When editing an existing record, if the cataloger wants to add a new
field, s/he can currently add a new empty MARC field only. For
efficiency purposes, it would be useful to offer the cataloger a
drop-down menu from which s/he could choose the field s/he wants to
add, like:
Add new field: [empty MARC field]
[first author]
[additional author]
[title]
[journal publication information]
[conference information]
[keyword]
The predefined field templates would be snippets of MARCXML that would
look like:
<!-- BibEdit-Field-Template-Name: first author -->
<!-- BibEdit-Field-Template-Description: first author -->
<record>
<datafield tag="100" ind1=" " ind2=" ">
<subfield code="a">VOLATILE: Familyname, Firstname</subfield>
<subfield code="u">VOLATILE: Affiliation</subfield>
</datafield>
</record>
just as the record templates we already provide (see also task
#10260).
The field templates would live in
/opt/cds-invenio/etc/bibedit/field_templates/, a parallel to
/opt/cds-invenio/etc/bibedit/record_templates/.
The existing BibEdit-Template-* headers in XML comments should be
renamed to BibEdit-Record-Template-* to have a nice `record template'
and `field template' naming parallel.
* * *
Feature extension: it would be nice to have a notion of multiplicity
in the field snippet, in order to insert 20 additional authors in one
go, for example to have:
Add new field: [additional author]
[5 additional authors]
[10 additional authors]
where the three field templates would contain different number of
additional authors inside. In other words, a template snippet could
contain more than one field instance.
Alternatively, one could specify a number of how many times a certain
field template should be applied, like:
Add new fields: [1] [additional author(s)]
[2]
[3]
