Use named IDs again when writing METS files #6088
Comments
If this issue will be solved, the persistence of the ID should be regarded!
Although i wanted the "name Identifiers" instead of the UUID, i am not sure, if it is a good idea to reinstate the original behavior. I understand your motivation, as I also analyse many METS files myself. Nevertheless, we should take a good look at how the desired goal can be achieved without causing further effort. |
In the 2.x versions, named identifiers were written to the METS files, so FileSec entries got IDs
FILE_0001
,FILE_0002
,FILE_0003
, ..., DmdSec entries got IDsDMD_0001
,DMD_0002
,DMD_0003
, ..., and that for all IDs assigned in METS files. This behavior has been replaced by the use of UUID strings (cf. ca03076), but in practice this is confusing when you look at a METS file in a text editor for debugging purposes. So I would like to reinstate the original behavior. The PR is also for a discussion about whether there are pros and cons to this, and which ones.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
