How to add data from another PDF in index?

How to add data from another PDF in index?

[Joel via ntg-context]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1265 bytes --]

I am making a textbook and workbook set.
I have this custom index using this code, in both the textbook and workbook:
%
\defineregister[learnedshort][compress=yes]
\setupregister[learnedshort][style=sansbold, textstyle=slanted, n=2, pagenumber=yes, indicator=no]
%
\defineregister[learnedlong][compress=yes]
\setupregister[learnedlong][style=sansbold, textstyle=slanted, n=2, pagenumber=yes, indicator=no]
%
\define[1]\learnedis{%
    \txt{} \getvalue{#1}
    \learnedshort{#1}
    \learnedlong{#1}
}
\define[1]\learned{%
    \learnedshort{#1}
    \learnedlong{\getvalue{#1}}
}

\starttext

\learnedis{blah blah}

\input knuth

\learnedis{some more}


    \startchapter[title=Standards]
        \placelearnedshort
    \stopchapter
    
\stoptext


My question is, can I have references to the Workbook page numbers in the textbook? And visa-versa?

For instance, the Textbook index currently looks like this:
-------------
Standards
blah blah 1
some more 2
--------------
With the data in the Workbook it might look like this:
 Standards
blah blah 1, WB: 1, 3-8

some more 2, WB: 8-9
yet more WB: 10, 12

--------------
Is this possible to merge index information like this?

We are currently working on fixing cross-references as well as shared
register information between products in a ConTeXt project structure.
Much is possible, but not all is fully worked out.

My current use is a multi-volume book, sharing Tables of Contents
between the two volumes. As a teaser,

    \placelist [part,chapter,section,subsection]
               [criterium=product,reference=VolumeII]

will include the TOC of VolumeII in product VolumeI.

Once we have this figured-out, I will have to create a wiki page.

Conserve energy! ;-)

Hans needs to confirm, "In the next update..."

Test files (MWEs):

% index-1.tex

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\starttext
    test \index{entry    WB.1} \page empty \page
    test \index{another  WB.1} \page empty \page
    test \index{onemore  WB.1} \page empty \page
    test \index{whatever WB.1} \page empty \page
    test \index{common}        \page empty \page
    \placeregister[index]
\stoptext


% index-2.tex

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\defineregister[xedni]

\useregister[workbook][index-1][index][WB ]

\starttext
    test \index{onemore TB.1} \page
    test \index{another TB.1} \page
    test \index{entry   TB.1} \page
    test \index{common}       \page
    test \xedni{onemore TB.2} \page
    test \xedni{another TB.2} \page
    test \xedni{entry   TB.2} \page
    test \xedni{common}       \page
    \placeregister[index,xedni,workbook]
\stoptext



This seems to work well - I have applied it to a long and complicated
multi-volume book project to great success!

We need to thank Hans for the quick implementation.

 Fantastic! Exactly what I needed. My publisher was gong to ask for the information of this index soon, so its great that already works!
