Re: [EP-tech] Access Namedset values from EPS

Hi Alan,

I believe the tags function should work on both set and namedset fields.  E.g.

my $eprint_ds = $repo->dataset( 'eprint' );
my @types = $eprint_ds->get_field( 'type' )->tags; # namedset
my @statuses = $eprint_ds->get_field( 'eprint_status' )->tags; # set
use Data::Dumper;
print STDERR "types: ".Dumper( @types )."\n\n";
print STDERR "statuses: ".Dumper( @statuses )."\n";

I will look into adding an "Additional Functions" section to each of the MetaField pages listed under https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Category:EPrints_Metadata_Fields

Regards

David Newman

Hi,
Am I missing a mechanism to access the options of a Namedset outside of an input metafield? e.g. in an EPScript or perl script? I’m not seeing anything in the wiki or looking at the code.

Cheers,

Alan
