Bug Description
I am using Islandora which uses Internet Archive Bookreader to display page-image books. I have thousands of books to migrate from another system. These books have human-created Table of Contents information stored in XML. I would like to write specifications for a program that would take my XML TOC information and reformat it into the IA-specified Table of Contents format that is used by the BookReader.
First of all, does this sound feasible?
Second, if feasible, what is the format of TOC information I need to supply. I see the comments in the code:
"pagenum" : "17",
"level" : 1,
"label" : "Chapter I",
"type" : {"key" : "/type/toc_item},
"title" : "THE COUNTRY..."
but I am not sure what this means -- is it a text file? what are the values for "type"?
Appreciate any advice you can give.
