get_sort_codes

This service formats the tab_sort table residing under a given library into an XML output reply.

X-Service

Version 18 and later

1. LIBRARY – X (5).

Library: Insert the library for which you want to have an XML format tab_sort table.

Each line in tab_sort will have an XML tag with its record number in the table (for example, <sort-01> for the first record in the table). For each record, all field codes and their subfields will also be included in the XML.

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?>
<get-sort-codes>
  <sort-01>
    <field-code-1>008</field-code-1>
    <field-code-2>260##</field-code-2>
    <sub-field-2>c</sub-field-2>
  </sort-01>
  <sort-02>
    <field-code-1>1####</field-code-1>
    <sub-field-1>a</sub-field-1>
    <field-code-2>700##</field-code-2>
    <sub-field-2>a</sub-field-2>
  </sort-02>

Example:

If you want to get formatted XML for the tab_sort table residing under the USM01 library, enter the following URL:

http://ram19:8991/X?op=get-sort-codes&library=usm01

In USM01, the tab_sort table looks like this:

!                                             1             1             1    1
!1 2    3     4   5   6     7   8   9    10   1  12    13   4  15    16   7 18 9

The output will only generate the codes (fields: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15) and subfields (fields: 4,7,10,13,16):
