Automating Book Edits

Automating Book Edits

When I published my book, I used NetBeans and Tomcat to automate some processes.

I created special tags for the index and the table of contents.

The IndexController determines what resources can be accessed. All additional resources can be accessed from the IndexController: preface, references, TOC, appendix, index pages for each chapter.

The anchor tags add information to a static list when the tag is used. The TOC tag writes the list to the TOC file.

The table of contents is generated when the TOC is requested from the IndexController:
http://localhost:8084/book/Index/TOC/

The index is processed
