Customized MARC exporter

By James Fournie

This requires Config::Simple, the package for that in Deb/Ubuntu is libconfig-simple-perl.

This script is the same as marc_export with new options:

--collapse_to_depth

	Collapses all your holdings below a certain depth to that depth's org unit shortname, for example if you had:

	CONS
	- SYS1
	   - BR1
	   - BR2

	If you set the depth at 1, all the $b in your holdings would show SYS1 as the shortname.

-- exclusion_ini

	Define a file to define custom exclusion rules.  See sitka.ini for Sitka's configuration for Outlook Online


Usage examples:

Pipe in something like:
psql -A -t -c 'select id from biblio.record_entry where not deleted'|
echo '101007645'

into:

./marc_export_custom --config /srv/openils/conf/opensrf_core.xml --items --location SITKA --collapse_to_depth 2 --exclusion_ini sitka.ini

Note: I have found adding --format XML makes it easier to debug what's going on
