RelatonIso is a Ruby gem that implements the IsoBibliographicItem model.

You can use it to retrieve metadata of ISO Standards from https://www.iso.org, and access such metadata through the IsoBibliographicItem object.

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

gem 'relaton-iso'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install relaton-iso

Usage

Configuration

Configuration is optional. The available option is logger which is a Logger instance. By default, the logger is Logger.new($stderr) with Logger::WARN level. To change the logger level, use RelatonIso.configure block.

require 'relaton_iso'
=> true

RelatonIso.configure do |config|
  config.logger.level = Logger::DEBUG
end

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).

Exceptional Citations

This gem retrieves bibliographic descriptions of ISO documents by doing searches on the ISO website, http://www.iso.org, and screenscraping the document that matches the queried document identifier. The following documents are not returned as search results from the ISO website, and the gem returns manually generated references to them.

  • IEV: used in the metanorma-iso gem to reference Electropedia entries generically. Is resolved to an "all parts" reference to IEC 60050, which in turn is resolved into the specific documents cited by their top-level clause.
