Cadmus GISARC backend core

Cadmus GISARC Core

This is the core for the Cadmus GISARC project.

Inscriptions

Inscription ID should be equal to ISiciliy ID.

General:

• external IDs*: all the IDs linked to the inscription (ISicily and eventually others).
• metadata: general purpose metadata.
• location*: geographic location. This is used to pinpoint the inscription on a map. The link to a site is managed via the pin links part.
• pin links: link to the site containing the inscription, if any. The site must be a site item with a metadata part having a metadatum named hid equal to the human-friendly ID we want to use to identify it in order to link it to inscriptions.
• date*
• epigraphic support
• epigraphic writing

Classification:

• categories*: general thematic tags from some taxonomy.
• index keywords: multiple-language keywords which can be grouped under several sections ("indexes").

Comment:

• comment: generic comment.
• note: free text note. Might be useful for redactional purposes.

References:

• references: short documentary references.
• bibliography.

Text:

• text: text or a part of it when required.
• apparatus layer: critical apparatus.
• orthography layer: can be used to annotate and categorize linguistic phenomena reflected in orthography.
• comment layer: can be used to comment specific words of the text.

Sites

General:

• name(s)*: the site's name(s).
• metadata*: the site's metadata. This should at least include a hid metadatum whose value is the human-friendly ID used to link inscriptions to sites.
• location*: geographic location. This is used to pinpoint the site on a map, as a point (representing its conventionally defined center) and eventually also as a region (defined with shapes like polygons).
• external IDs

Comment:

• comment
• note

References:

• references

History

2.0.0

• 2023-02-03: migrated to new components factory. This is a breaking change for backend components, please see this page. Anyway, in the end you just have to update your libraries and a single namespace reference. Benefits include:
  • more streamlined component instantiation.
  • more functionality in components factory, including DI.
  • dropped third party dependencies.
  • adopted standard MS technologies for DI.

1.0.2

• 2022-12-21: updated packages.

1.0.1

• 2022-11-25: updated packages.
