conceptnet-relationship-cache

Some relationships cached from ConceptNet, for quick and easy use. Not necessarily up-to-date, however, and with abbreviated relationship objects.

Installation

npm install --save conceptnet-relationship-cache

Usage

This package contains a set of line-delimited JSON data files, one for each category. Each of those contains an accompanying offsets JSON file that you can use to get a line from the data via random access using line-chomper.

A line in a data file looks like this:

{"concept":"Corner","rel":"AtLocation","emittingConcepts":["180 Degrees","Bad Boy","Bad Child","Bored Child","Cabinet","Chair","Chess Rook","Child With Time Out","Cobb Webs","Corner Cabinet","Corner Shop","Dennis Menace","Dirt","Dunce","Dust","Dust Bunnies","Ficus","Floor Boards","Intersection of Three Planes","Intersection of Two Walls","Lamp","Little Jack Horner","Naughty Child","News Vendor","Punished Child","Right Angle","Shelf","Sign Post","Spider Web","Spider Webs","Stool","Table","Toys","Trash Can","Trash Receptacle","Wall","Walls"],"receivingConcepts":["Street Corner"]}

It lists a concept, the relationship (rel), and:

• receivingConcepts: Concepts that "receive" the relationship from this concept. e.g. "Street Corner" receives "AtLocation" from "Corner". Or in more natural language, the corner is at the street corner. (Sometimes, ConceptNet does not make perfect sense.)

• emittingConcepts: Concepts that "emit" the relationship to this concept. e.g. "Child With Time Out" emits "AtLocation" to "Corner". Or in more natural language, the child with time out is at the corner.

They're located at node_modules/conceptnet-relationship-cache/data/conceptnet.

However, you can also get a random entry for a given category like so:

var cache = require('conceptnet-relationship-cache');

cache.getRandomMap(
  { category: 'AtLocation' },
  logRel
);

function logRel(error, entry) {
  if (error) {
    console.log(error, error.stack);
  } else {
    console.log(entry);
  }
}

Output will be a data file entry, like the example above.
