For DigiHaven we have introduced a record tree with metadata inheritance, where metadata is inherited from the top of the tree to the children below. For MediaHaven 2.0 will be gradually moving from a partial structure to a full tree structure with representations as for DigiHaven as shown in the trees below. The page Record Tree Glossary provides an overview of different Over time our MediaHaven application has adopted the record tree and as of version 24.1 it will have fully completed the transition.

Overview

Record Treesprovides a high-level description of the different trees used in our applications. The organisation of records into record trees is achieved by defining properties on theirRecord Types. In Record Tree Glossary we provide an overview of several technical terms used to describe the record treetrees.

Metadata

The following pages show diagrams for MediaHaven and DigiHaven. In the Use Cases we describe additional hypothetical examples of trees.

Rules

Tip
  • A record can have at most 1 parent

  • No loops are allowed within the tree

  • Examples of records with no parent are the records at the top of the tree such as the Series or Classification

  • Because no loops are allowed within the tree

    • A record cannot be a parent or child of itself

    • A record cannot be adopted by one of its (grand)children or (grand)parents
