Requirement

[4.7:102] The system shall be able to evaluate certain variables and counters at so-called "fields", for example on the title page or in the page header or footer. Supported variables shall include at least the current braille page number, the current print page number or range of print pages contained in the current braille page, the current volume number, the total number of volumes, the total number of braille pages or sheets contained in the current volume or book, the current chapter title, the current chapter number, and the date.

Done

• Braille page number in page header/footer
• Print page number (range) in page header/footer
• Current volume number
• Total number of volumes
• Current chapter title
• Current chapter number

Todo

• Optimizations of print page number range in page header/footer
  • Support scope "volume": https://github.com/joeha480/dotify/issues/184
  • Fix scope "page-content": https://github.com/joeha480/dotify/issues/150
  • Support scope "spread-content"?
• Total number of braille pages or sheets contained in the current volume or book: snaekobbi/dotify@3a25997
• Range of print pages contained in the current volume: https://github.com/joeha480/dotify/issues/184
  • Support scope "volume"
  • Enhance marker-reference: "start" attribute?
  • Allow marker-reference outside header and footer
• The date in various required formats

Tasks

• Implement variables for total number of braille pages or sheets contained in the current volume or book: Support variables $sheets-in-volume and $sheets-in-document brailleapps/dotify#198 (@bertfrees)
  • API change is accepted, but we're waiting with the implementation. The implementation will probably have to be redone after the volume breaking changes, and the time needed to make a release of the current implementation can be used for other things. (EDIT: we've done the implementation anyway even though it will have to be optimized or redone later)
