Page Comparison

New data sources are available for the web sites to display information managed in the CineFiles CollectionSpace system. Their design is based on the requirements for the IST-developed site, but they have been refactored extensively. These data sources are described below. A separate document will describe how these data sources are refreshed (TBD).

Table of Contents

maxLevel	2

doclist_view

doclist_view is a table despite the name. The name was retained in order to simplify refactoring the IST developed CineFiles web site. This is the primary source for searching documents (keyword search and field-based search). It is also a primary source for the document citation that is displayed by the function doc_detail_summary.

Notes

Resolved - one row per document. NOTE: This table is supposed to have one row per document. As of 3/19/2014 there are 884 documents with two rows, due to the fact that some sources have more than one srcUrl value. That will be fixed in a future version.
