person

A person object (used for editors authors) contains the following fields (most of the fields are straightforward). Only the name field is required.

name

Name of the person

mailto

email address (turned into a mailto URL by respec)

url

home page of the author

company

company name

companyUrl

url of the company

w3cid

identifier of the persons’ W3C account, if applicable. (This id can be found through the “my profile” URL that will be redirected to the user’s page; the id appears in the address bar).

note

any text in this field will appear at the end of the person’s identification in parenthesis

extras

refers to an array of extras (see below) objects, displayed at the end of the person's identification

The “extras” are objects, each rendered as a separate span element, with the following fields:

name

the content of the resulting span; this can contain html elements

class

a value of the class attribute added to the enclosing span (can be used for styling)

href

if set, the content within the enclosing span is turned into an active link pointing to the value of href

A simple example:

{   
	name:       "Benjamin Young",
	company:    "John Wiley & Sons, Inc.",
	companyURL: "http://www.wiley.com/",
	mailto:     "byoung@bigbluehat.com",
	w3cid:      65468
}

A more complex example, using the extras field to include a reference to the person’s ORCID id (with a logo):

{              
	name:       "Ben De Meester",
	mailto:     "ben.demeester@ugent.be",
	company:    "Ghent University - iMinds - Data Science Lab",
	companyURL: "http://www.iminds.be/",
	url:        "http://users.ugent.be/~bjdmeest/",
	extras: [{
		name:  "<img src='figures/orcid_logo.png' alt='orcid logo'/>",
		href:  "http://orcid.org/0000-0003-0248-0987",
		class: "orcid"
	}],
	w3cid:      "73403"
}
