RelatonIec: retrieve IEC Standards for bibliographic use using the BibliographicItem model
RelatonIec is a Ruby gem that implements the IsoBibliographicItem model.
You can use it to retrieve metadata of IEC Standards from https://www.iec.ch, and access such metadata through the IecBibliographicItem
object.
Installation
Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:
gem 'relaton-iec'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install relaton-iec
Usage
Search for a standard using keywords
RelatonIec::IecBibliography.search(ref, year)
method returns hits collection. Each hit can be used to fetch a document.
-
ref
- a reference to search document -
year
- filter by year (optional)
require 'relaton_iec'
=> true
hit_collection = RelatonIec::IecBibliography.search("60050")
=> <RelatonIec::HitCollection:0x007fe0d7126f28 @ref=60050 @fetched=false>
hit_collection.first
=> <RelatonIec::Hit:0x000000000003e8 @text="60050" @fetched="false" @fullIdentifier="" @title="IEC 60050-05:1935">
item = hit_collection[2].fetch

Converting reference to URN
URN is a document identifier format. It has fields delimited by a colon. If any field is absent then its place is empty. All values are in lower-case.
URN structure:
urn:sdo_namespace:content_type_namespace:header:project_number:date:type:deliverable:language:relation:adjunct_type:adjunct_number:date[#/=]component_or_related_asset
-
prefix
-
urn
- value: urn -
sdo_namespace
- value: iec -
content_type_namespace
- value: std
-
-
base document information
-
header
- possible values are: iec, iso, iec-iso, iec-ieee, iec-itu, iec-astm -

Fetch data
This gem uses the Harmonized API as a data source. The following options are available:
- iec-harmonized-all
- fetches all the documents using the API
- iec-harmonized-latest
- fetches the latest documents using the API
The method RelatonIec::DataFetcher.new(source, output: "data", format: "yaml").fetch
fetches IEC documents from the dataset and saves them to the ./data
folder in YAML format.
Arguments:
-
source
- data source. Possible values:iec-harmonized-all
,iec-harmonized-latest
(defaultiec-harmonized-latest
). -
output
- folder to save documents (default './data'). -
format
- the format in which the documents are saved. Possible formats are:yaml
,xml
,bibxxml

Logging
RelatonIec uses the relaton-logger gem for logging. By default, it logs to STDOUT. To change the log levels and add other loggers, read the relaton-logger documentation.
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
Exceptional Citations
This gem retrieves bibliographic descriptions of ISO documents by doing searches on the ISO website, http://www.iso.org, and screenscraping the document that matches the queried document identifier. The following documents are not returned as search results from the ISO website, and the gem returns manually generated references to them.

IEV
: used in the metanorma-iso gem to reference Electropedia entries generically. Is resolved to an "all parts" reference to IEC 60050, which in turn is resolved into the specific documents cited by their top-level clause.
