1. INTRODUCTION - WHAT IS SISU?

+ +


+ +SiSU + +is a framework for document structuring, publishing (in multiple open standard +formats) and search, comprising of: (a) a lightweight document structure and +presentation markup syntax; and (b) an accompanying engine for generating +standard document format outputs from documents prepared in sisu markup syntax, +which is able to produce multiple standard outputs (including the population of +sql databases) that (can) share a common numbering system for the citation of +text within a document. +


+ +SiSU is developed under an open source, software libre license (GPL3). +Its use case for development is work with medium to large document sets and +cope with evolving document formats/ representation technologies. Documents are +prepared once, and generated as need be to update the technical presentation or +add additional output formats. Various output formats (including search related +output) share a common mechanism for cross-output-format citation. +


+ +SiSU +both defines a markup syntax and provides an engine that produces open +standards format outputs from documents prepared with +SiSU +markup. From a single lightly prepared document 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 +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. Significantly SiSU markup is more sparse than html and -outputs which include html, EPUB, LaTeX, landscape and portrait pdfs, Open -Document Format (ODF), all of which can be added to and updated. SiSU is -also able to populate SQL type databases at an object level, which means +of the document.

-Source document preparation and output generation is a two step process: -(i) document source is prepared, that is, marked up in sisu markup syntax -and (ii) the desired output subsequently generated by running the sisu -engine against document source. Output representations if updated (in the -sisu engine) can be generated by re-running the engine against the prepared -source. Using SiSU markup applied to a document, SiSU custom builds (to -take advantage of the strengths of different ways of representing documents) -various standard open output formats including plain text, HTML, XHTML, -XML, EPUB, OpenDocument, LaTeX or PDF files, and populate an SQL database -with objects[^1] (equating generally to paragraph-sized chunks) so searches -may be performed and matches returned with that degree of granularity ( -e.g. your search criteria is met by these documents and at these locations -within each document). Document output formats share a common object numbering -system for locating content. This is particularly suitable for "published" -works (finalized texts as opposed to works that are frequently changed -or updated) for which it provides a fixed means of reference of content. - -

+ +In preparing a SiSU document you optionally provide semantic information related to the document in a document header, and in marking up the substantive text provide information on the structure of the document, primarily indicating heading levels and footnotes.

It is also easily -converted to other formats, which means documents prepared in SiSU can -be migrated to other document formats. Further security is provided by the -fact that the software itself, SiSU is available under GPL3 a licence that -guarantees that the source code will always be open, and free as in libre, -which means that that code base can be used, updated and further developed -as required under the terms of its license. Another challenge is to keep -up with a moving target. SiSU permits new forms of output to be added as -they become important, (Open Document Format text was added in 2006 when -it became an ISO standard for office applications and the archival of documents), -EPUB was introduced in 2009; and allows the technical representations existing -output to be updated (html has evolved and the related module has been -updated repeatedly over the years, presumably when the World Wide Web Consortium -(w3c) finalises html 5 which is currently under development, the html module -will again be updated allowing all existing documents to be regenerated -as html 5). -

5. Shortcuts, Shorthand for Multiple Flags

-
- -

-

- -
--update [filename/wildcard]
-
Checks existing file output and runs the flags -required to update this output. This means that if only html and pdf output -was requested on previous runs, only the -hp files will be applied, and -only these will be generated this time, together with the summary. This -can be very convenient, if you offer different outputs of different files, -and just want to do the same again. -

- -
-0 to -5 [filename  or  wildcard]
-
Default -shorthand mappings (for v3, note that the defaults can be changed/configured -in the sisurc.yml file): -

- -
-0
-
-NQhewpotbxXyYv [this  is  the  default  action  run - when  no options  are  give,  i.e.  on  ’sisu  [filename]’] -

-
-NQhewpotbxXyY -

- -
-4
-
-NQhewpotbxXDyY --update -

- -
-5
-
-NQhewpotbxXDyYv --update -


-add -v for verbose mode and -c to toggle color state, e.g. sisu -2vc [filename - or  wildcard] -


- -

consider -u for appended url info or -v for verbose output -

-
- -

5.1 Command Line -with Flags - Batch Processing

- -


-In the data directory run sisu -mh filename or wildcard eg. "sisu -h cisg.sst" -or "sisu -h *.{sst,ssm}" to produce html version of all documents. -


-Running sisu (alone without any flags, filenames or wildcards) brings up -the interactive help, as does any sisu command that is not recognised. Enter -to escape. -

6.1 Sisu Manual

- -


-The most up to date information on sisu should be contained in the sisu_manual, -available at: -


- <http://sisudoc.org/sisu/sisu_manual/ ->
+man pages are generated directly from sisu documents that are used to prepare +the sisu manual, the sources files for which are located within the +SiSU -


-The manual can be generated from source, found respectively, either within -the SiSU tarball or installed locally at: -


- ./data/doc/sisu/markup-samples/sisu_manual

6.2 Sisu Man Pages

- -


-If SiSU is installed on your system usual man commands should be available, -try: -


- man sisu
- -


-Most SiSU man pages are generated directly from sisu documents that are -used to prepare the sisu manual, the sources files for which are located -within the SiSU tarball at: -


- ./data/doc/sisu/markup-samples/sisu_manual
- -


Once installed, directory equivalent to: -


- /usr/share/doc/sisu/markup-samples/sisu_manual
+

+
+ +
  /usr/share/doc/sisu/markup-samples/sisu_manual +

+
-


Available man pages are converted back to html using man2html: -


- /usr/share/doc/sisu/html/
+

+
-


- ./data/doc/sisu/html
+

+ +

+  +

7.1 SUMMARY

+ +

+
+ +SiSU + +source documents are plaintext (UTF-8)[^11] files +

+
+ All paragraphs are separated by an empty line. -


+

+
+ Markup is comprised of: -


+

+
+ * at the top of a document, the document header made up of semantic meta-data -about the document and if desired additional processing instructions (such -an instruction to automatically number headings from a particular level -down) -


-* followed by the prepared substantive text of which the most important -single characteristic is the markup of different heading levels, which -define the primary outline of the document structure. Markup of substantive -text includes: -


- * heading levels defines document structure
- -


- * text basic attributes, italics, bold etc.
- -


- * grouped text (objects), which are to be treated differently, such as -code
- blocks or poems.
- -


- * footnotes/endnotes
- -


- * linked text and images
- -


- * paragraph actions, such as indent, bulleted, numbered-lists, etc.
- -

9.6.1 NAKED URLS WITHIN TEXT, DEALING WITH URLS

+ +

+
-


urls found within text are marked up automatically. A url within text is automatically hyperlinked to itself and by default decorated with angled -braces, unless they are contained within a code block (in which case they -are passed as normal text), or escaped by a preceding underscore (in which -case the decoration is omitted). -


-markup example: -

12. Sisu Filetypes

-
- -


-SiSU has plaintext and binary filetypes, and can process either type of -document. -

-

12.1 .sst .ssm .ssi Marked Up Plain Text

- -


-SiSU documents are prepared as plain-text (utf-8) files with SiSU markup. -They may make reference to and contain images (for example), which are -stored in the directory beneath them _sisu/image. SiSU plaintext markup -files are of three types that may be distinguished by the file extension -used: regular text .sst; master documents, composite documents that incorporate -other text, which can be any regular text or text insert; and inserts the -contents of which are like regular text except these are marked .ssi and -are not processed.
- -


-SiSU processing can be done directly against a sisu documents; which may -be located locally or on a remote server for which a url is provided. -


-SiSU source markup can be shared with the command: -


- sisu -s [filename]
- -

-

12.1.1 Sisu Text - Regular Files (.sst)

-

12.1.2 Sisu Master Files (.ssm)

- -


-Composite documents which incorporate other SiSU documents which may be -either regular SiSU text .sst which may be generated independently, or inserts -prepared solely for the purpose of being incorporated into one or more -master documents. -


-The mechanism by which master files incorporate other documents is described -as one of the headings under under SiSU markup in the SiSU manual. -

+ +

+
+ +SiSU + +documents are prepared as plain-text (utf-8) files with +SiSU + +markup. They may make reference to and contain images (for example), which are +stored in the directory beneath them _sisu/image. +SiSU + +plaintext markup files are of three types that may be distinguished by the file +extension used: regular text .sst; master documents, composite documents that +incorporate other text, which can be any regular text or text insert; and +inserts the contents of which are like regular text except these are marked +

+ +

+
+ +Composite documents which incorporate other +SiSU + +documents which may be either regular +SiSU + +text .sst which may be generated independently, or inserts prepared solely for +the purpose of being incorporated into one or more master documents. +

+
+ +The mechanism by which master files incorporate other documents is described as +one of the headings under under +SiSU + +markup in the +SiSU + +manual. +

+
+ Note: Master documents may be prepared in a similar way to regular documents, and processing will occur normally if a .sst file is renamed .ssm without requiring any other documents; the .ssm marker flags that the document may contain other documents. -


+

+
+ Note: a secondary file of the composite document is built prior to processing with the same prefix and the suffix ._sst [^18] -

12.1.3 SISU INSERT FILES (.SSI)

+ +

+
+ Inserts are documents prepared solely for the purpose of being incorporated -into one or more master documents. They resemble regular SiSU text files -except they are ignored by the SiSU processor. Making a file a .ssi file -is a quick and convenient way of flagging that it is not intended that -the file should be processed on its own. -

-

12.2 Sisupod, Zipped Binary Container -(sisupod.zip, .ssp)

- -


-A sisupod is a zipped SiSU text file or set of SiSU text files and any -associated images that they contain (this will be extended to include sound -and multimedia-files) -


-SiSU 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 +into one or more master documents.

+ +

+
+ +A sisupod is a zipped +SiSU + +text file or set of +SiSU + +text files and any associated images that they contain (this will be extended +to include sound and multimedia-files) +

+
+ +SiSU + +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. -


-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 SiSU documents. -


+

+
+ +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 +SiSU + +documents. +

-
+
-

-

14.1 Determining the Current Configuration

+

+  +

14.1 DETERMINING THE CURRENT CONFIGURATION

-


-Information on the current configuration of SiSU should be available with -the help command: -


- sisu -v
+

+
+ +Information on the current configuration of +SiSU + +should be available with the help command: +

+
+ +
  sisu -v +

+
-


which is an alias for: -


- sisu --help env
- -


-Either of these should be executed from within a directory that contains -sisu markup source documents. -

-

14.2 Configuration Files (config.yml)

- -


-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. -


-The SiSU configuration file is a yaml file, which means indentation is -significant. -


-SiSU resource configuration is determined by looking at the following files -if they exist: -


- ./_sisu/sisurc.yml
- -


- ~/.sisu/sisurc.yml
- -


- /etc/sisu/sisurc.yml
- -


+

+
+ +
  sisu --help env +

+
+ +Either of these should be executed from within a directory that contains sisu +markup source documents. +

+  +

14.2 CONFIGURATION FILES (CONFIG.YML)

+ +

+
+ +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. +

+
+ +The +SiSU + +configuration file is a yaml file, which means indentation is significant. +

+
+ +SiSU + +resource configuration is determined by looking at the following files if they +exist: +

+
+ +
  ./_sisu/sisurc.yml +

+
+ +
  ~/.sisu/sisurc.yml +

+
+ +
  /etc/sisu/sisurc.yml +

+
+ The search is in the order listed, and the first one found is used. -


+

+
+ In the absence of instructions in any of these it falls back to the internal program defaults. -


-Configuration determines the output and processing directories and the -database access details. -


- -

If SiSU is installed a sample sisurc.yml may be found in /etc/sisu/sisurc.yml - -

-

15. Skins

-
- -


-Skins modify the default appearance of document output on a document, directory, -or site wide basis. Skins are looked for in the following locations: -


- ./_sisu/skin
- -


- ~/.sisu/skin
- -


- /etc/sisu/skin
- -


-Within the skin directory are the following the default sub-directories -for document skins: -


- ./skin/doc
- -


- ./skin/dir
- -


- ./skin/site
- -


- -

A skin is placed in the appropriate directory and the file named skin_[name].rb - -


-The skin itself is a ruby file which modifies the default appearances set -in the program. -

-

15.1 Document Skin

- -


-Documents take on a document skin, if the header of the document specifies -a skin to be used. -


-

@skin: skin_united_nations
-
-

-

15.2 Directory Skin

- -


-A directory may be mapped on to a particular skin, so all documents within -that directory take on a particular appearance. If a skin exists in the -skin/dir with the same name as the document directory, it will automatically -be used for each of the documents in that directory, (except where a document -specifies the use of another skin, in the skin/doc directory). -


+

+
+ +Configuration determines the output and processing directories and the database +access details. +

+
+ +If +SiSU + +is installed a sample sisurc.yml may be found in /etc/sisu/sisurc.yml +

+  +

15. SKINS

+ +
+ +

+
+ +Skins modify the default appearance of document output on a document, +directory, or site wide basis. Skins are looked for in the following locations: +

  ~/.sisu/skin +

+
+ +
  /etc/sisu/skin +

+
+ +Within the skin directory + +are the following the default sub-directories for document skins: +

+
+ +
  ./skin/doc +

+
+ +
  ./skin/dir +

+
+ +
  ./skin/site +

+
+ +A skin is placed in the appropriate directory and the file named skin_[name].rb +

+
+ +The skin itself is a ruby file which modifies the default appearances set in +the program. +

+  +

15.1 DOCUMENT SKIN

+ +

+
+ +Documents take on a document skin, if the header of the document specifies a +skin to be used. +

+

+@skin: skin_united_nations
+
+ +

+  +

15.2 DIRECTORY SKIN

+ +

+
+ +A directory may be mapped on to a particular skin, so all documents within that +directory take on a particular appearance. If a skin exists in the skin/dir +with the same name as the document directory, it will automatically be used for +each of the documents in that directory, (except where a document specifies the +use of another skin, in the skin/doc directory). +

+
+ A personal habit is to place all skins within the doc directory, and symbolic links as needed from the site, or dir directories as required. -

17. ORGANISING CONTENT - DIRECTORY STRUCTURE AND MAPPING

+ +
+ +

+
+ +SiSU + +v3 has new options for the source directory tree, and output directory structures of which there are 3 alternatives. -

-

17.1 Document Source Directory

+

+  +

17.1 DOCUMENT SOURCE DIRECTORY

+ +

+
-

-
The document source directory is the directory in which sisu processing commands are given. 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. -

-

17.1.1 General Directories

17.2.1 Output Directory Root

+

+  +

17.2.1 OUTPUT DIRECTORY ROOT

+ +

+
-


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 +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) -


-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). The mapping means it is also -possible to place in the same output directory documents that are for organisational -purposes kept separately, for example documents on a given subject of two -different institutions may be kept in two different directories of the -same name, under a directory named after each institution, and these would -be output to the same output directory. Skins could be associated with each -institution on a directory basis and resulting documents will take on the -appropriate different appearance. -

-

17.2.2 Alternative Output Structures

- -


-There are 3 possibile output structures described as being, by language, -by filetype or by filename, the selection is made in sisurc.yml -


-

20. SISU SEARCH - INTRODUCTION

+ +
+ +

+
+ +SiSU + +output can easily and conveniently be indexed by a number of standalone indexing tools, such as Lucene, Hyperestraier. -


-Because the document structure of sites created is clearly defined, and -the text object citation system is available hypothetically at least, for -all forms of output, it is possible to search the sql database, and either -read results from that database, or just as simply map the results to the -html output, which has richer text markup. -


-In addition to this SiSU has the ability to populate a relational sql type -database with documents at an object level, with objects numbers that are -shared across different output types, which make them searchable with that -degree of granularity. Basically, your match criteria is met by these documents -and at these locations within each document, which can be viewed within -the database directly or in various output formats. -

-

21.1 Populating Sql Type Databases

- -


-SiSU feeds sisu markupd documents into sql type databases PostgreSQL[^20] -and/or SQLite[^21] database together with information related to document -structure. -


-This is one of the more interesting output forms, as all the structural -data of the documents are retained (though can be ignored by the user of -the database should they so choose). All site texts/documents are (currently) -streamed to four tables: -


- * one containing semantic (and other) headers, including, title, author,
- subject, (the Dublin Core...);
- -


- * another the substantive texts by individual "paragraph" (or object) --
- along with structural information, each paragraph being identifiable -by its
- paragraph number (if it has one which almost all of them do), and the
- substantive text of each paragraph quite naturally being searchable -(both in
- formatted and clean text versions for searching); and
- -


- * a third containing endnotes cross-referenced back to the paragraph from
- which they are referenced (both in formatted and clean text versions -for
- searching).
- -


- * a fourth table with a one to one relation with the headers table contains
- full text versions of output, eg. pdf, html, xml, and ascii.
- -


+

+
+ +Because the document structure of sites created is clearly defined, and the +text object citation system is available hypothetically at least, for all forms +of output, it is possible to search the sql database, and either read results +from that database, or just as simply map the results to the html output, which +has richer text markup. +

+
+ +This is one of the more interesting output forms, as all the structural data of +the documents are retained (though can be ignored by the user of the database +should they so choose). All site texts/documents are (currently) streamed to +four tables: +

  * another the substantive texts by individual "paragraph" (or object) - +
  along with structural information, each paragraph being identifiable by its +

  full text versions of output, eg. pdf, html, xml, and ascii. +

+
+ There is of course the possibility to add further structures. -


-At this level SiSU loads a relational database with documents chunked into -objects, their smallest logical structurally constituent parts, as text -objects, with their object citation number and all other structural information -needed to construct the document.

+ +

+  +

27. REMOTE OUTPUT

+ +
+ +

+
+ +Once properly configured +SiSU + +output can be automatically posted once generated to a designated remote +machine using either rsync, or scp. +

+
+ +In order to do this some ssh authentication agent and keychain or similar tool +will need to be configured. Once that is done the placement on a remote host +can be done seamlessly with the -r (for scp) or -R (for rsync) flag, which +may be used in conjunction with other processing flags, e.g. +

+

+sisu -3R sisu_remote.sst
+
+ +

+  +

27.1 COMMANDS

+ +

+

+
-R [filename/wildcard] + +
+copies sisu output files to remote host using rsync. This requires that +sisurc.yml has been provided with information on hostname and username, and +that you have your "keys" and ssh agent in place. Note the behavior of rsync +different if -R is used with other flags from if used alone. Alone the rsync +--delete parameter is sent, useful for cleaning the remote directory (when +-R is used together with other flags, it is not). Also see -r +

+

-r [filename/wildcard] + +

28. Remote Servers

-
- -


-As SiSU is generally operated using the command line, and works within -a Unix type environment, SiSU the program and all documents can just as -easily be on a remote server, to which you are logged on using a terminal, -and commands and operations would be pretty much the same as they would -be on your local machine. -

-

29. Quickstart - Getting Started Howto

-
- -

-

29.1 Installation

- -


-Installation is currently most straightforward and tested on the Debian -platform, as there are packages for the installation of sisu and all requirements -for what it does. -

-

29.1.1 Debian Installation

- -


-SiSU is available directly from the Debian Sid and testing archives (and -possibly Ubuntu), assuming your /etc/apt/sources.list is set accordingly: - -


-

  aptitude update

+  +

29.1 INSTALLATION

+ +

+
+ +Installation is currently most straightforward and tested on the +Debian + +platform, as there are packages for the installation of sisu and all +requirements for what it does. +

+  +

29.1.1 DEBIAN INSTALLATION

+ +

+
+ +SiSU + +is available directly from the +Debian + +Sid and testing archives (and possibly Ubuntu), assuming your +/etc/apt/sources.list is set accordingly: +

+

+  aptitude update
   aptitude install sisu-complete
-
-


+

+ +

+
+ The following /etc/apt/sources.list setting permits the download of additional markup samples: -


-

  #/etc/apt/sources.list
+

+

+  #/etc/apt/sources.list
+
+ deb http://ftp.fi.debian.org/debian/ unstable main non-free contrib +
+ deb-src http://ftp.fi.debian.org/debian/ unstable main non-free contrib +
- deb http://ftp.fi.debian.org/debian/ unstable main non-free contrib +
- deb-src http://ftp.fi.debian.org/debian/ unstable main non-free contrib +

+
-

-


The aptitude commands become: -


-

    aptitude update
-
+

+

+    aptitude update
+
aptitude install sisu-complete sisu-markup-samples -
-


-If there are newer versions of SiSU upstream of the Debian archives, they - -

will be available by adding the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list - -


-

#/etc/apt/sources.list
-  deb http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non-free
-  deb-src http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non-free
-
-

+ +

+
+ +repeat the aptitude commands +

+

+  aptitude update
   aptitude install sisu-complete sisu-markup-samples
-
-


+

+ +

+
+ Note however that it is not necessary to install sisu-complete if not all components of sisu are to be used. Installing just the package sisu will provide basic functionality. -

31. How Does Sisu Work?

-
- -


-SiSU markup is fairly minimalistic, it consists of: a (largely optional) -document header, made up of information about the document (such as when -it was published, who authored it, and granting what rights) and any processing -instructions; and markup within the substantive text of the document, which -is related to document structure and typeface. SiSU must be able to discern -the structure of a document, (text headings and their levels in relation -to each other), either from information provided in the document header -or from markup within the text (or from a combination of both). Processing -is done against an abstraction of the document comprising of information -on the document’s structure and its objects,[2] which the program serializes -(providing the object numbers) and which are assigned hash sum values based -on their content. This abstraction of information about document structure, -objects, (and hash sums), provides considerable flexibility in representing -documents different ways and for different purposes (e.g. search, document -layout, publishing, content certification, concordance etc.), and makes -it possible to take advantage of some of the strengths of established ways -of representing documents, (or indeed to create new ones). -

32. Summary of -Features

+
+ the solution arrived at is by extracting structural information about the document (about headings within the document) and by tracking objects (which are serialized and also given hash values) in the manner described. It makes possible representations that are quite different from those offered at -present. For example objects could be saved individually and identified -by their hashes, with an index of how the objects relate to each other -to form a document. -
