Dependencies between gems unusable about pubid-cen HOT 10 CLOSED

@mico we must ensure that the whole pubid stack is useable and synchronized at once. We do need a way of ensuring this; so we should have some pubid gem, eg “pubid” that requires all pubid-* flavors.

from pubid-cen.

I don't think we need to have pubid gem that requires all the pubid-* gems. I need to test Relaton flavor gems with new Pubid versions, so I need to be able to manage the Pubid dependencies in each Relaton flavor gem separately.
I think using same major and minor version for all the Pubid gems will make updating gems more clear. We already use such version numeration in Relaton gems.
@mico it seems that paid-core is the root gem for all Pubid gems. Let's use same major and minor version as the pubid-core has, for all Pubid gems.

@opoudjis did we solve the problem by introducing https://github.com/metanorma/pubid ?

@andrew2net we need the all-encompassing pubid gem because we need a single place to lock versions for Metanorma. Both Metanorma and Relaton uses the pubid-* gems in different ways.

I am switching to pubid. @andrew2net I would rather you do the same, so that we avoid clashes.

Closing for now...

@opoudjis Relaton can't use pubid right now. There are many IDs that pubid unable to parse. Only relaton-iso uses pubid-iso at this time.

from pubid-cen.

@andrew2net OK, but could you at least set your gemspec to use pubid instead of pubid-iso? pubid includes pubid-iso, so you can still require pubid-iso on its own; and if you include it, you prevent our gems falling out of sync.

@andrew2net can you please help apply pubid one by one into Relaton? We need to make sure pubid works...

from pubid-cen.

@ronaldtse Artur started applying pubid into Relaton. I'll help him and review the code.
