Text

A value here may be written two ways, and both conform. A reader has to handle either.

• string, number, boolean — text, written bare rather than as a value object
• object — A literal that still knows its language and datatype.

Resource intended to be perceived visually and understood through the use of language in written or spoken form

BIBFRAME's definition of bf:Text.

Examples

"A short history of Sanskrit literature"

{
  "@value": "Труды Института Общц̳еи Физики",
  "@language": "ru-cyrl"
}

Trimmed from a real record rather than written for the occasion, and checked against this definition by tests/test_examples.py. A wrong example is worse than none, because it is the first thing anyone copies.

Properties

This definition names no properties of its own. Every property a record carries is still required to be an array, whatever it is called.

Every property here holds an array, and a property this definition does not name is still checked: it must be an array too. Naming a property buys a check on what its values look like, and nothing else.

The schema

https://blue-core-lod.github.io/bibframe-json/schema/dialect/Text.json is this definition on its own, and https://blue-core-lod.github.io/bibframe-json/schema/dialect.json is the whole shape with every definition inlined. They are checked against each other over the conformance corpus, so either is safe to depend on.
