Dear Developers,
I run a wiki with a vast amount of N-ary data. I have yet to hear
from anyone who has successfully figured out how to query N-ary data.
Some of you may have seen my many question on the User Mailing List,
but no has ever said anything other than I hear someone somewhere at
sometime solved that with templates. I have not been able to solve
it with templates and no semantic mediawiki I've found has either.
I'm afraid no one has seriously considered the possibility that N-ary
data is inaccessible from with Mediawiki.
Basically, if you do pass a query to templates, and one of the
parameters is N-ary, then a comma separated list of all fields is
passed and there seems to be no way to handle that data from within a
template, even if there's only one instances of the n-ary value. If I
were just within Perl of PHP, splitting on regex's the passed N-ary
data would be a piece of cake. However, such programming language
features as split and arrays are not possible within a template. I
think this problem warrants serious developer attention.
Thank you,
Robert
