CouchDB #2

I am looking for a bare json implementation to store rdf-compatible data directly in CouchDB without having a parallel graph database. Could js3 work for that? What is the road map?

You'd be better taking a look at the bare bones rdf-interfaces, or the library built on top of it, namely rdf.js (both in my repo).

Hi Nathan.

Thanks for responding. I am sure you have very little time on your end. Ignore this if time commitments demand.

However, here I go. I have contacted Benoit C on the CouchDB side of things, and he says predictably that everything is up in the air as to consolidating json and rdf in order to store/use as couch.

I sent back this verbose partly rhetorical question to Benoit. Does your work head into a solution?

I want to:

(1) simply choose the correct Subject and Verb and Object forms for a given triplet relationship from an easily searched list of accepted ontologies,

(2) drag the 2 nodes and 1 edge to a JSON object, perhaps a template for an expected data structure, which will then

(3) automatically collapse either the Verb or the Subject to form a key-value pair, or a nested object, with the value being the literal or a reference in the Object position, and finally

(4) reduce or hide the IRIs involved so I am left with a bare property name and value which can immediately be coded for display and/or edit in a javascript front-end.
