Re: [EP-tech] Citation on raw db-field value?!

The as_string(<value>) method will output the raw value of a field rather than the rendered version.

There's also a substr(<value>,<offset>,<length>) which may prove useful here.

Not all the methods got documented on <https://wiki.eprints.org/w/EPScript> but you can find the full list of method names, at least, as the run_METHOD subs in
<https://github.com/eprints/eprints/blob/3.3/perl_lib/EPrints/Script/Compiled.pm>

Hi List

read the wiki, tested a couple of combinations... can't figure it out:

is there a way to get the raw db-field value of an single eprint inside a citation without getting the phrase?
I want to use the language_mult field to flag out language changes within the latest tool, using my special citation (Probably i have to cut it from 3-char to 2-char... howto!?).

Cheers
