Hi Vincent,
You're right that the exporters are not configurable right now. Nobody
has asked for that before so there wasn't a need to make them
configurable. What you can do is to write one yourself. Take a look at
the tab separated value exporter as a starting example
http://static.simile.mit.edu/exhibit/api-2.0/scripts/data/exporters/tsv-exporter.js
So, you need some Javascript code, e.g.,
<script>
var EmailExporter = {
getLabel: function() { return "Email addresses"; }
};
EmailExporter.exportOne = function(itemID, database) {
...
};
EmailExporter.exportMany = function(set, database) {
...
};
</script>
and then you need to hook it up in HTML
<body ex:exporters="EmailExporter">
Cheers,
David
