Make in-memory indexed graphs more generic #64

Closed pchampin closed 7 months ago

pchampin commented 4 years ago

Following the discussion in #55, I realize that some people might be interested in reusing the implementation of graph::inmem or dataset::inmem, even for types that go beyond the RDF model (even the generalized on that Sophia supports). For example:

Actually, these implementations are rather agnostic to the kind of terms they handle, as internally they are just represented by integer indexes. Possibly, this could be factored out in a separate crate (sophia_igraph?). And of course, if (some of) the terms they contain can be seen as RDF terms, they could in turn implement the Graph/Dataset traits...

@BruJu what do you think?

As a first step I refactored the core of TermIndexMap into a new crate indexed-hash-set that basically provides the same core functionality. With this I'll continue my work on #89.

closing this old issue, as my priority with Sophia is less to provide new implementations than to provide good traits that existing implementations can implement, to increase interoperability.

A generic "indexed graph" crate would be a nice thing to have, but it would be better suited outside Sophia.
