
    LUT :
     1 : first
     2 : second value in this LUT (LookUp Table)
    ---
    delete : f501c
```

**Resultat** (avec `"$record->as_formatted"`):

```
    --notice d'origine--
    LDR
    501    _afoo
           _b1
           _cbar
           _dbor

    --notice transformee--
    LDR
    501    _afoo
           _bfirst
    502    _aNew 502a subfield's value
```

## - DESCRIPTION

C'est un module Perl pour transformer une notice MARC en utilisant un fichier de configuration YAML.

Il permet de **creer** , **mettre a jour** , **supprimer** , **dupliquer** les champs et les sous-champs d'une notice. Vous pouvez aussi utiliser des **scripts** et des **tables de correspondance**. Vous pouvez preciser des **conditions** pour executer ces actions.

Toutes les conditions, actions, fonctions et tables de correspondance sont **definies dans le YAML**.

MARC::Transform utilise MARC::Record.

## - METHODE

### - new()

```
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record, "/path/conf.yaml" );
```

C'est la seule methode que vous utiliserez. Elle prend un objet MARC::Record et le chemin vers un YAML comme arguments. Vous pouvez aussi ecrire votre YAML dans une variable et l'utiliser pour transformer la notice comme ceci :

```
    my $yaml="delete : f501d\n";
    $record = MARC::Transform->new ( $record, $yaml );
```

*- Reference a un hash optionnel*

Comme nous allons le voir plus en detail plus bas, il est possible d'ajouter comme troisieme argument une reference a un hash (nomme `$mth` dans le yaml).

```
    my $record = MARC::Record->new(); my $hashref = {'var' => 'foo'};
    my $yaml = 'create :
     f500a : $$mth{"var"}
    ';
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,$yaml,$hashref);
    #la valeur du nouveau sous-champ 500$a est "foo"
```

*- Mode verbeux*

Chaque regle du YAML (voir les bases plus bas pour comprendre ce qu'est une regle) genere un script qui est evalue, dans la notice, pour chaque champ et sous-champ specifie dans la condition (si il y a une condition). En ajoutant un quatrieme argument optionnel **1** a la methode, elle affiche le script genere. Cela peut etre utile pour comprendre ce qu'il se passe:

```
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,"/path/conf.yaml",0,1);
```

*- Definir l'encodage du fichier de configuration YAML*

Vous pouvez forcer l'ouverture du fichier de configuration YAML dans un encodage specifique en le precisant dans le cinquieme argument facultatif comme ceci (pour un fichier UTF-8)

```
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,"/path/conf.yaml",0,0,"UTF-8");
```

ou comme ceci (pour un fichier Latin1)

```
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,"/path/conf.yaml",0,0,"Latin1");
```

## - YAML

### - Bases

\- **Le YAML est divise en regle** (separees par --- ), chaque regle est executee l'une apres l'autre, les regles sans condition sont toujours executees:

```
    ---
    condition : $f501a eq "foo"
    create :
     f600a : new field value
    ---
    delete : f501c
    ---
```

\- **les conditions sont ecrites en perl**, ce qui permet une grande flexibilite. Elles doivent etre definies avec `"condition : "`

```
    condition : ($f501a=~/foo/ and $f503a=~/bar/) or ($f102a eq "bib")
    # si un 501$a et un 503$a contiennent foo et bar, ou si un 102$a = bib
```

\- Les conditions testent les notices **champ par champ** (uniquement sur les champs definis dans la condition)

Cela signifie, par exemple, que si nous avons plusieurs champs '501' dans la notice, si notre condition est `"$f501a eq "foo" and $f501b eq "bar""`, cette condition sera vrai uniquement si un champ '501' a un sous-champ 'a' = "foo" ET un sous-champ 'b' = 'bar' (elle sera fausse si il y a un champ '501' avec un sous-champ 'a' = "foo" et UN AUTRE champ '501' avec un sous-champ 'b' = "bar").

\- Il est possible de lancer plusieurs actions differentes dans une seule regle:

```
    ---
    condition : $f501a eq "foo"
    create :
     f600a : new field value
    delete : f501c
    ---
```

\- L'ordre dans lequel les actions sont ecrites n'a pas d'importance. Les actions seront toujours executee dans l'ordre suivant:

- •

  create

- •

  duplicatefield

- •

  forceupdate

- •

  forceupdatefirst

- •

  update

- •

  updatefirst

- •

  execute

- •

  delete

\- **Chaque regle peut etre divisee en sous-regles** (separees par - ) similaires a un 'if,elsif' ou un script 'switch,case'. Si la condition de la premiere sous-regle est fausse, la condition de la sous-regle suivante est testee. Lorsque la condition d'une sous-regle est vraie (ou si un sous-regle n'a pas de condition), les sous-regles suivantes ne sont pas lues.

```
    ---
    -
     condition : $f501a eq "foo"
     create :
      f502a : value if foo
    -
     condition : $f501a eq "bar"
     create :
      f502a : value elsif bar
    -
     create :
      f502a : value else
    ---
    # Si une sous-regle n'a pas de condition, elle sera consideree
    # comme un 'else' (les sous-regles suivantes ne seront pas lues)
```

\- Il n'est pas permis de definir plus d'une action similaire dans une seule (sous-)regle. Cependant, il reste possible d'executer une action similaire plusieurs fois dans une seule regle (se referer a la syntaxe specifique a chaque action pour voir comment faire cela):

.   Cela n'est **pas** permis:

```
    ---
    delete : f501b
    delete : f501c
```

.   cela fonctionne:

```
    ---
    delete :
     - f501b
     - f501c
```

*- un petit script pour tester vos regles*

\- **Il est fortement recommende de tester chaque regle sur une notice de test avant de l'utiliser sur un large lot de notices**. Vous pouvez creer un script (par exemple `"test.pl"`) avec le contenu ci-dessous (que vous adapterez pour tester vos regles) et le lancer avec `"perl ./test.pl"` :

```
    #!/usr/bin/perl
    use MARC::Transform;
    my $record = MARC::Record->new();
    $record->leader('optional leader');
    $record->insert_fields_ordered( MARC::Field->new('005', 'controlfield_content'));
    $record->insert_fields_ordered( MARC::Field->new('501', '', '', 'a' => 'foo', 'b' => 'bar') );
    print "\n--init record--\n". $record->as_formatted ."\n";
    my $yaml='---
    condition : $f501a eq "foo"
    create :
     f502a : condition is true
    ';
    $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,$yaml);
    print "\n--transformed record--\n". $record->as_formatted ."\n";
```

### - Convention de nommage des champs et des sous-champs

*- Dans les actions*

\- Les noms des champs et des sous-champs sont tres importants:

- •

  Ils doivent commencer par la lettre **f** suivi des **3 chiffres** du nom du champ (par exemple f099), suivi, pour les sous-champs, par leur **lettre ou chiffre** (par exemple **f501b**).

- •

  Les noms des champs de controle commencent par la lettre **f** suivi par **3 chiffres inferieur a 010** suivi par **underscore** (par exemple **f005\_**).

- •

  **Les indicateurs** doivent commencer par la lettre **i**, suivi des **3 chiffres** du nom du champ suivi par la position de l'indicateur(**1 or 2**) (par exemple **i0991**).

- •

  Dans les actions, vous pouvez definir **un sous-champ directement** (ou un indicateur avec i1 ou i2). Selon le contexte, il se refere au champ de la condition (si nous n'avons defini qu'un seul champ a tester dans la condition), ou au champ en cours de traitement dans l'action:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f501a eq "foo"
      create :
       b : new 'b' subfield's value in unique condition's field (501)
       f600 :
        i1 : 1
        a : new subfield (a) in this new 600 field
      ---
  ```

*- Dans les conditions*

- •

  Dans les conditions la convention de nommage des champs et des sous-champs suit les **memes regles que les actions**, mais ils doivent etre **precedes du symbole dollar $** (par exemple `$f110c` pour un sous-champ ou `$i0991` pour un indicateur).

- •

  Le leader de la notice peut etre defini avec **$ldr**.

- •

  Il est possible de tester la valeur d'un seul caractere dans les sous-champs ou le leader. Pour faire cela, vous devez ajouter la **position de ce caractere a partir de 0 et jusqu'a 99**:

  ```
      #pour tester le 3e caractere du leader et le 12e dans le 501$a:
      condition : $ldr2 eq "t" and $f501a11 eq "z"
  ```

*- Lancer des actions uniquement sur les champs de la condition*

Nous avons deja vu que pour se referer au champ de la condition dans les actions, il est possible de definir les sous-champs directement. Cela fonctionne uniquement si nous avons definis seulement un champ a tester dans la condition. Si nous avons plus d'un champ dans la condition, pour s'y referer, leurs **noms doivent aussi commencer par $** (cela fonctionne egalement avec un champ unique dans la condition).

Par exemple, si vous testez la valeur du `$f501a` dans la condition:

\- cela va supprimer les sous-champs 'c' uniquement dans le champ '501' qui est vrai dans la condition:

```
    condition : $f501a eq "foo" and defined $f501b
    delete : $f501c
```

\- cela va supprimer les sous-champs 'c' dans tous les champs '501':

```
    condition : $f501a eq "foo" and defined $f501b
    delete : f501c
```

\- cela va creer un nouveau champ '701' avec un sous-champ 'c' contenant la valeur du sous-champ 501$a defini dans la condition:

```
    condition : defined $f501a
    create :
     f701c : $f501a
```

**ATTENTION**: Pour avoir **la valeur** des sous-champs des champs de la condition, ces sous-champs doivent etre definis dans la condition:

\- cela ne fonctionne **pas**:

```
    condition : $f501a eq "foo"
    create :
     f701a : $f501c
```

\- cela fonctionne (cree un nouveau champ '701' avec un sous-champ 'a' contenant la valeur du sous-champ 501$c de la condition):

```
    condition : $f501a eq "foo" and defined $f501c
    create :
     f701a : $f501c
```

\- Cette restriction est vrai uniquement pour les valeurs des sous-champs mais pas pour specifier les champs affectes par une action : l'exemple ci-dessous va creer un nouveau sous-champ 'c' **dans un champ defini dans la condition**.

```
    condition : $f501a eq "foo" and $f110a == 2
    create :
     $f501c : new subfield value
    # Si il y a de multiples champs '501', seuls ceux ayant un
    # sous-champ 'a'='foo' auront un nouveau sous-champ 'c' cree
```

### - Actions

*- create*

- •

  Comme son nom l'indique, cette action vous permet de creer de nouveaux champs et sous-champs.

- •

  Syntaxe:

  ```
      # basique:
      create :
       <nom de sous-champ> : <valeur>

      # pour creer deux sous-champs (dans un champ) avec le meme nom:
      create :
       <nom de sous-champ> :
        - <valeur>
        - <valeur>

      # avancee:
      create :
       <nom de champ> :
        <nom de sous-champ> :
         - <valeur>
         - <valeur>
        <nom de sous-champ> : <valeur>
  ```

- •

  Exemple:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f501a eq "foo"
      create :
       b : new subfield's value on the condition's field
       f502a : this is the subfield's value of a new 502 field
       f502b :
        - this is the first 'b' value of another new 502
        - this is the 2nd 'b' value of this another new 502
       f600 :
        a :
         - first 'a' subfield of this new 600 field
         - second 'a' subfield of this new 600 field
        b : the 600b value
  ```

  resultat (avec `"$record->as_formatted"`):

  ```
      --notice d'origine--
      LDR
      501    _afoo
             _b1
             _cbar

      LDR
      501    _afoo
             _b1
             _cbar
             _bnew subfield's value on the condition's field
      502    _bthis is the first 'b' value of another new 502
             _bthis is the 2nd 'b' value of this another new 502
      502    _athis is the subfield's value of a new 502 field
      600    _afirst 'a' subfield of this new 600 field
             _asecond 'a' subfield of this new 600 field
             _bthe 600b value
  ```

- •

  faites attention: vous devez utilisez des listes pour creer plusieurs sous-champs avec le meme nom dans un champ:

  ```
      # ne fonctionne pas:
      create :
       f502b : value
       f502b : value
  ```

*- update*

- •

  Cette action vous permet de mettre a jour les champs **existants**. Cette action met a jour tous les sous-champs specifies de tous les champs specifies (si le champ specifie est un champ de la condition, il sera le seul a etre mis a jour )

- •

  Syntaxe:

  ```
      # basique:
      update :
       <nom de sous-champ> : <valeur>

      # avancee:
      update :
       <nom de sous-champ> : <valeur>
       <nom de sous-champ> : <valeur>
       <nom de champ> :
        <nom de sous-champ> : <valeur>
        <nom de sous-champ> : <valeur>
  ```

- •

  Exemple:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f502a eq "second a"
      update :
       b : updated value of all 'b' subfields in the condition field
       f502c : updated value of all 'c' subfields into all '502' fields
       f501 :
        a : updated value of all 'a' subfields into all '501' fields
        b : $f502a is the 502a condition's field's value
  ```

             _cupdated value of all 'c' subfields into all '502' fields
  ```

*- updatefirst*

- •

  Cette action est **identique a update**, excepte qu'elle met a jour seulement le **premier** sous-champ des champs specifies

- •

  **Syntaxe**: excepte pour le nom de l'action, c'est la **meme que la syntaxe de update**

- •

  Exemple:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f502a eq "second a"
      updatefirst :
       b : updated value of first 'b' subfields in the condition's field
       f502c : updated value of first 'c' subfields into all '502' fields
       f501 :
        a : updated value of first 'a' subfields into all '501' fields
        b : $f502a is the value of 502a conditionnal field

*- execute*

- •

  Cette action vous permet de definir du code Perl qui sera execute avec `"eval"`

  Vous pouvez executer des fonctions ecrites directement dans le YAML ( pour des details sur l'ecriture de subs perl dans le YAML, referez vous au chapitre suivant: Utiliser des fonctions Perl et des tables des correspondance)

- •

  Syntaxe:

  ```
      # basique:
      execute : <code perl>

      # avancee:
      execute :
       - <code perl>
       - <code perl>
  ```

- •

  Exemple:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f501a eq "bar"
      execute :
       - warn("f501a eq $f501a")
       - warn("barbar")
      ---
      -
       condition : $f501a eq "foo"
       execute : \&warnfoo("f501a eq $f501a")
      -
       subs : >
          sub warnfoo { my $string = shift;warn $string; }
  ```

  resultat (dans stderr):

  ```
      f501a eq bar at (eval 30) line 6, <$yamls> line 1.
      barbar at (eval 30) line 7, <$yamls> line 1.
      f501a eq foo at (eval 33) line 2, <$yamls> line 1.
  ```

### - Utiliser des fonctions Perl et des tables des correspondance

Vous pouvez utiliser des fonctions Perl (**subs**) et des tables de correspondance (**LUT** pour LookUp Tables) pour definir avec une plus grande flexibilite les valeurs qui vont etre creees ou mises a jour avec les actions: create, forceupdate, forceupdatefirst, update and updatefirst.

Ces fonctions (et tables des correspondance) peuvent etre **ecrites dans une regle** (dans ce cas elles ne peuvent etre utilisee que par cette regle) **ou apres la derniere regle** ( apres le dernier ---, elles peuvent alors etre utilisees dans toutes les regles: **global\_subs** et **global\_LUT** ).

*- Variables*

Quatre types de variables peuvent etre utilises:

\- `$this`, et les elements de la condition

- •

  les variables pointant sur la valeur des sous-champs de la condition sont celles que nous avons deja vu dans le chapitre 'Lancer des actions uniquement sur les champs de la condition' (par exemple **$f110c**)

- •

  **$this**: c'est la variable a utiliser pour pointer sur la **valeur du sous-champ en cours**. `$this` peut aussi etre utilisee dans une sub ou une LUT.

  Exemple (N.B.: la sub 'fromo2e' convertit les 'o' en 'e'):

  ```
      ---
      -
       condition : $f501a eq "foo"
       create :
        c : \&fromo2e("$f501a")
       update :
        d : this 501d value's is $this
        b : \&fromo2e("$this")
      -
       subs: >
          sub fromo2e { my $string=shift; $string =~ s/o/e/g; $string; }
  ```

  resultat (avec `"$record->as_formatted"`):

  ```
      --notice d'origine--
      LDR
      501    _afoo
             _bboo
             _ddoo
      --notice transformee--
      LDR
      501    _afoo
             _bbee
             _d this 501d value's is doo
             _cfee
  ```

\- `$mth`

**$mth** est l'eventuel hashref passe comme troisieme argument. Il est utilisable en ecriture (dans les subs et les global\_subs) et en lecture. Cela permet d'interagir avec le script qui appelle MARC::Transform.

- •

  Syntaxe: **$$mth{foo}**

- •

  Exemple dans un script perl :

  ```
      my $record = MARC::Record->new();
      $record->leader('optional leader');
      print "--init record--\n". $record->as_formatted;
      my %mth;
      $mth{"inc"}=1;
      $mth{"var"}="a string";
      my $yaml = '
      ---
      condition : $$mth{"var"} eq "a string"
      forceupdate :
       f500a : $$mth{"var"}
      ---
      -
       execute : \&testa()
      -
       subs: >
          sub testa { $$mth{"inc"}++; }
      ---
      forceupdate :
       f600a : \&testb()
      ---
      global_subs: >
          sub testb { $$mth{"inc"}++;$$mth{"inc"}; }
      ';
      $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,$yaml,\%mth);
      print "\n--transformed record-- ".$mth{"inc"}." : \n". $record->as_formatted ."\n";
  ```

  resultat :

  ```
      --init record--
      LDR optional leader
      --transformed record-- 3 :
      LDR optional leader
      500    _aa string
      600    _a3
  ```

\- `$record`

**$record** est l'objet MARC::Record en cours de traitement.

*- LUT*

Si une valeur n'a pas de correspondance dans une table de correspondance, elle n'est pas modifiee (a moins que vous n'ayez definit une valeur par defaut avec `"_default_value_"` ).

Si vous voulez utiliser plus d'une table de correspondance dans une regle, vous devez utiliser une global\_LUT car elle differencie les tables avec des titres.

  **NB :** si vous appelez MARC::Transform avec le troisieme parametre, le module en rempli la cle nommee `"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"` au cas ou vous souhaiteriez conserver, dans le script d'appel, une trace des valeurs et types (nomme `"lookuptableforthis"` pour les LUT non globales) sans correspondance. `$$mth{"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"}` est videe a chaque fois que MARC::Transform-\>new est appele.

- •

  Si nous rappellons l'exemple ci-dessus avec :

  ```
      my %mth;
      $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,$yaml,\%mth);
      print $mth{"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"}->{"cities"}[0];
      print "\n".Data::Dumper::Dumper $mth{"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"};
  ```

  cela renverra sur la sortie standard :

  ```
      foo
      $VAR1 = {
                'numbers' => [
                               '3'

  essayez ceci si vous souhaitez recuperer le contenu de `$mth`{"\_defaultLUT\_to\_mth\_"} a la place de la ligne contenant Data::Dumper::Dumper :

  ```
      foreach my $k (keys(%{$mth{"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"}}))
      {
          foreach my $value(@{$mth{"_defaultLUT_to_mth_"}->{"$k"}})
          { print "$k : $value \n"; }
      }
  ```

## - Dernieres astuces et un gros exemple de YAML

- •

  Si votre script renvoie une erreur du type "YAML Error: Stream does not end with newline character", c'est simple a corriger. Si vous avez defini votre YAML dans une variable, elle doit se terminer par une nouvelle ligne vide. Si vous avez donner un chemin vers votre fichier, il n'est vraisemblablement pas bon : essayez avec un chemin absolu.

- •

  Restriction: le cas specifique des guillemets doubles (") et du symbole dollar ($):

  Dans le YAML, ces caracteres sont interpretes differemment. Pour les utiliser dans un contexte de chaine de caractere, vous devrez les remplacer  dans le YAML par `"#_dbquote_#"` (pour ") et `"#_dollars_#"` (pour $):

  . Exemple:

  ```
      ---
      condition : $f501a eq "I want #_dbquote_##_dollars_##_dbquote_#"
      create :
       f604a : "#_dbquote_#$f501a#_dbquote_# contain a #_dollars_# sign"
  ```

  . resultat (avec `"$record->as_formatted"` ):

  ```
      --notice d'origine--
      LDR
      501    _aI want "$"
      --notice transformee--
      LDR
      501    _aI want "$"
      604    _a"I want "$"" contain a $ sign
  ```

- •

  Restriction: Vous pouvez tester si un champ ou sous-champ existe, mais il est deconseille de tester son absence.

- •

  Exemple: n'hesitez pas a copier les exemples de cette documentation. Faite attention car j'ai ajoute quatre caracteres espace au debut de chaque ligne des exemples pour qu'ils soient mieux affiches par l'interpreteur POD. Si vous les copiez / collez dans votre fichier de configuration YAML, n'oubliez pas de supprimer les quatres premier caracteres de chaque ligne (par exemple avec vim, `":%s/^\s\s\s\s//g"` ).

  Ce yaml a ete appelle comme ceci: `"my %mth; $mth{"var"}="a string"; $record = MARC::Transform->new($record,$yaml,\%mth);"`
