Catmandu::Importer::MARC is a Catmandu::Importer to import MARC records from an external source. Each record is imported as HASH containing two keys:
_id
the system identifier of the record (usually the 001 field)
record
an ARRAY of ARRAYs containing the record data
{ record => [ [ '001', undef, undef, '_', 'fol05882032 ' ], [ '245', '1', '0', 'a', 'Cross-platform Perl /', 'c', 'Eric F. Johnson.' ], ], _id' => 'fol05882032' }
This module inherits all methods of Catmandu::Importer and by this Catmandu::Iterable.
Read input from a local file given by its path. Alternatively a scalar reference can be passed to read from a string.
Read input from an IO::Handle. If not specified, Catmandu::Util::io is used to create the input stream from the file argument or by using STDIN.
file
An ARRAY of one or more fixes or file scripts to be applied to imported items.
The MARC format to parse. The following MARC parsers are available:
ISO: L<Catmandu::Importer::MARC::ISO> (default) - a strict ISO 2709 parser RAW: L<Catmandu::Importer::MARC::RAW> - a loose ISO 2709 parser that skips faulty records ALEPHSEQ: L<Catmandu::Importer::MARC::ALEPHSEQ> - a parser for Ex Libris Aleph sequential files Lint: L<Catmandu::Importer::MARC::Lint> - a MARC syntax checker MicroLIF: L<Catmandu::Importer::MARC::MicroLIF> - a parser for the MicroLIF format MARCMaker: L<Catmandu::Importer::MARC::MARCMaker> - a parser for MARCMaker/MARCBreaker records MiJ: L<Catmandu::Importer::MARC::MiJ> (MARC in JSON) - a parser for the MARC-in-JSON format XML: L<Catmandu::Importer::MARC::XML> - a parser for the MARC XML format
If set, then any errors when parsing MARC input will be skipped and ignored. Use the debug setting of catmandu to view all error messages:
$ catmandu -D convert MARC --skip_errors 1 < /foo/bar.mrc
Every MARC importer can have its own options. Check the documentation of the specific importer.
