<title>&acro.dom; &acro.xml; Record Model and Filter Module</title>
<para>
The record model described in this chapter applies to the fundamental,
structured &acro.xml;
record type <literal>&acro.dom;</literal>, introduced in
<xref linkend="componentmodulesdom"/>. The &acro.dom; &acro.xml; record model
is experimental, and its inner workings might change in future
releases of the &zebra; Information Server.
</para>
<section id="record-model-domxml-filter">
<title>&acro.dom; Record Filter Architecture</title>
<para>
The &acro.dom; &acro.xml; filter uses a standard &acro.dom; &acro.xml; structure as
internal data model, and can therefore parse, index, and display
any &acro.xml; document type. It is well suited to work on
standardized &acro.xml;-based formats such as Dublin Core, MODS, METS,
MARCXML, OAI-PMH, RSS, and performs equally well on any other
non-standard &acro.xml; format.
</para>
<para>
A parser for binary &acro.marc; records based on the ISO2709 library
standard is provided, it transforms these to the internal
&acro.marcxml; &acro.dom; representation. Other binary document parsers
are planned to follow.
</para>
<para>
The &acro.dom; filter architecture consists of four
different pipelines, each being a chain of arbitrarily many successive
&acro.xslt; transformations of the internal &acro.dom; &acro.xml;
representations of documents.

<para>
The &acro.dom; &acro.xml; filter pipelines use &acro.xslt; (and if supported on
your platform, even &acro.exslt;), it brings thus full &acro.xpath;
support to the indexing, storage and display rules of not only
&acro.xml; documents, but also binary &acro.marc; records.

<title>Canonical Indexing Format</title>
<para>
&acro.dom; &acro.xml; indexing comes in two flavors: pure
processing-instruction governed plain &acro.xml; documents, and - very
similar to the Alvis filter indexing format - &acro.xml; documents
containing &acro.xml; <literal><record></literal> and
<literal><index></literal> instructions from the magic
namespace <literal>xmlns:z="http://indexdata.com/zebra-2.0"</literal>.
</para>
<section id="record-model-domxml-canonical-index-pi">
<title>Processing-instruction governed indexing format</title>
<para>The output of the processing instruction driven
indexing &acro.xslt; stylesheets must contain
processing instructions named
<literal>zebra-2.0</literal>.
The output of the &acro.xslt; indexing transformation is then
parsed using &acro.dom; methods, and the contained instructions are
performed on the <emphasis>elements and their
subtrees directly following the processing instructions</emphasis>.
</para>
<para>
For example, the output of the command
<screen>
xsltproc dom-index-pi.xsl marc-one.xml

possibly nested <literal>index</literal> and
<literal>group</literal> instructions.

</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The unique <literal>record</literal> instruction
may have additional attributes <literal>id</literal>,

<literal>' '</literal>.
The <literal>rank</literal> attribute value must be a
non-negative integer. See
<xref linkend="administration-ranking"/> .
The <literal>type</literal> attribute specifies how the record
is to be treated. The following values may be given for
<literal>type</literal>:
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>insert</literal></term>
<listitem>

The <literal>group</literal> can be used to group
indexing material for proximity search. It can be used to
search for material that should all occur within the same

which can be one of known Z39.50 proximity units:
<literal>sentence</literal> (3),
<literal>paragraph</literal> (4),
<literal>section</literal> (5),

<para>The examples work as follows:
From the original &acro.xml; file
<literal>marc-one.xml</literal> (or from the &acro.xml; record &acro.dom; of the
same form coming from an <literal><input></literal>
pipeline),
the indexing
pipeline <literal><extract></literal>
produces an indexing &acro.xml; record, which is defined by
the <literal>record</literal> instruction
&zebra; uses the content of
<literal>z:id="11224466"</literal>
or
<literal>id=11224466</literal>
as internal
record ID, and - in case static ranking is set - the content of
<literal>rank=42</literal>
or
<literal>z:rank="42"</literal>
as static rank.
</para>
<para>In these examples, the following literal indexes are constructed:
<screen>
any:w
control:0
title:w
title:p
title:s
</screen>
where the indexing type is defined after the
literal <literal>':'</literal> character.
Any value from the standard configuration
file <filename>default.idx</filename> will do.
Finally, any
<literal>text()</literal> node content recursively contained
inside the <literal><z:index></literal> element, or any
element following a <literal>index</literal> processing instruction,
will be filtered through the
appropriate char map for character normalization, and will be
inserted in the named indexes.
</para>
<para>
Finally, this example configuration can be queried using &acro.pqf;

<para>
As mentioned above, there can be only one indexing pipeline,
and configuration of the indexing process is a synonym
of writing an &acro.xslt; stylesheet which produces &acro.xml; output containing the
magic processing instructions or elements discussed in
<xref linkend="record-model-domxml-canonical-index"/>.
Obviously, there are million of different ways to accomplish this
task, and some comments and code snippets are in order to
enlighten the wary.
</para>
<para>
Stylesheets can be written in the <emphasis>pull</emphasis> or
the <emphasis>push</emphasis> style: <emphasis>pull</emphasis>
means that the output &acro.xml; structure is taken as starting point of
the internal structure of the &acro.xslt; stylesheet, and portions of
the input &acro.xml; are <emphasis>pulled</emphasis> out and inserted
into the right spots of the output &acro.xml; structure.
On the other
side, <emphasis>push</emphasis> &acro.xslt; stylesheets are recursively
calling their template definitions, a process which is commanded
by the input &acro.xml; structure, and is triggered to produce
some output &acro.xml;
whenever some special conditions in the input stylesheets are
met. The <emphasis>pull</emphasis> type is well-suited for input
&acro.xml; with strong and well-defined structure and semantics, like the
following &acro.oai; indexing example, whereas the
<emphasis>push</emphasis> type might be the only possible way to
sort out deeply recursive input &acro.xml; formats.
</para>
<para>
A <emphasis>pull</emphasis> stylesheet example used to index
&acro.oai; harvested records could use some of the following template
definitions:

<title>&acro.dom; Indexing &acro.marcxml;</title>
<para>
The &acro.dom; filter allows indexing of both binary &acro.marc; records
and &acro.marcxml; records, depending on its configuration.
A typical &acro.marcxml; record might look like this:
<screen>
<![CDATA[
<record xmlns="http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim">
<rank>42</rank>
<leader>00366nam 22001698a 4500</leader>

</record>
]]>
</screen>
</para>
<para>
It is easily possible to make string manipulation in the &acro.dom;
filter. For example, if you want to drop some leading articles
in the indexing of sort fields, you might want to pick out the
&acro.marcxml; indicator attributes to chop of leading substrings. If
the above &acro.xml; example would have an indicator
<literal>ind2="8"</literal> in the title field
<literal>245</literal>, i.e.
<screen>
<![CDATA[
<datafield tag="245" ind1="1" ind2="8">
<subfield code="a">How to program a computer</subfield>
</datafield>
]]>
</screen>
one could write a template taking into account this information
to chop the first <literal>8</literal> characters from the
sorting index <literal>title:s</literal> like this:
<screen>
<![CDATA[
<xsl:template match="m:datafield[@tag='245']">
<xsl:variable name="chop">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="not(number(@ind2))">0</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise><xsl:value-of select="number(@ind2)"/></xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
<z:index name="title:w title:p any:w">
<xsl:value-of select="m:subfield[@code='a']"/>
</z:index>
<z:index name="title:s">
<xsl:value-of select="substring(m:subfield[@code='a'], $chop)"/>
</z:index>
</xsl:template>
]]>
</screen>
The output of the above &acro.marcxml; and &acro.xslt; excerpt would then be:
<screen>
<![CDATA[
<z:index name="title:w title:p any:w">How to program a computer</z:index>
<z:index name="title:s">program a computer</z:index>
]]>
</screen>
and the record would be sorted in the title index under 'P', not 'H'.
</para>
</section>
<section id="record-model-domxml-index-wizzard">
<title>&acro.dom; Indexing Wizardry</title>
<para>
The names and types of the indexes can be defined in the
indexing &acro.xslt; stylesheet <emphasis>dynamically according to
content in the original &acro.xml; records</emphasis>, which has
opportunities for great power and wizardry as well as grande
disaster.
</para>
<para>
The following excerpt of a <emphasis>push</emphasis> stylesheet
<emphasis>might</emphasis>
be a good idea according to your strict control of the &acro.xml;
input format (due to rigorous checking against well-defined and
tight RelaxNG or &acro.xml; Schema's, for example):
<screen>
<![CDATA[
<xsl:template name="element-name-indexes">
<z:index name="{name()}:w">
<xsl:value-of select="'1'"/>
</z:index>
</xsl:template>
]]>
</screen>
This template creates indexes which have the name of the working
node of any input &acro.xml; file, and assigns a '1' to the index.
The example query
<literal>find @attr 1=xyz 1</literal>
finds all files which contain at least one
<literal>xyz</literal> &acro.xml; element. In case you can not control
which element names the input files contain, you might ask for
disaster and bad karma using this technique.
</para>
<para>
One variation over the theme <emphasis>dynamically created
indexes</emphasis> will definitely be unwise:
<screen>
<![CDATA[
<!-- match on oai xml record root -->
<xsl:template match="/">
<z:record>
<!-- create dynamic index name from input content -->
<xsl:variable name="dynamic_content">
<xsl:value-of select="oai:record/oai:header/oai:identifier"/>
</xsl:variable>
<!-- create zillions of indexes with unknown names -->
<z:index name="{$dynamic_content}:w">
<xsl:value-of select="oai:record/oai:metadata/oai_dc:dc"/>
</z:index>
</z:record>
</xsl:template>
]]>
</screen>
Don't be tempted to play too smart tricks with the power of
&acro.xslt;, the above example will create zillions of
indexes with unpredictable names, resulting in severe &zebra;
index pollution..

<section id="record-model-domxml-debug">
<title>Debuggig &acro.dom; Filter Configurations</title>
<para>
It can be very hard to debug a &acro.dom; filter setup due to the many
successive &acro.marc; syntax translations, &acro.xml; stream splitting and
&acro.xslt; transformations involved. As an aid, you have always the
power of the <literal>-s</literal> command line switch to the
<literal>zebraidz</literal> indexing command at your hand:
<screen>
zebraidx -s -c zebra.cfg update some_record_stream.xml
</screen>
This command line simulates indexing and dumps a lot of debug
information in the logs, telling exactly which transformations
have been applied, how the documents look like after each
transformation, and which record ids and terms are send to the indexer.
</para>

<!--
<section id="record-model-domxml-elementset">
<title>&acro.dom; Exchange Formats</title>
<para>
An exchange format can be anything which can be the outcome of an
&acro.xslt; transformation, as far as the stylesheet is registered in
the main &acro.dom; &acro.xslt; filter configuration file, see
<xref linkend="record-model-domxml-filter"/>.
In principle anything that can be expressed in &acro.xml;, HTML, and
TEXT can be the output of a <literal>schema</literal> or
<literal>element set</literal> directive during search, as long as
the information comes from the
<emphasis>original input record &acro.xml; &acro.dom; tree</emphasis>
