Ryan & David,
That will teach me not to edit in the browser ....
My illustration of the Parent and the Child files is as follows:
Parent File
{items:[
{
type: "Parent",
id: "item1",
"label": "label for item 1",
"url": "http://url-for-metadata-field";,
"division": "some division",
"topic": "some topic",
"identifier": "http://url-for-identifier";,
"keywords": ["keyword1","keyword2"],
"tables": ["table1", "table2"]
}
]
}
Child File:
{items:[
{id: table1,
type: "Child",
label:"child label 1",
"referredPageTitle": "some title",
"referredPageDescription": "some description",
"webPublicationDate": "December 22, 2005",
"lastModifiedDate": "December 29, 2007",
"documentType": "Excel Workbook",
"fileSize": "932 kb",
"filePath": "some-file-path"
},
{id:table2,
type: "Child",
label: "child 2 label",
"referredPageTitle": "some other title",
"referredPageDescription": "yet another description",
"webPublicationDate": "October 11, 2008",
"lastModifiedDate": "October 14, 2009",
"documentType": "Excel Workbook",
"fileSize": "1292 kb",
"filePath": "some-other-file-path"
}
]
}
I am wanting to link a Parent record with the respective Child records
based on Parent.tables == Child.id
Hope this makes more sense
Cheers
Peter
