− | EPrints is written in Perl. Sometimes you may need to write your own perl code using the EPrints API.
| |
− | | |
− | Reasons to write some EPrints perl code:
| |
− | * customising the way the eprints summary pages are rendered
| |
− | * writing your own script to control EPrints in some way
| |
− | * writing a new CGI script (dynamic web page)
| |
− | * writing a plugin
| |
− | | |
− | We've broken the API down by subject, rather than by library or object. We hope this will make the reference more useful.
| |
− | | |
− | * [[Core API]]
| |
− | * DataObjects + metafields
| |
− | * session+repository+config(?)
| |
− | * Search + List
| |
− | * XML DOM, XHTML
| |
− | * misc(database, time, utils, platform)
| |
− | * metadata fields
| |
− | * Plugins
| |
− | ** Screen (screen processor)

− | To get more detailed documentation on an eprints module, you can try using perldoc. Many (but not all) of the subroutines are documented inside the code.
