ZEEREX_EXPLAIN(3mp)

NAME
zeerex_explain - Metaproxy Z39.50 ZeeRex Explain Module

DESCRIPTION

The zeerex_explain Metaproxy filter answers valid Z39.50 explain requests, returning a static ZeeRex Explain XML record from the config section. All other packages are passed through.

Multiple database elements defining the names of the accepted databases are allowed in the configuration file. Each of them must contain their own explain record. Notice that explain records come in SRU and Z39.50 flavours, and this filter requires the Z39.50 version. See the ZeeRex Explain[1] standard pages and the SRU Explain[2] pages for more information.

    Warning

    This filter is not yet completed.

EXAMPLES

A typical configuration looks like this:

        <filter type="zeerex_explain">
          <database name="Default">
            <explain xmlns="http://explain.z3950.org/dtd/2.0/">
              ...
            </explain>
          </database>
        </filter>
