A simple Python implementation of BCF. The data model is described in `data.py`.
|
||||
A simple Python implementation of BCF.
|
||||
Manipulation of BCF-XML is available via `bcfxml.py` and manipulation of BCF-API
|
||||
is available via `bcfapi.py`.
|
||||
|
||||
- BCF-XML version 2.1: Fully supported
|
||||
- BCF-API version 2.1: Not supported, will probably tackle this after BCF-API v3.0
|
||||
- BCF-XML version 3.0: Almost fully supported, except for the documents module
|
||||
- BCF-API version 3.0: Almost fully supported, except for two requests.
|
||||
It tries to support BCF-XML version 2.1 and 3.0, and BCF-API 3.0.
|

|
||||
## bcfxml
|
||||
|
||||
The `bcfxml` module lets you interact with the BCF-XML standard.
|
||||
The `bcfxml.load` function lets you read a BCF-XML file.
|
||||
It takes care of using the right version based on the "bcf.version" file contained in the BCF package.
|
||||
|
||||
The BCF files are extracted and parsed on-demand, and edits are stored in memory until you call the `save` method.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from bcf import bcfxml
|
||||
|
||||
from bcf.bcfxml import load
|
||||
|
||||
# Load a project
|
||||
bcfxml = bcfxml.load("/path/to/file.bcf")

||||

|
||||
project = bcfxml.project

## Todo List
|
||||
|
||||
The remaining work that needs to be completed in `bcfxml.py` and `bcfapi.py`.
|
||||
|
||||
- For `bcfxml.py` two xsds support is remaining namely 'documents.xsd`and`extensions.xsd`.
|
||||
- For `bcfapi.py` two requests that are `get_topics` and `get_comments` are remaining.
