Graph Rework - Hierarchy

Question

How is a Hierarchy represented in the Graph?

Proposal

I would Propose that a Hierarchy level is a node in the Graph. Turning a Hierarchy like journal.daily.2020.04.10 into the following Graph:

graph BT Journal-->|child|Daily Daily-->|child|2020 2020-->|child|04 04-->|child|10 Daily -->|parent| Journal 2020 -->|parent| Daily 04 -->|parent|2020 10 -->|parent|04

The Graph is just an example visualization as a flowchart. As you see, each Level Links to its parent and children, creating a BiDirectional Graph in doing so.

Additional Thoughts

But now we have Notes and Schemas that interact with the Hierarchy.

  • A note sits in the Graph at the Hierarchy level. Could a note contain its Hierarchy through its headings? Extending the Hierarchy, it sits inside with the headings it contains. read more
  • A schema describes a hierarchy to validate it. read more
