[daisy] LinksFrom Navigation document

[Victor Oomens]

Hi Bruno,

Ok, thanks.

Can you recommend me on the following: I would like to create a document
task to add documents from a TOC with queries to another collection. The
only thing I can come up with is a solution in javascript, which accesses
the repository, iterates over a navigation document and adds each document
to the assigned collection. I'm using Daisy 1.4.1.

Victor.

Link extraction should also work for navigation documents (and also for
book definitions). You could check if the navigation document is listed
with the referers of the documents that are included in the navigation.

This hasn't always been the case, but it's already in there for a long
time, IIRC at least version 1.3 or possibly earlier.

If you're using Daisy 1.4 or 1.5, you could verify in the admin screen
for the "NavigationDescription" part that the "Link extractor" is set to
navigation.
BTW, this only works for documents linked from the navigation, documents
included by a query in the navigation are of course not handled by the
link extraction.
