Gramps meaning2/1/2024 ![]() It was exactly the same when I first suggested Main-/Sub-Event and Places as Subjects for Events…Īnd here you are, asking for the same thing, 1,5-2 years or so later. ![]() So what I have done, is to use Excel with Power Query as hub as a hub (until my Python Script is working as I want it to), merging data to and from the Gramps xml file. My bad to believe that Open Source Software also ment Open Data. One of the reasons I stopped using Legacy was because of the locked in data, but I actually find that data in Gramps is as locked in when it comes to utilizing it for multiple purpose, and I’m about to stop using Gramps for the same reason. and then the standard comment comes “Fork it and do it yourself”.Īnd since any of my suggestions are so useless and so bad… I just dropped using Gramps as anything but a simple data storage, all my research logs, research notes, data analyzing etc., is now in Markdown and network graph format stored in neo4j, and my unstructured text in markdown is easily analyzed in Cytoscape, Tulip or Gephi with the use of the Juggl add-on for Obsidian, citations and notes made in Zotero can be easily used with plugins, I can export anything in any “style” or “text format” I like with a plugin for Zotero, and I can easily use any Bibliography style I like with plugins for either Obsidian, VS Codium + Foam or Zettlr, and I get the exact same information into any network graph software or any other research tool I use. The risk is again that a project based on this will be the same as inventing the wheel all over again.Īnd Personally I really don’t understand why it’s so important to do that for developers, to “invent” there own solutions to something that already have multiple well supported and working solutions.ĬSL Json is only one of multiple standards that can be used, I have asked for import/export of both JSON-LD (RDF/OWL) and other open data/open standard formats, like a graph format, but the same answer occur regardless, some “developer” or someone in the “inner circle of Linux users” doesn’t understand what it can be used for and therefore the idea bad, it’s not usable, its not possible, etc. The bibliography ontology that base there work on is dated, the newest information I could find about it was dated 2015, and it is as limited as CSL if not more limited. In that field I can paste any fully qualified Citation or Bibliography string I like from my Bibliography Manager of choice, and if I need more information for some reason, I can add it manually by editing the string, the problem is that doing this manual job 500 times when adding new information is time consuming, and because of that, it would be great if there was support for already existing bibliography formats, and CSL is one that is well established in most research environments, including most universities world wide, another widely used standard is Dublin Core. I don’t see the problem with “Volume/Page” the way you do. I am Norwegian and I use Zotero, Jabref and Citava for ALL my sources, I have no problem what so ever to get the citation/bibliography string I need from any of them… It is also possible to copy/paste strings from FOR EXAMPLE Zotero to any text field in Gramps with either any of the predefined CSL Standard Citation/Bibliography Style formats, or create your own format with the style editor in Zotero, I can not tell if that is possible in jabref of citava, because I don’t use those two software for that purpose. Just storing all in extras in citation attributes is not an option, because that means that they will always appear in English, and we are an international community. to aunt Martha, and accept that they must be translated to all the languages supported by Gramps. And for each of the other ones, you have to make a decision about how to present them to the user, i.e. ![]() Some can be easily mapped to existing variables, like author, or title, or date, but volume/page is already a problem. That is, because for each of the dozens of potential variables, you have to decide what to do with it. Most reference managers can write way more variables than currently exist in the Gramps data model for repos, sources, and citation, so reading CSL JSON is not as easy at it looks. Good points, and focus is part of the problem.
