Hi all, I built a webpage for browsing CSL style metadata, based on the DataTables jQuery library (http://www.datatables.net/). The files are in the https://github.com/cpina/csls-styles-report repo. You can see a screengrab of the webpage at http://i.imgur.com/6RGpJo8.png
The script, "style-metadata-export.py", uses lxml for XML parsing (http://lxml.de/), and outputs to "style-metadata.json". You can see the results in "style-metadata.html". I committed a small sample JSON file so you can play with the table without running the script (the JSON file for the entire style repo is 1.1 MB). The current webpage loads for me in Safari and Firefox, but not in Chrome due to some permission issue with loading the locale JSON file via AJAX. It's still a bit basic, and I haven't yet implemented features like dropdown menus (http://www.datatables.net/examples/api/multi_filter_select.html), the ability to hide/show columns (http://www.datatables.net/examples/api/show_hide.html), expand rows to show more data (http://datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/api/row_details.html), or regex searching (http://www.datatables.net/examples/api/regex.html), that could make the webpage more powerful. If people are interested, perhaps Carles could hook it up to "styles-distribution" and host it at http://pinux.info at some point. I already found the first errors to fix after a brief look through the data: the "Durchstarten" styles all have a trailing double quote mark in the title (https://zotero.org/styles?q=durchstarten), and "Universität Bremen - Institut für Politikwissenschaft" doesn't specify the style's default-locale in the title, even though it's set to "de-DE" (https://zotero.org/styles?q=bremen). So I imagine it can help us maintain the styles repo. DataTables seems quite snappy, and it allows for server-side processing too. Dan, perhaps it could be used to speed up https://zotero.org/styles as well?
