MARCSubrecord structure

class marcxml_parser.structures.marcsubrecord.MARCSubrecord(val, i1, i2, other_subfields)

Bases: str

This class is used to store data returned from MARCXMLParser.get_datafield().

It may look like overshot, but when you are parsing the MARC XML, values from subrecords, you need to know the context in which the subrecord is put.

This context is provided by the i1/i2 values, but sometimes it is also useful to have access to the other subfields from this subrecord.

val

str – Value of subrecord.

ind1

char – Indicator one.

ind2

char – Indicator two.

other_subfields

dict – Dictionary with other subfields from the same subrecord.
