[deepamehta-devel] multi-lingual topic values

[mre at deepamehta.de]

hey there,

i was thinking about how to best model multi-lingual (composite) values
for, e.g. "ingredients" of a "recipe" [1] in deepamehta4.

Optimal would be, querying wise, from any given topic id i can load _just_
the child-topics (of e.g. valueTypeUrI) related via a specific
language-code.

The requirements i see are twofold:
1 loading just those related topics given an addtional (iso-language-code)
key
  e.g. 'topic.getRelatedTopics("..aggregation", "..default", "..default",
valueTypeUri, "DE")'
  background: loading child-topic values for 200 languages instead of the
1 needed seems very much overhead

2 staying flexible: introducing new iso-language-codes to query as they
come by / are created.

Am i correct that (currently) the only way to fetch the child-topics 
(related to my topic via a specific "language-code"/value) is modelling
this "language code value" as a facet type (which then relate to my
valueTypeUri)?

And what would you think about the going for the other option, to extend
the query-power by a 'getRelatedTopicsByChildTopicValue()' topic api call
(similar to the one sketched above) in contrast to building on the facet
api for multi-lingual values?


Thanks for your thoughts & Cheers!
