Research direction

Start at client/data.coffee#L58 and compare its graph assumptions with the linked graph_json_examples, Linkmap stream, and D3 conventions. Clarify whether the goal is to document the existing nodes/links model or design JSON-LD and semantic support; the issue currently provides no concrete completion test.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The README states we can also fearlessly drop a JSON representation of a graph.

data.coffee#L58 makes some assumptions about how such a graph should be modeled.

By looking into some almereyda/graph_json_examples I've found that wiki goes different directions here:

  • The Websocket stream of the Linkmap Plugin submits a graph similiar to the Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) as proposed on stackoverflow as a node list with containing edges lists.
  • Yet the D3 DAG generator I've come across stores nodes and edges.
  • This plugin calls them nodes and links.

Would it make sense here to upgrade the graph support of this component to JSON-LD, to follow a spec, and start implementing stronger Semantics?
