[VuFind-Tech] Translation map for location codes

[Josh S. <sto...@la...>]

Hello,  I was attempting to add an item location facet based on the 998a 
field.  Doing a simple map seems to work just fine.

998               |a la  |a lb  |a ld  |a lf  |a sg  |a nh  |a lh  |a 
lq  |a (5)lm  |a nt  |b 02-18-10  |c m  |d g  |e -  |f eng  |g cau  |h 
0  |i 14 

[marc_local.properties]
building = 998a, iiilocations.properties

[iiilocations.properties]
la = Ada
lg = Bagley
lv = Barnesville

The problem is that our system exports the 998 with a count of how many 
copies are at each location if there is more than one copy.  So the 
simple map doesn't see that location.  See the |a (5)lm above.

So I tried using the pattern-based translation map method as described 
in the solrMarc documentation at
http://code.google.com/p/solrmarc/wiki/ConfiguringSolrMarc#Defining_a_Pattern-Based_Translation_Map

But this doesn't seem to work when I try it.

[marc_local.properties]
building = 998a, iiilocations2.properties(port)

[iiilocations2.properties]
port.pattern_0 = la=>Ada
port.pattern_1 = lg=>Bagley
port.pattern_2 = lv=>Barnesville

Those values don't make it into the facet.  I think I'm reading the 
documentation correctly, the lookup table should match "la" anywhere in 
the field and insert Ada into the index.  Any suggestions?
Thanks
Josh
