[EP-tech] Re: Pulling research publications from EPrints into a staff profile -- how have others done it?

Hi there

 

Perhaps you would like to try out feed2js. It is a great tool that accepts RSS URLS and then outputs a _javascript_ code that can be pasted on your webpage.

 

Regards

Hi Alex,

 

We are about to do the same. One useful thing you can do is to grab all the eprints for an author as JSON and use that. E.g. if you change your URL to the following, you will see the JSON.

 

 

You can also export in XML by just changing JSON to XML in the above link.

 

Hope this is useful.

 

Best wishes,

Hi,

On our main website, we have a staff directory which includes a page with a list of publications for each member of academic and research staff.  We would like this page to pull the list of publications from Eprints.  I have suggested that the page could be constructed from a canned search of eprints, such as http://eprints.mdx.ac.uk/view/creators/Birchall=3AAlexander_John=3A=3A.html.  I'd like to know how others have achieved this goal?  Particularly, which tools were used (XML, RSS, _javascript_, etc).

Many thanks!
