This is great, because I want localizations.

TBH I was struggling to figure out exactly what that was trying to do (no
offense, Tobias or whoever wrote it).

Are the set{Book,Chapter,Verse} functions zero-indexed, and if so, do the
get{Book,Chapter,Verse} functions reflect that? (Excuse my Bash scripting š)

Thank you Tobias,

Hi Loren,
This is how Iām doing it in node-sword-interface.
1) Getting the list of books in a module
vector<string> ModuleHelper::getBookList(string moduleName)
https://github.com/ezra-project/node-sword-interface/blob/master/src/sword_backend/module_helper.cpp#L70
A small comment, there are different styles of book names:
VerseKey::getBookName()
VerseKey::getBookAbbrev()
VerseKey::getOSISBookName()
The first two are localized to whatever language you have set for the engine,
e.g.,
LocaleMgr::getSystemLocaleMgr()->setDefaultLocaleName("fr");
2) Getting a map with the number of verses per chapter per book
std::map<std::string, std::vector<int>> getBibleChapterVerseCounts(std::string
moduleName);
https://github.com/ezra-project/node-sword-interface/blob/master/src/sword_backend/module_helper.cpp#L92
I am note sure I condone this behavior here :) If you found a need to do
something like this because you couldn't easily use the suggestions below,
please let me know and maybe we can fix something or extend functionality to
meet your needs.
If you ever want to know how many Books, Chapters, Verses, etc. are available
in a reference system, these should serve that purpose:
VerseKey::getTestamentMax()
VerseKey::getBookMax(), once you set the testament
VerseKey::getChapterMax(), once you set the book
VerseKey::getVerseMax(), once you set the chapter
Please remember that each module might give different results, and creating a
VerseKey object without specifying a reference system will create a KJV
VerseKey. If you want the module-specific reference system, it is always good
to do as your first example does and grab the current key, or use
SWModule::createKey() to create a key specialized for the module-- which you'll
need to delete when you are done using.
Hope this helps. Thanks for the comments!
There's an example here which goes into some of this and covers other things
like VerseKey ranges:
http://crosswire.org/svn/sword/trunk/examples/classes/lastVerseInChapter.cpp
http://crosswire.org/svn/sword/trunk/examples/classes/verseranges.cpp

Best regards,
Tobias

<computersemiexp...@outlook.com<mailto:computersemiexp...@outlook.com>>:
I was digging into the docs and found that a VerseKey can give some info about
the book and chapter that it is in, and the numbers of books and chapters. This
could be useful to me because I want to get a list of the books in a module,
then load the number of chapters for the book and the number of verses for the
selected chapter on-demand. However, I'm not completely sure how I should be
doing this. Would the following pseudo-code be appropriate, or is there a
different method that I should be using?
m_books = someVar; // what should this do?
key.setBook(m_books.currentIndex());
m_chapters = key.getChapterMax();
m_verses = key.getVerseMax();
setCurrentRef(m_books[index], m_chapters[index], m_verses[index]);
I know that this isn't great pseudo code but it's what I came up with.
Thanks,
Loren
