METHODS
new
Read MARC database
my $marc = new MARC::Fast(
marcdb => 'unimarc.iso',
quiet => 0,
debug => 0,
assert => 0,
hash_filter => sub {
my ($t, $record_number) = @_;
$t =~ s/foo/bar/;
return $t;
},
);count
Return number of records in database
print $marc->count;fetch
Fetch record from database
my $hash = $marc->fetch(42);to_hash
Read record with specified MFN and convert it to hash
my $hash = $marc->to_hash($mfn);It has ability to convert characters (using hash_filter) from MARC database before creating structures enabling character re-mapping or quick fix-up of data.
This function returns hash which is like this:
'200' => [
{
'i1' => '1',
'i2' => ' '
'a' => 'Goa',
'f' => 'Valdo D\'Arienzo',
'e' => 'tipografie e tipografi nel XVI secolo',
}
],This method will also create additional field 000 with MFN.
to_ascii
print $marc->to_ascii( 42 );AUTHOR
