MARC-HASH: The saga continues (now with even less structure)

After a medium-sized discussion on #code4lib, we’ve collectively decided that…well, ok, no one really cares all that much, but a few people weighed in.

The new format is: A list of arrays. If it’s got two elements, it’s a control field; if it’s got four, it’s a data field.

SO….it’s like this now.

  1. {
  2.   "type" : "marc-hash",
  3.   "version" : [1, 0],
  4.  
  5.   "leader" : "leader string"
  6.   "fields" : [
  7.      ["001", "001 value"]
  8.      ["002", "002 value"]
  9.      ["010", " ", " ",
  10.       [
  11.         ["a", "68009499"]
  12.       ]
  13.     ],
  14.     ["035", " ", " ",
  15.       [
  16.         ["a", "(RLIN)MIUG0000733-B"]
  17.       ],
  18.     ],
  19.     ["035", " ", " ",
  20.       [
  21.         ["a", "(CaOTULAS)159818014"]
  22.       ],
  23.     ],
  24.     ["245", "1", "0",
  25.       [
  26.         ["a", "Capitalism, primitive and modern;"],
  27.         ["b", "some aspects of Tolai economic growth" ],
  28.         ["c", "[by] T. Scarlett Epstein."]
  29.       ]
  30.     ]
  31.   ]
  32. }
