SYNOPSIS
# From the command line
$ catmandu convert MARC --fix "marc_map('245a','title')" < /foo/bar.mrc
# From Perl
use Catmandu;
# import records from file
my $importer = Catmandu->importer('MARC',file => '/foo/bar.mrc');
my $fixer = Catmandu->fixer("marc_map('245a','title')");
$importer->each(sub {
my $item = shift;
...
});
# or using the fixer
$fixer->fix($importer)->each(sub {
my $item = shift;
printf "title: %s\n" , $item->{title};
});
DESCRIPTION
Catmandu::Importer::MARC is a Catmandu::Iterable to import MARC records from an external source. When given an input file an Catmandu::Iterable is create generating items as perl HASH-es containing two keys:
'_id' : the system identifier of the record (usually the 001 field)
'record' : an ARRAY of ARRAYs containing the record data
