# NAME s1kd-fmgen - Generate front matter data module contents # SYNOPSIS s1kd-fmgen [-D ] [-F ] [-I ] [-P ] [-p = ...] [-t ] [-x ] [-,.flqvh?] [...] # DESCRIPTION The *s1kd-fmgen* tool generates the content section for front matter data modules from either a standard publication module, or the combined format of the s1kd-flatten(1) tool. Some front matter types require the use of the combined format, particularly those that list information not directly found in the publication module, such as the highlights (HIGH) type. # OPTIONS - \-,, --dump-fmtypes-xml Dump the built-in `.fmtypes` XML format. - \-., --dump-fmtypes Dump the built-in `.fmtypes` simple text format. - \-D, --dump-xsl \ Dump the built-in XSLT used to generate the specified type of front matter. - \-F, --fmtypes \ Specify a custom `.fmtypes` file. - \-f, --overwrite Overwrite the specified front matter data module files after generating their content. - \-h, -?, --help Show usage message. - \-I, --date \ Set the issue date of the generated front matter data modules. This can be a specific date in the form of "YYYY-MM-DD", "-" for the current date, or "pm" to use the issue date of the publication module. - \-l, --list Treat input (stdin or arguments) as lists of front matter data modules to generate content for, rather than data modules themselves. If reading list from stdin, the -P option must be used to specify the publication module. - \-P, --pm \ Publication module or s1kd-flatten(1) PM format file to generate contents from. If none is specified, the tool will read from stdin. - \-p, --param \=\ Pass a parameter to the XSLT stylesheets used to generate the front matter content. Multiple parameters can be specified by using this option multiple times. The following parameters are automatically supplied to any stylesheet, and therefore their names should be considered reserved: - `"type"` - The front matter type name (e.g., HIGH) that was matched in the `.fmtypes` file or specified by the user with the -t option. - \-q, --quiet Quiet mode. Do not print errors. - \-t, --type \ Generate content for this type of front matter. Supported types are: - HIGH - Highlights - LOA - List of abbreviations - LOASD - List of applicable specifications and documentation - LOEDM - List of effective data modules - LOI - List of illustrations - LOS - List of symbols - LOT - List of terms - LOTBL - List of tables - TOC - Table of contents - TP - Title page - \-v, --verbose Verbose output. Specify multiple times to increase the verbosity. - \-x, --xsl \ Use the specified XSLT script to generate the front matter contents instead of the built-in XSLT or the user-configured XSLT from the `.fmtypes` file. - \--version Show version information. - \... Front matter data modules to generate content for. If no front matter type can be determined for a data module, it will be ignored. In addition, the following options allow configuration of the XML parser: - \--dtdload Load the external DTD. - \--huge Remove any internal arbitrary parser limits. - \--net Allow network access to load external DTD and entities. - \--noent Resolve entities. - \--parser-errors Emit errors from parser. - \--parser-warnings Emit warnings from parser. - \--xinclude Do XInclude processing. - \--xml-catalog \ Use an XML catalog when resolving entities. Multiple catalogs may be loaded by specifying this option multiple times. ## `.fmtypes` file This file specifies a list of info codes to associate with a particular type of front matter. Optionally, a path to an XSLT script can be given for each info code, which will be used to generate the front matter instead of the built-in XSLT. The path to an XSLT script will be interpreted relative to the location of the `.fmtypes` file (typically, the top directory of the CSDB). The -D option can be used to dump the built-in XSLT for a type of front matter as a starting point for a custom script. Optionally, in the XML format, the attribute `ignoreDel` may be specified to control whether deleted data modules and elements are ignored when generating front matter contents. These are data modules with an issue type of "`deleted`" and elements with a change type of "`delete`". A value of "`yes`" means deleted content will not be included, while "`no`" means it will. If this attribute is not specified, then a default value will be used based on the type of front matter. The following types will ignore deleted content by default: - LOA - LOASD - LOI - LOS - LOTBL - TOC - TP By default, the program will search for a file named `.fmtypes` in the current directory and parent directories, but any file can be specified using the -F option. Example of simple text format: 001 TP 005 LOA 006 LOT 007 LOS 009 TOC 00A LOA 00S LOEDM 00U HIGH fm/high.xsl 00V LOASD 00Z LOTBL Example of XML format: The info code of each entry in the `.fmtypes` file may also include an info code variant. This allows different transformations to be used based on the variant: In the example above, a highlights data module (00U) with info code variant A will use an XSL transformation that creates a simple highlights, while a highlights data module with info code variant B will use an XSL transformation that creates a highlights with update instructions. All other variants will use the built-in XSLT. Entries are chosen in the order they are listed in the `.fmtypes` file. An info code which does not specify a variant matches all possible variants. ## Optional title page elements When re-generating the front matter content for a title page data module, optional elements which cannot be derived from the publication module (such as the product illustration or bar code) will be copied from the source data module when updating it. ## Multi-pass transforms Rather than a literal XSLT file, the path specified for the `xsl` attribute in the `.fmtypes` file or the -x (--xsl) option may be an XProc file which contains a pipeline with multiple stylesheets. This allows for multi-pass transformations.
Only a small subset of XProc is supported at this time.
Example: ... # EXIT STATUS - 0 No errors. - 1 The date specified with -I is invalid. - 2 No front matter types were specified. - 3 An unknown front matter type was specified. - 4 The resulting front matter content could not be merged in to a data module. - 5 The stylesheet specified for a type of front matter was invalid. # EXAMPLE Generate the content for a title page front matter data module and overwrite the file: $ s1kd-flatten PMC-EX-12345-00001-00_001-00_EN-CA.XML | > s1kd-fmgen -f DMC-EX-A-00-00-00-00A-001A-D_001-00_EN-CA.XML
