TMG

TMG Database importer (reads Backup SQZ )

Information related to TMG Import 7591

My attempt to create an importer for TMG

Prerequisites

  • Ethan Furman's dbf-0.96.002 - First release to support python 2.x and 3.x - Allows reading/writing dBase, FoxPro, and Visual FoxPro .dbf files (including memos)
  • configparser - library brings the updated configparser from Python 3.5 to Python 2.6-3.5. (Instead of having custom code to read TMG's text files)

Gramps Enhancements to match TMG behavior

Only if it makes sense. eg: no matching ability in Gramps.

  • 4970 Showing TMG ID# in Gramps
  • Possibly modify or have an additional Jump key to select an individual by TMG_ID#

Gramplets inspired by TMG's View/Windows

  • TMG Mainviews (=Details Window)
    • (Yes) TMG Person View - Good overview of all Tags and events related to a person (No real equivalent without running a report!)
    • (No ) TMG Family View - similar to a family group sheet (Simpler than Gramps Relationship Category View)
    • (No ) TMG Tree View - Graphical: pedigree-type display (Simpler than Gramps Charts Category > Pedigree view)
  • TMG's Additional windows
    • (?) TMG Flags Window -
    • ( ) TMG Children Window -
    • ( ) TMG Siblings Window -
    • (Yes) TMG Image Window - Displays Primary Exhibit only
    • ( ) TMG Associates Window -
    • (?) TMG Focus Group Window - collects groups of people into list that you can save and reuse in filters.
  • TMG Picklist (Searching)
    • (?) TMG Simple Picklist
    • (?) TMG Expanded Picklist
    • (?) TMG Project Explorer - (Advanced)
  • TMG Masterlist (Gramps individual views are basically these but open the whole time)
    • TMG Master Source List (All sources recorded) -> (Can also access the "Source definition" screen)
    • TMG Master Repository List (Where source found)
    • TMG Master Place List (All places in Dataset/Project)
    • TMG Master Event List (All events contained in tags)
    • TMG Master Tag Type List (All Tag Types in alphabetical list)
    • TMG Master Style List (All name & place styles)
  • TMG Logs
    • ( ) TMG Research Log
    • ( ) TMG Exhibit Log
  • TMG Other features
    • (Yes) Accents (Ability to color a TMG tag/person that meets a condition)
  • TMG does not have these exactly but would be handy
    • (###) Master People List - "TMG Picklist"'s above is almost equivalent.
