In line 406 of flex2csv.py, you split an ID into sentence number (before period) and phrase number (after period). This fails if the sentence number had not been retrieved.

Be tolerant with records without sentence numbers. Users might still want to convert them.

As a quick fix, I used

    if "." in rec.get("Sentence_Number", "noperiod"):
        rec["Sentence_Number"], rec["Phrase_Number"] = rec["Sentence_Number"].split(".")
    return rec

but try/catch or checking for "Sentence_Number" in rec should also work

For the attached input XML file, enclitics are outputted twice in both the vernacular line (=da,=peyang) and the gloss line (=NOM,=COM).

ause=da=da	llɨg	kälsre=peyang=peyang
...
old woman=NOM=NOM	boy	small=COM=COM

Expected:

ause=da	llɨg	kälsre=peyang
old woman=NOM	boy	small=COM

In the XML file, we find two instances of "da", but only one "NOM" in uppercase, suggesting that indeed certain fields are outputted twice.

<morph type="enclitic" guid="d7f713e1-e8cf-11d3-9764-00c04f186933">
   <item type="txt" lang="kit">=da</item>
   <item type="cf" lang="kit">=da</item>
   <item type="gls" lang="en">=NOM</item>
   <item type="msa" lang="en">nominal enclitic</item>
</morph>
<item type="gls" lang="en">nom</item>
<item type="pos" lang="en">nominal enclitic</item>

In line 420 of flex2csv.py you have

...
   (f"segnum_{conf['gloss_lg']}_phrase", "Sentence_Number"),
...

I do not know how often there is a different "segnum" per language in flex files. In my case, the segnum language was set to French, and the value was "3.1", so not particularly localized. The program failed hard and produced no output.

I can of course prepare some yaml file to take care of this, but maybe one could in the case of only one segnum being present for a given sentence simply default to that segnum instead of requiring the language to be specified.

I try to convert a file in script.

from cldflex.flex2csv import convert
flexinputfilepath = "ende.xml"
corpus = convert(flexinputfilepath)

works fine, as far as I can tell. But I want CLDF, so I say

from cldflex.flex2csv import convert
flexinputfilepath = "ende.xml"
corpus = convert(flexinputfilepath,cldf=True)

This gives me

KeyError: 'Config /home/snordhoff/.config/cldf/catalog.ini has no entry for glottolog'

https://github.com/fmatter/cldflex tells me "pass a dict to the convert methods." I have tried

convert(filename, conf={'Glottocode':'abcd1234'},cldf=True)
convert(filename, conf={'glottolog':'abcd1234'},cldf=True)

, to no avail.

I have also created a yaml file with the content Glottocode: abcd1234, as asked for by https://github.com/fmatter/cldflex. However, the script complains that it does not find an ini file, and that there is no entry for "glottolog". So I wonder whether yaml or ini is required. In any case, I have also created an ini file in ~/.config.cldf. I give the content below

[glottolog]
Glottocode = abcd1234
glottolog = abcd1234

This does not help either.
Could you share information how to provide the relevant glotto-information, or, otherwise, how to bypass the test (I do not need the glotto information for my use case).
