Prepare documents for -.B SiSU -using your text editor of choice, then use -.B SiSU -to generate various output document formats. - -.BR -From a single lightly prepared document (plain-text -.I UTF-8 -) sisu custom builds several standard output formats which share a common (text -object) numbering system for citation of content within a document (that also -has implications for search). The sisu engine works with an abstraction of the -document's structure and content from which it is possible to generate -different forms of representation of the document. -.B SiSU -produces: plain-text, -.I HTML, -.I XHTML, -.I XML, -.I EPUB, -.I ODF: -.I ODT -(Opendocument), -.I LaTeX, -.I PDF, -and populates an -.I SQL -database ( -.I PostgreSQL -or -.I SQLite -) with text objects, roughly, paragraph sized chunks so that document searches -are done at this level of granularity. - -.BR -Outputs share a common citation numbering system, associated with text objects -and any semantic meta-data provided about the document. - -.BR - -.B SiSU -also provides concordance files, document content certificates and manifests of -generated output. Book indexes may be made. - -.BR -Some document markup samples are provided in the package sisu -markup-samples. -Homepages: - -- - -- - -.SH COMMANDS SUMMARY - -.SH DESCRIPTION - -.BR - -.B SiSU -is a document publishing system, that from a simple single marked-up document, -produces multiple output formats including: -.I plaintext, -.I HTML, -.I XHTML, -.I XML, -.I EPUB, -.I ODT -( -.I OpenDocument -( -.I ODF -) text), -.I LaTeX, -.I PDF, -info, and -.I SQL -( -.I PostgreSQL -and -.I SQLite -) , which share text object numbers ("object citation numbering") and the same -document structure information.

They resemble regular -.B SiSU -text files (.sst). Since sisu -5.5.0 (6.1.0) .ssi files can like .ssm files -include other .sst or .ssm files. .ssi files cannot be called by the sisu -processor directly and can only be incorporated in other documents. Making a -file a .ssi file is a quick and convenient way of breaking up a document that -is to be included in a master document, and flagging that the file to be -incorporated .ssi is not intended that the file should be processed on its own. -.SH SISUPOD, ZIPPED BINARY CONTAINER (SISUPOD.ZIP, .SSP) - - -.BR -A sisupod is a zipped -.B SiSU -text file or set of -.B SiSU -text files and any associated images that they contain (this will be extended -to include sound and multimedia-files) -.TP -.B SiSU -.I plaintext -files rely on a recognised directory structure to find contents such as images -associated with documents, but all images for example for all documents -contained in a directory are located in the sub-directory _sisu/image. Without -the ability to create a sisupod it can be inconvenient to manually identify all -other files associated with a document. A sisupod automatically bundles all -associated files with the document that is turned into a pod. - -.BR -The structure of the sisupod is such that it may for example contain a single -document and its associated images; a master document and its associated -documents and anything else; or the zipped contents of a whole directory of -prepared -.B SiSU -documents. - -.BR -The command to create a sisupod is: - -.BR - sisu -S [filename] - -.BR -Alternatively, make a pod of the contents of a whole directory: - -.BR - sisu -S - -.BR - -.B SiSU -processing can be done directly against a sisupod; which may be located locally -or on a remote server for which a url is provided. - -.BR - - -.BR - -.SH CONFIGURATION - -.SH CONFIGURATION FILES - -.SH CONFIG.YML - - -.BR - -.B SiSU -configration parameters are adjusted in the configuration file, which can be -used to override the defaults set. This includes such things as which directory -interim processing should be done in and where the generated output should be -placed. - -.BR -The -.B SiSU -configuration file is a yaml file, which means indentation is significant. - -.BR - -.B SiSU -resource configuration is determined by looking at the following files if they -exist: - -.BR - ./_sisu/v7/sisurc.yml - -.BR - ./_sisu/sisurc.yml - -.BR - ~/.sisu/v7/sisurc.yml - -.BR - ~/.sisu/sisurc.yml - -.BR - /etc/sisu/v7/sisurc.yml - -.BR - /etc/sisu/sisurc.yml - -.BR -The search is in the order listed, and the first one found is used. - -.BR -In the absence of instructions in any of these it falls back to the internal -program defaults. - -.BR -Configuration determines the output and processing directories and the database -access details. - -.BR -If -.B SiSU -is installed a sample sisurc.yml may be found in /etc/sisu/sisurc.yml -.SH SISU_DOCUMENT_MAKE - - -.BR -Most sisu document headers relate to metadata, the exception is the @make: -header which provides processing related information.

It contains the sisu source files (.sst .ssm .ssi), or (for -sisu v3 may contain) subdirectories with language codes which contain the sisu -source files, so all English files would go in subdirectory en/, French in fr/, -Spanish in es/ and so on. ISO 639-1 codes are used (as varied by po4a). A list -of available languages (and possible sub-directory names) can be obtained with -the command "sisu --help lang" The list of languages is limited to langagues -supported by XeTeX polyglosia. -.SH GENERAL DIRECTORIES - -.nf - ./subject_name/ - -% files stored at this level e.g. sisu_manual.sst or -% for sisu v3 may be under language sub-directories -% e.g. - - ./subject_name/en - - ./subject_name/fr - - ./subject_name/es - - ./subject_name/_sisu - - ./subject_name/_sisu/css - - ./subject_name/_sisu/image -.fi - -.SH DOCUMENT OUTPUT DIRECTORY STRUCTURES - -.SH OUTPUT DIRECTORY ROOT - - -.BR -The output directory root can be set in the sisurc.yml file. Under the root, -subdirectories are made for each directory in which a document set resides. If -you have a directory named poems or conventions, that directory will be created -under the output directory root and the output for all documents contained in -the directory of a particular name will be generated to subdirectories beneath -that directory (poem or conventions). A document will be placed in a -subdirectory of the same name as the document with the filetype identifier -stripped (.sst .ssm) - -.BR -The last part of a directory path, representing the sub-directory in which a -document set resides, is the directory name that will be used for the output -directory. This has implications for the organisation of document collections -as it could make sense to place documents of a particular subject, or type -within a directory identifying them. This grouping as suggested could be by -subject (sales_law, english_literature); or just as conveniently by some other -classification (X University).

Documents are prepared in a -single -.I UTF-8 -file using a minimalistic mnemonic syntax. Typical literature, documents like -"War and Peace" require almost no markup, and most of the headers are optional. - -.BR -- markup is easily readable/parsable by the human eye, (basic markup is simpler -and more sparse than the most basic -.I HTML -) , [this may also be converted to -.I XML -representations of the same input/source document]. - -.BR -- markup defines document structure (this may be done once in a header -pattern-match description, or for heading levels individually); basic text -attributes (bold, italics, underscore, strike-through etc.) as required; and -semantic information related to the document (header information, extended -beyond the Dublin core and easily further extended as required); the headers -may also contain processing instructions. -.B SiSU -markup is primarily an abstraction of document structure and document metadata -to permit taking advantage of the basic strengths of existing alternative -practical standard ways of representing documents [be that browser viewing, -paper publication, sql search etc.] (html, epub, xml, odf, latex, pdf, sql) - -.BR -- for output produces reasonably elegant output of established industry and -institutionally accepted open standard formats.[3] takes advantage of the -different strengths of various standard formats for representing documents, -amongst the output formats currently supported are: - -.BR -* -.I HTML -- both as a single scrollable text and a segmented document - -.BR -* -.I XHTML - -.BR -* -.I EPUB - -.BR -* -.I XML -- both in sax and dom style xml structures for further development as required - -.BR -* -.I ODT -- Open Document Format text, the iso standard for document storage - -.BR -* -.I LaTeX -- used to generate pdf - -.BR -* -.I PDF -(via -.I LaTeX -) - -.BR -* -.I SQL -- population of an sql database ( -.I PostgreSQL -or -.I SQLite -) , (at the same object level that is used to cite text within a document) - -.BR -Also produces: concordance files; document content certificates (md5 or sha256 -digests of headings, paragraphs, images etc.) and html manifests (and sitemaps -of content). (b) takes advantage of the strengths implicit in these very -different output types, (e.g. PDFs produced using typesetting of -.I LaTeX, -databases populated with documents at an individual object/paragraph level, -making possible -.I granular search -(and related possibilities)) - -.BR -- ensuring content can be cited in a meaningful way regardless of selected -output format. Online publishing (and publishing in multiple document formats) -lacks a useful way of citing text internally within documents (important to -academics generally and to lawyers) as page numbers are meaningless across -browsers and formats. sisu seeks to provide a common way of pinpoint the text -within a document, (which can be utilized for citation and by search engines). -The outputs share a common numbering system that is meaningful (to man and -machine) across all digital outputs whether paper, screen, or database -oriented, (pdf, -.I HTML, -.I EPUB, -xml, sqlite, postgresql) , this numbering system can be used to reference -content. - -.BR -- Granular search within documents. -.I SQL -databases are populated at an object level (roughly headings, paragraphs, -verse, tables) and become searchable with that degree of granularity, the -output information provides the object/paragraph numbers which are relevant -across all generated outputs; it is also possible to look at just the matching -paragraphs of the documents in the database; [output indexing also work well -with search indexing tools like hyperestraier]. - -.BR -- long term maintainability of document collections in a world of changing -formats, having a very sparsely marked-up source document base. there is a -considerable degree of future-proofing, output representations are -"upgradeable", and new document formats may be added. e.g. addition of odf -(open document text) module in 2006, epub in 2009 and in future html5 output -sometime in future, without modification of existing prepared texts - -.BR -* -.I SQL -search aside, documents are generated as required and static once generated. - -.BR -- documents produced are static files, and may be batch processed, this needs -to be done only once but may be repeated for various reasons as desired -(updated content, addition of new output formats, updated technology document -presentations/representations) - -.BR -- document source ( -.I plaintext -utf-8) if shared on the net may be used as input and processed locally to -produce the different document outputs - -.BR -- document source may be bundled together (automatically) with associated -documents (multiple language versions or master document with inclusions) and -images and sent as a zip file called a sisupod, if shared on the net these too -may be processed locally to produce the desired document outputs - -.BR -- generated document outputs may automatically be posted to remote sites. - -.BR -- for basic document generation, the only software dependency is -.B Ruby, -and a few standard Unix tools (this covers -.I plaintext, -.I HTML, -.I EPUB, -.I XML, -.I ODF, -.I LaTeX -) .
