#911: Jinja2 instead of BibConvert
-----------------------------------------------+-----------------

Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: BibConvert | Version:
Keywords: WebSubmit record creation marcxml |
-----------------------------------------------+-----------------
Now that we are switching to Flask and consequently to Jinja2 as
templating language, we can exploit this to have it as a lingua franca for
templates in Invenio.
For example it could be used to create XMLMARC record, given its XML
friendly feature (e.g. autoescape), its simple syntax (to create IF and
FOR constructs), and we might power it with some builtin extension to
easily generate MARCXML,
To allow e.g. for writing:
{{{
{% if authors %}
{{ datafield("100") subfield("a", authors[0]) enddatafield }}
{% for author in authors[1:] %}
{{ datafield("700") subfield("a", author) enddatafield }}
{% end for %}
{% end if %}
}}}
