+ # Jekyll Relationships
2
+
3
+ Plugin for Jekyll that allows collection documents to specify their relationships with each other, via many-to-many links. These can form trees, graphs or relational-database-like structures. Exposes the relationships in each document's frontmatter.
4
+
5
+ ## Configuration
6
+
7
+ How documents link to each other is specified by configuration.
8
+
9
+ ```yaml
10
+ relationships:
11
+ enabled: true # set to false for global disable
12
+
13
+ # The relationships that exist on this site
14
+ relationships: # array, see Relationships below
15
+
16
+ # The frontmatter keys that specify relationships - global defaults
17
+ frontmatter: # see Frontmatter below
18
+ base: relationships # prepend to other keys
19
+ primary: nil # use Document path as primary key
20
+ foreign: <collection> # because of base, treated as `relationships.<foreign>`
21
+ output: nil # see Output below
22
+
23
+ # Modify the shape of the foreign reference object
24
+ references: # see References below
25
+ id: <key>
26
+ collection: <collection>
27
+ page: <page>
28
+
29
+ # Settings for tree relationships
30
+ tree: # see Trees below
31
+ frontmatter:
32
+ parent: parent # which keys specify a single parent
33
+ child: child # which keys specify a single child
34
+ parents: parents # which keys specify multiple parents
35
+ children: children # which keys specify multiple children
36
+ ancestors: ancestors # key on which to set ancestors
37
+ descendants: descendants # key on which to set descendants
38
+ max:
39
+ parents: -1 # max parents per item (-1 = unlimited)
40
+ children: -1 # max children per item
41
+ url: false # infer parent by item url
42
+
43
+ # Global pruning settings
44
+ prune: # see Pruning below
45
+ combine: true
46
+ iterations: 10
47
+ tree:
48
+ orphans: grandparents
49
+
50
+ # What should happen to multiple links to the same thing?
51
+ multiple: drop # see Multiple Links below
52
+
53
+ # Override keywords in case they are a clash with your collection/frontmatter names
54
+ keywords: # see Keywords below
55
+ ```
56
+
57
+ The values shown above are the built-in defaults that will apply even if you don't specify these settings at all.
58
+
59
+ Throughout the config, any item which can be an array may also be given as a single string (implicitly a one-item array) or a comma-delimited string (will be split to an array).
60
+
61
+
62
+ ## Relationships
63
+
64
+ `relationships` is an array specifying the relationships on this site. Example:
65
+
66
+ ```yaml
67
+ relationships:
68
+ # categories and tags are each in a tree
69
+ - from: categories, tags
70
+ to: self
71
+ mode: parent
72
+ # products
73
+ - from: products
74
+ to: categories, tags
75
+ frontmatter: # override for this relationship
76
+ base: data # override `base` for this `frontmatter`
77
+ foreign: <collection>, links # find references at `data.categories`, `data.tags` and `data.links`.
78
+ - from: products
79
+ to: # array form
80
+ - collection: products # hash form
81
+ frontmatter: # override frontmatter for this `to` target
82
+ foreign: body.subproducts
83
+ - services # regular string form
84
+ - collection: product-types
85
+ mode: tree # override `mode` for this `to` target
86
+ mode: bidirectional
87
+ ```
88
+
89
+ Each array item has:
90
+
91
+ * `from` (required): one or more collection labels.
92
+ * `to` (rquired): one or more collection labels.
93
+ * Each item in `from` is related to each item in `to`.
94
+ * Instead of a collection label a keyword can be used:
95
+ * `self`: each item in `from` relates "to itself". E.g. if an item in `from` is `products` then `self` means `products` for that item i.e. products can relate to other products.
96
+ * `others`: each item in `from` relates to any of the other items besides itself
97
+ * `all`: each item in `from` relates to any of those items including itself
98
+ * Instead of a string a hash can be used:
99
+ * `collection`: the string as before
100
+ * Hash can also specify a local `frontmatter` and/or `mode` override
101
+ * `frontmatter` (optional): the values set in global config apply to all relationships by default, but you can override specific properties of it per relationship by setting them here.
102
+ * `mode`
103
+ * `link` (default): `from` links to `to`.
104
+ * `parent`/`child`: items in `from` can have items in `to` as their parent/child (which also implies the reverse relationship). See [Trees](#trees) below.
105
+ * `bidirectional`: like `link`, but whenever a link is added, it is also added to the target in the reverse direction automatically.
106
+ * `prune` (optional): remove documents whose finally-resolved relationship count for this entry is too low. See [Pruning](#pruning) below.
107
+
108
+ Duplicate or clashing relationship definitions will throw an error. A bidirectional relationship "uses up" the reverse definition, so "from A to B, bidirectional" followed by a "from B to A, link/bidirectional" definition is a duplicate and throws an error.
109
+
110
+ The defined relationships will be processed and resolved. This will:
111
+
112
+ * Ensure arrays of references are complete
113
+ * Upgrade the references between documents to richer objects
114
+ * Protect against invalid or duplicate references (A can't link to B twice in the same array)
115
+
116
+
117
+ ## Frontmatter
118
+
119
+ Relationships between documents are specified by values in each document's frontmatter. Somewhere in the frontmatter of documents you must have:
120
+
121
+ * A "Primary Key": a value that identifies this document
122
+ * A "Foreign Key": a value that identifies another document's primary key
123
+
124
+ You specify where in the frontmatter these primary/foreign keys exist, using:
125
+
126
+ ```yaml
127
+ frontmatter:
128
+ primary: id # the frontmatter key `id` holds the primary key value
129
+ foreign: <collection> # <collection> is replaced by the label of a `to` collection. The frontmatter key that matches this label holds a reference to a document in that collection.
130
+ ```
131
+
132
+ * Both keys can be specified with dot-notation to access deeply nested keys, e.g. `meta.details.relationships.id`.
133
+ * `<collection>` is valid only within `foreign`. Example:
134
+
135
+ ```yaml
136
+ relationships:
137
+ - from: products
138
+ to: categories, tags
139
+ frontmatter:
140
+ foreign: links.<collection>_links
141
+ ```
142
+
143
+ In `products` documents, this would find links to `categories` at `links.categories_links` and links to `tags` at `links.tags_links`.
144
+ * `foreign` can be an array of frontmatter locations where references will be read. These will all be accumulated.
145
+
146
+ ### Output
147
+
148
+ Relationships are read from the keys you give, and processed. Processing may modify the relationships, add/removing some. This will be written back into the frontmatter at the first location defined in `foreign`. However, if you want to leave this alone, or if the foreign location spans across an array and so can't be written back to, a separate key `output` gives the frontmatter location where you want the final set of relationships to be written. It may contain `<collection>`. Example:
149
+
150
+ ```yaml
151
+ relationships:
152
+ frontmatter:
153
+ base: ''
154
+ primary: meta.id
155
+ foreign: data.<collection>
156
+ output: meta.relationships.<collection>
157
+ ```
158
+
159
+ ### Base
160
+
161
+ Any definition of `frontmatter` may specify a `base` which will be prepended to both the `primary` and `foreign` keys within that `frontmatter` definition.
162
+
163
+ ```yaml
164
+ frontmatter:
165
+ base: links
166
+ primary: id # treated as `links.id`
167
+ foreign: <collection> # treated as `links.<collection>`
168
+ ```
169
+
170
+ The default `base` is `relationships` i.e. all information about relationships is by default read from and stored under a `relationships` key on any document in the site.
171
+
172
+ You can unset `base` with an empty string.
173
+
174
+ ### Defaults and Overrides
175
+
176
+ `frontmatter` settings for any given relationship is determined by a series of overrides:
177
+
178
+ 1. Built-in defaults
179
+ 2. Global config
180
+ 3. Override at relationship level
181
+ 4. Override at `to` level
182
+
183
+ For instance if `base` is defined higher in the chain, it will apply by default to any `frontmatter` given lower down, unless it is unset at that level.
184
+
185
+
186
+ ## References
187
+
188
+ In a document's frontmatter, a link from one document to another is a "reference". The references in frontmatter can be either:
189
+
190
+ * A string of the foreign key
191
+ * A reference hash where some property gives the foreign key
192
+ * An array of either of the above, or mixing the above.
193
+
194
+ Example:
195
+
196
+ ```yaml
197
+ # superbrand-shoes.md
198
+ title: SuperBrand Shoes
199
+ relationships:
200
+ categories:
201
+ - Shoes
202
+ - id: Trainers
203
+ - Clothing
204
+ ```
205
+
206
+ The `references` config lets you modify the shape of reference hashes. Its keys are arbitrary, and its values can be:
207
+
208
+ * `<key>` exactly (required): this key gives the foreign key, and must be present.
209
+ * `<collection>`: this key gives the collection in which the foreign document exists.
210
+ * `<page>`: this key will be set to the actual `Jekyll::Document` instance for the foreign document.
211
+
212
+ Example:
213
+
214
+ ```yaml
215
+ # _config.yml
216
+ relationships:
217
+ references:
218
+ link_to: <key> # foreign key is now stored on the property 'link_to'
219
+ # collection is removed
220
+ page: <page>
221
+ ```
222
+
223
+ When relationships are processed, references are read loosely: strings are foreign keys, hashes look at the foreign key/collection keys only, ignoring others. Following resolution, all references are upgraded to the defined hash form (merging over any other keys on an existing hash).
224
+
225
+
226
+ ## Primary Keys
227
+
228
+ **Primary keys must be unique** within a collection. However, if you set things up so that primary keys are unique across *all* collections, then you no longer need to know the collection of a document when linking to it: just the foreign key is needed.
229
+
230
+ If the collection isn't given by the reference, all collections will be searched to find the foreign key. If non-unique keys are found this will raise an error.
231
+
232
+ When the `primary` config is `nil`, (which is the default), the document "path" is used as the primary key. This guarantees uniqueness across the whole site. Document path is `Document#relative_path` with leading `_` and trailing `Document.extname` removed, giving strings like `products/shoes` for `shoes.md` in the `products` collection.
233
+
234
+
235
+ ## Trees
236
+
237
+ In Tree mode, documents can be the parents or children of other documents. This type of relationship has special handling and helpers.
238
+
239
+ Tree mode is activated on a relationship with `mode` set to:
240
+ * `parent`: `to` items can be parents of `from` items
241
+ * `child`: `to` items can be children of `from` items
242
+ * `parent/child` or `child/parent`: both `to` and `from` items can be parents of each other
243
+
244
+ Note that the `parent`/`child` relationship is symmetric. If A is a parent of B, then B is a child of A. As soon as one is set one way, the other is implied.
245
+
246
+ Tree mode can be configured under `tree`:
247
+
248
+ * `frontmatter`: set the keys that will be used for single/multiple parents/children and ancestors/descendants.
249
+ * `max`: set max allowed parents/children (default `-1` i.e. unlimited).
250
+ * `url`: interpret URLs as ancestry information (default false).
251
+
252
+ Tree relationships must be declared in `relationships.relationships` with `mode: `. `from`, `to` and whether mode is `parent` or `child` define the relationship's directionality. Swapping `from`/`to` and `mode` would define the same thing.
253
+
254
+ Tree relationships are processed as follows:
255
+
256
+ * Only for declared relationships, look for parents/children in valid directions on documents:
257
+ * By inspecting:
258
+ * The `#url`s of the documents, if config `url: true`. See [URL mode](#url-mode) below.
259
+ * References found in the frontmatter keys on the item (by default, `relationships.parent(s)` and `relationships.child(ren)`).
260
+ * In each case, the value can be a reference directly, or an array of references.
261
+ * All parents/children specified by either method, and by any relationship, are accumulated.
262
+ * This happens across all items, in an initial pass, building a complete graph.
263
+ * Documents can choose whether to specify parents, children, both, or neither. The graph will be built up using the information given in either direction. E.g. if A can be a parent of B, then it will look for B-children of A, and A-parents of B.
264
+ * Protections against loops (including the 0-length case of self-reference) are built-in. If an ancestor/descendant chain attempts to make a link that forms a loop, the chain is broken before adding that link and the attempted link is deleted. A warning is issued but processing otherwise continues.
265
+ * Having built the graph, the tree links are filled in on each document:
266
+ * `parents` and `children` are set as arrays of the immediate ancestors/descendants as reference hashes.
267
+ * `ancestors` and `descendants` are set as arrays where each element is a reference hash. In this situation the hash gains the property `distance`, which is 0 for self, 1 for immediate parent/child, 2 for grandparent/grandchild, etc. The arrays are in ascending distance order. If an item can be reached by multiple paths, the shortest path gives the distance.
268
+
269
+ ### Max
270
+
271
+ The `max` config lets you specify a maximum number of allowed parents/children in a relationship.
272
+
273
+ If more than the max number of parents/children are encountered, only the first up to max are used, and all other attempts to add parent/child fail and that reference is deleted. A warning is issued but processing otherwise continues.
274
+
275
+ For each of `max.parents`/`max.children`, if the value is `1`, the singular `parent`/`child` keys will be used to read the parents/children (otherwise all keys are used) and to set the `parent`/`child` values (which will be the reference directly, not in an array).
276
+
277
+ ### URL mode
278
+
279
+ In URL mode the `url` property of documents are inspected to find parent relationships. On each document, URLs are normalised (no leading/trailing slash, `index.html` removed) and split on `/`, to give a set of URL parts. To find tree relationships in the target collection:
280
+
281
+ * A parent has the same URL parts minus the last one
282
+ * A child has the same URL parts plus one more part.
283
+
284
+
285
+ ## Resolvers
286
+
287
+ You can insert special logic that modifies how the links from X to Y are resolved, by defining and registering one or more Resolver classes for a relationship.
288
+
289
+ Resolvers run for normal relationships (`link` or `bidirectional`), not Tree relationships.
290
+
291
+ Resolvers must be placed in `Jekyll::Plugins::Relationships::Resolvers` and inherit from `Jekyll::Plugins::Relationships::Resolvers::Base`. They could be defined by files in your `_plugins` folder, for instance.
292
+
293
+ Each Resolver must specify the relationship it applies to with the `from` and `to` directives. These have the same syntax and interpretation as `from` and `to` in a relationship definition. The Resolver will run for any implied pair of collections.
294
+
295
+ ```ruby
296
+ class ProductsAndCategories < Jekyll::Plugins::Relationships::Resolvers::Base
297
+ from 'products, categories'
298
+ to 'self'
299
+
300
+ # Called for each item in the collection
301
+ def resolve
302
+ # use link(reference) and unlink(reference) to modify links on this document from `from` to `to`
303
+ end
304
+
305
+ end
306
+ ```
307
+
308
+ The Resolver class is instantiated each time that type of relationship is being resolved for some document. The `resolve` method is called, and this has a chance to modify that document, and the documents it links to.
309
+
310
+ The instance has these variables already set:
311
+
312
+ * `@key`: primary key of the document currently being resolved
313
+ * `@from`: label of the collection this item belongs to
314
+ * `@to`: label of the target collection, links to which are currently being resolved
315
+ * `@site`: the `Jekyll::Site`
316
+
317
+ This document's links are modified with the `link` and `unlink` methods:
318
+
319
+ * `link(reference)`
320
+ * `reference` gives the document to link to, from this document. It must be in the `@to` collection.
321
+ * `reference:` (optional named parameter): gives a hash that the created reference hash will merge over, providing arbitrary addititional properties to the hash.
322
+ * Adding a duplicate link has no effect.
323
+ * `unlink(reference)`
324
+ * Remove the link to the `reference`d document.
325
+ * `unlink` (no reference) removes all links on this document to the `@to` collection.
326
+
327
+ Because the class extends `Resolvers::Base` it has access to these helpers:
328
+
329
+ * `relationships(reference, to: collection)`
330
+ * Gets an array of reference hashes for the relationships from the `reference`d document to the collection passed as `to`.
331
+ * This causes the requested relationships to be resolved immediately on that foreign document, creating a recursion. Cyclic dependencies are detected and throw an error.
332
+ * If `to` is omitted, the value of `@to` is used.
333
+ * You can get those relationships on *this* document to the target collection: this will return current links. You can modify from there.
334
+ * Tree-traversal methods:
335
+ * `parents(reference)`: shorthand for `ancestors(reference, max: 1)`.
336
+ * `ancestors(reference)`
337
+ * Returns the array of ancestors of the `reference`d document, where each array item is a reference hash with `distance`.
338
+ * `max` (optional, default `-1`): the max `distance` to search/return. `-1` means no limit.
339
+ * `min` (optional, default `1`): the min `distance` to search/return. `0` would include the item itself.
340
+ * `children(reference)`: shorthand for `descendants(reference, max: 1)`.
341
+ * `descendants(reference)`: equivalent to `ancestors` but looking in the opposite direction.
342
+ * `document(reference)`: retrieves the `reference`d document.
343
+ * Only valid for items participating in relationships.
344
+ * If that document itself has defined relationships, it recurses to resolve those first, unless that document is this document.
345
+ * Returns the actual `Jekyll::Document`.
346
+
347
+ The `reference` parameter in all the above:
348
+
349
+ * Can be a reference (i.e. a key string or reference hash). If optional `from` is passed, or the reference hash has collection info, the key lookup is constrained to that collection.
350
+ * Can be a `Jekyll::Document` object. Its primary key and collection are read from the object.
351
+ * Can be omitted in the helpers, in which case the method operates on *this* document.
352
+
353
+ ### Example
354
+
355
+ ```ruby
356
+ class ProjectServices < Jekyll::Plugins::Relationships::Resolvers::Base
357
+ from 'projects'
358
+ to 'services'
359
+
360
+ # Services on this project are determined by looking at
361
+ # its deliverables and all of their ancestors
362
+ # and the services they link to
363
+ def resolve
364
+ relationships(to: 'deliverables').each do |deliverable|
365
+ ancestors(deliverable, min: 0).each do |ancestor|
366
+ relationships(ancestor, to: 'services').each do |service|
367
+ link(service, reference: { distance: distance(ancestor) + distance(service) })
368
+ end
369
+ end
370
+ end
371
+ end
372
+
373
+ # Helper to add distance info to added links
374
+ def distance(reference)
375
+ if reference.has_key?('distance')
376
+ reference['distance']
377
+ else
378
+ 0
379
+ end
380
+ end
381
+
382
+ end
383
+ ```
384
+
385
+ ## Multiple Links
386
+
387
+ By default, A can only link to B once. If the same link is given again, further links are ignored. You can control this behaviour with `relationships.multiple`. This can be:
388
+
389
+ * A string:
390
+ * `drop`: default behaviour, no multiple links
391
+ * `keep`: allow multiple links to the same thing
392
+ * `count`: collapse multiple links, but keep a count of how many times it was linked, on the reference hash
393
+ * A hash where:
394
+ * `mode` is one of the above
395
+ * `sort` is `asc` or `desc`. Sort is only applicable to `mode: count`. Links will be sorted by the number of times that they were linked, in ascending/descending order.
396
+
397
+ In `count` mode, the reference hash additionally has a `count` key. You can change where this key appears with:
398
+
399
+ ```yaml
400
+ references:
401
+ my_key: <key>
402
+ my_collection: <collection>
403
+ my_page: <page>
404
+ my_count: <count>
405
+ ```
406
+
407
+
408
+ ## Pruning
409
+
410
+ You can remove certain pages from your site ("prune" them) according to the number of finally-resolved relationships on them. This is controlled with a `prune` key which you add to the relationship definition:
411
+
412
+ ```yaml
413
+ relationships:
414
+ # Normal relationship definitions
415
+ relationships:
416
+ - from: projects
417
+ to: categories, tags
418
+ prune:
419
+ min: 1 # prune a project if it links to fewer than 1 category/tag total
420
+ - from: products
421
+ to: categories
422
+ prune:
423
+ mode: inverse
424
+ min: 1 # prune a category if fewer than 1 products link to it
425
+ - from: categories
426
+ to: self
427
+ mode: parent
428
+ prune:
429
+ min: 2 # prune a category if it has fewer than 2 parents
430
+ depth: -1 # only prune non-root nodes
431
+ - from: products
432
+ mode: parent
433
+ to:
434
+ - collection: self
435
+ prune:
436
+ mode: inverse
437
+ min: 2 # prune a product if it has fewer than 2 children
438
+ depth: 1 # only prune root notes
439
+ prune:
440
+ combine: true # default
441
+ iterations: 10 # default
442
+ tree:
443
+ orphans: grandparents # default
444
+ ```
445
+
446
+ `prune` on each relationship/target entry allows:
447
+
448
+ * `min` (required): the minimum number of related documents needed to survive.
449
+ * `mode: inverse` (optional): prune the `to` side instead of the `from` side.
450
+ * `depth` (required if pruning a tree): only for tree relationships, determines which tree nodes can be pruned:
451
+ * `1` selects roots, `2` would be roots and their chlidren, etc.
452
+ * `-1` and negative integers are the negation of their positive counterparts. So `-2` means all but the first two levels of the tree are eligible for pruning.
453
+
454
+ If pruning removes a node from a tree, any children that lose all parents become orphans. `relationships.prune.tree.orphans` controls what happens:
455
+
456
+ * `grandparents` (default): reconnect to the pruned node's original grandparents, if any.
457
+ * `grandparents required`: as above, but also remove the orphan if there is no grandparent to connec to.
458
+ * `prune`: prune all orphans recursively.
459
+ * `orphan`: leave them parentless.
460
+
461
+ `prune` can also be `false` to disable pruning at that level, or an integer as a shortcut for `prune: min: int`.
462
+
463
+
464
+ ## Keywords
465
+
466
+ In many places, certain keyword strings have special meaning. In case these strings clash with a collection name or frontmatter key, you can change them with the `keywords` config.
467
+
468
+ ```yaml
469
+ keywords:
470
+ base: prepend
471
+ self: itself
472
+ #etc for all reserved tokens that can be used in a context where collection names or frontmatter keys can also be given
473
+ ```
474
+
475
+
476
+ ## Examples
477
+
478
+ ```yml
479
+ # Portfolio site
480
+ relationships:
481
+ frontmatter:
482
+ base: ''
483
+ primary: meta.id
484
+ foreign: data.<collection>
485
+
486
+ relationships:
487
+ # Clients have an organisation type, industry and location
488
+ - from: clients
489
+ to: org_types, industries, locations
490
+ # Deliverables, industries and locations can nest inside themselves
491
+ - from: deliverables, industries, locations
492
+ to: self
493
+ mode: parent
494
+ - from: deliverables
495
+ to: services
496
+ - from: projects
497
+ to:
498
+ - services
499
+ - collection: deliverables
500
+ frontmatter:
501
+ foreign: data.deliverables, data.body.details.deliverables
502
+ - collection: clients
503
+ frontmatter:
504
+ foreign: data.client
505
+ ```
