Biber::DataModel(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation NAME Biber::DataModel - Biber::DataModel objects new Initialize a Biber::DataModel object We are passing in an array of datamodels as there may be more than one in tool mode - the one from biber-tool.conf and modifications in a user .conf We first merge these before extracting data. In case of conflicts, user .conf datamodel takes precedence. get_outcase Returns the original datamodel field/entrytype case for output constants Returns array ref of constant names get_constant_type Returns a constant type get_constant_value Returns a constant value is_multiscript Returns boolean to say if a field is a multiscript field fieldtypes Returns array ref of legal fieldtypes datatypes Returns array ref of legal datatypes is_field Returns boolean to say if a field is a legal field. Allows for fields with meta markers whose marked field should be in the datamodel. entrytypes Returns array ref of legal entrytypes is_entrytype Returns boolean to say if an entrytype is a legal entrytype is_field_for_entrytype Returns boolean to say if a field is legal for an entrytype entrytype_is_skipout Returns boolean depending on whether an entrytype is to be skipped on output get_fields_of_fieldtype Retrieve fields of a certain biblatex fieldtype from data model Return in sorted order so that bbl order doesn't change when changing .bcf. This really messes up tests otherwise. get_fields_of_fieldformat Retrieve fields of a certain format from data model Return in sorted order so that bbl order doesn't change when changing .bcf. This really messes up tests otherwise. get_fields_of_datatype Retrieve fields of a certain biblatex datatype from data model Return in sorted order so that bbl order doesn't change when changing .bcf. This really messes up tests otherwise. get_fields_of_type Retrieve fields of a certain biblatex type from data model Return in sorted order so that bbl order doesn't change when changing .bcf. This really messes up tests otherwise. is_fields_of_type Returns boolean to say if the given fieldtype/datatype/format is a valid combination get_fieldtype Returns the fieldtype of a field get_datatype Returns the datatype of a field get_fieldformat Returns the format of a field get_dm_for_field Returns the fieldtype, datatype and format of a field field_is_fieldtype Returns boolean depending on whether a field is a certain biblatex fieldtype field_is_datatype Returns boolean depending on whether a field is a certain biblatex datatype field_is_type Returns boolean depending on whether a field is a certain biblatex fieldtype and datatype field_is_nullok Returns boolean depending on whether a field is ok to be null field_is_skipout Returns boolean depending on whether a field is to be skipped on output check_mandatory_constraints Checks constraints of type "mandatory" on entry and returns an arry of warnings, if any check_conditional_constraints Checks constraints of type "conditional" on entry and returns an arry of warnings, if any check_data_constraints Checks constraints of type "data" on entry and returns an array of warnings, if any check_datatypes Checks datatypes of fields against fields. These are not explicit constraints in the datamodel but rather checks of the datatype of fields in the datamodel. dump Dump Biber::DataModel object generate_bltxml_schema Generate a RelaxNG XML schema from the datamodel for BibLaTeXML datasources generate_bblxml_schema Generate a RelaxNG XML schema from the datamodel for bblXML output AUTHORS Philip Kime "" BUGS Please report any bugs or feature requests on our Github tracker at .
