-SISU - FAQ - FREQUENTLY ASKED/ANSWERED QUESTIONS, RALPH AMISSAH
-<p> 1. FAQ -
-FREQUENTLY ASKED/ANSWERED QUESTIONS
-<p> 1.1 WHY ARE URLS PRODUCED WITH THE
--V (AND -U) FLAG THAT POINT TO A WEB SERVER ON PORT 8081?
-<p> Try the following
-rune:
-<p> * sisu -W
-<p> This should start the ruby webserver. It should be done
-after having produced some output as it scans the output directory for
-what to serve.
-<p> 1.2 I CANNOT FIND MY OUTPUT, WHERE IS IT?
-<p> The following
-should provide help on output paths:
-<p> * sisu --help env
-<p> * sisu -V &nbsp;[same
-&nbsp;as &nbsp;the &nbsp;previous &nbsp;command]
-<p> * sisu --help directory
-<p> * sisu --help path
-<p> *
-sisu -U &nbsp;[filename]
-<p> * man sisu
-<p> 1.3 I DO NOT GET ANY PDF OUTPUT, WHY?
-<p>
-<b>SiSU</b> produces LaTeX and pdflatex is run against that to generate pdf files.
-
-<p> If you use <b>Debian</b> the following will install the required dependencies
-
-<p> * aptitude install sisu-pdf
-<p> the following packages are required: tetex-bin,
-tetex-extra, latex-ucs
-<p> 1.4 WHERE IS THE LATEX (OR SOME OTHER INTERIM) OUTPUT?
-
-<p> Try adding -M (for maintenance) to your command flags, e.g.:
-<p> * sisu -HpMv
-&nbsp;[filename]
-<p> this should result in the interim processing output being
-retained, and information being provided on where to find it.
-<p> * sisu --help
-
-<p>directory
-<p> * sisu --help path
-<p> should also provide some relevant information
-as to where it is placed.
-<p> 1.5 WHY ISN&rsquo;T SISU MARKUP XML
-<p> I worked with text
-and (though I find XML immensely valuable) disliked noise ... better to sidestep
-the question and say:
-<p> <b>SiSU</b> currently accurately, converts from three
-forms of XML to native <b>SiSU</b> markup for processing. The three types correspond
-to SAX (structure described), DOM (structure embedded, whole document must
-be read before structure is correctly discernable) and node based (a tree)
-forms of XML document structure representation. Problem is I use them very
-seldom and check that all is as it should be with them seldom, so I would
-not be surprised if something breaks there, but as far as I know they are
-working. I will check and add an XML markup help page before the next release.
-
-<p>There already is a bit of information in the man page under the title <b>SiSU</b>
-
-<p>VERSION CONVERSION
-<p> sisu --to-sax &nbsp;[filename/wildcard]<br>
-
-<p> sisu --to-dom &nbsp;[filename/wildcard]<br>
-
-<p> sisu --to-node &nbsp;[filename/wildcard]<br>
-
-<p> The XML should be well formed... must check, but lacks sensible headers.
-Suggestions welcome as to what to make of them. &nbsp;[For &nbsp;the &nbsp;present &nbsp;time I
-&nbsp;am &nbsp;satisfied &nbsp;that &nbsp;I &nbsp;can &nbsp;convert &nbsp;(both &nbsp;ways) &nbsp;between &nbsp;3 forms &nbsp;of &nbsp;XML &nbsp;representation
-&nbsp;and <b>&nbsp;SiSU</b> &nbsp;markup].
-<p> sisu --from-xml2sst &nbsp;[filename/wildcard]<br>
-
-<p> 1.6 LATEX CLAIMS TO BE A DOCUMENT PREPARATION SYSTEM FOR HIGH-QUALITY TYPESETTING.
-CAN THE SAME BE SAID ABOUT SISU?
-<p> <b>SiSU</b> is not really about type-setting.
-
-<p> LaTeX is the ultimate computer instruction type-setting language for paper
-based publication.
-<p> LaTeX is able to control just about everything that
-happens on page and pixel, position letters kerning, space variation between
-characters, words, paragraphs etc. formula.
-<p> <b>SiSU</b> is not really about type-setting
-at all. It is about a lightweight markup instruction that provides enough
-information for an abstraction of the documents structure and objects,
-from which different forms of representation of the document can be generated.
-
-<p> <b>SiSU</b> with very little markup instruction is able to produce relatively
-high quality pdf by virtue of being able to generate usable default LaTeX;
-it produces populates an SQL database in a useful way with the document
-in object sized chunks and its meta-data. But <b>SiSU</b> works on an abstraction
-of the document&rsquo;s structure and content and custom builds suitable uniform
-output. The html for browser viewing and pdf for paper viewing/publishing
-are rather different things with different needs for layout - as indeed
-is what is needed to store information in a database in searchable objects.
-
-<p> The pdfs or html produced for example by open office based on open document
-format and other office/word processor suits usually attempt to have similar
-looking outputs - your document rendered in html looks much the same, or
-in pdf... sisu is less this way, it seeks to have a starting point with as
-little information about appearance as possible, and to come up with the
-best possible appearance for each output that can be derived based on this
-minimal information.
-<p> Where there are large document sets, it provides
-consistency in appearance in each output format for the documents.
-<p> The
-excuse for going this way is, it is a waste of time to think much about
-appearance when working on substantive content, it is the substantive content
-that is relevant, not the way it looks beyond the basic informational tags
-- and yet you want to be able to take advantage of as many useful different
-ways of representing documents as are available, and for various types
-of output to to be/look as good as it can for each medium/format in which
-it is presented, (with different mediums having different focuses) and
-<b>SiSU</b> tries to achieve this from minimal markup.
-<p> 1.7 HOW DO I CREATE GIN
-
-<p>OR GIST INDEX IN POSTGRESQL FOR USE IN SISU
-<p> This at present needs to
-be done alter the sample search form. The following is a helpful response
-from one of the contributors of GiN to Postgresql Oleg Bartunov 2006-12-06:
-
-<p> I have tsearch2 slides which introduces tsearch2 &lt;<a href='http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/wiki/tsearch2slides'>http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/wiki/tsearch2slides</a>
-&gt;
-
-<p> FTS in PostgreSQL is provided by tsearch2, which should works without
-any indices (GiST or GIN) ! Indices provide performance, not functionality.
-
-<p> In your example I&rsquo;d do ( simple way, just for demo):
-<p> <b>0.</b> compile, install
-
-<p>tsearch2 and load tsearch2 into your database
-<p> cd contrib/tsearch2;
-make&amp;&amp;make&amp;&amp;install&amp;&amp;make installcheck; psql DB &amp;lt;<br>
- tsearch2.sql<br>
-
-<p> <b>1.</b> Add column fts, which holds tsvector
-<p> alter table documents add
-column fts tsvector;<br>
-
-<p> <b>2.</b> Fill fts column
-<p> update document set fts = to_tsvector(clean);<br>
-
-<p> <b>3.</b> create index - just for performance !
-<p> create index fts_gin_idx
-on document using gin(fts);<br>
-
-<p> <b>4.</b> Run vacuum
-<p> vacuum analyze document;<br>
-
-<p> That&rsquo;s all.
-<p> Now you can search:
-<p> select lid, metadata_tid, rank_cd(fts,
-q,2)as rank from document, plainto_tsquery(&rsquo;markup syntax&rsquo;) q where q @@
-fts order by rank desc limit 10;
-<p> 1.8 WHERE IS VERSION 1.0?
-<p> <b>SiSU</b> works
-pretty well as it is supposed to. Version 1.0 will have the current markup,
-and directory structure. At this point it is largely a matter of choice
-as to when the name change is made.
-<p> The feature set for html,[^1] LaTeX/pdf
-and opendocument is in place. XML, and plaintext are in order.
-<p> html and
-
-<p>LaTeX/pdf may be regarded as reference copy outputs
-<p> With regard to the
-populating of sql databases (postgresql and sqlite), there is a bit to
-be done.
-<p> We are still almost there.
