[EP-tech] Re: EPrints and RSS feeds

Hi John,


I checked the plugins, which lead me to perl_lib/EPrints/XHTML.pm as they call on subroutines in that file. 


Here's an example that I pulled from an RSS feed on Goldsmiths (within the description tag for each item):


<description> Banissy, Michael J. &lt;http://research.gold.ac.uk/view/goldsmiths/Banissy=3AMichael_J=2E=3A=3A.html&gt;; Jonas, Clare and Cohen Kadosh, Roi.  2014.  Synesthesia: an introduction.    Frontiers in Psychology, 5(1414),   pp. 1-3.  ISSN 1664-1078 [Article]     </description>


I'm trying to remove the following link, which is generated because the author has other items in the same repository:


&lt;http://research.gold.ac.uk/view/goldsmiths/Banissy=3AMichael_J=2E=3A=3A.html&gt;


I'm stumped - I've tried turning off show_links and have also changed the _to_text_dump subroutine, which transforms <a> into " <href>" within the description tag.


Cheers,


Andrew

Hi,

Have you got an example for us to take a look at?

In the RSS feed, there are probably links you want/need (e.g in the individual <item>s).

 

The RSS feeds are generated as an export from

~/perl_lib/EPrints/Plugin/Export/RSS.pm

or

~/perl_lib/EPrints/Plugin/Export/RSS2.pm

 

- the key to what you’re trying to do may well be in one of these…

 

Cheers,

John

Subject: [EP-tech] EPrints and RSS feeds

 

Hi everyone,

 

Just wondering if anybody has experience changing the way that RSS feeds display citation information. I'm trying to eliminate links as they are adding an additional space that's causing confusion with third-party sites that consume the RSS feed. 

 

By default, in perl_lib/EPrints/XHTML.pm, show_links is enabled with show_links => 0. I tried changing the 0 to a 1 and to undef, but the link still persists. Likewise, I also tried modifying the _to_text_dump subroutine in perl_lib/EPrints/XHTML.pm by specifying that $contents .= "", but the link still shows.

 

Any thoughts or suggestions on where else I should look would be much appreciated as I'm still learning the ins and outs of EPrints.

 

Have a great weekend!

 

Cheers,

 

Andrew
