## Goals
The goal of this versioning feature are:
1. Allow users to browse a past (or future, given pending edit) state of a space
2. View all of an entity's past changes (or future changes, given pending edit) and associated states
## Implementation
The idea is for the **space edit** to serve as the unit of change (similar to how commits work in a git repository). In other words, space version ids would be derived from edit and space ids.
The data service would be responsible for keeping track of the triples set, updated or deleted for each edit within a space, thus enabling developers to navigate a space after a specific edit was applied to the space.
## Querying
For querying a single entity, the API design is pretty natural: we simply add an optional `version` argument to the `entity` field
```graphql
query {
# Return an entity at a specific version of a space
entity(
id: "ENTITY-ID",
space_id: "SPACE-ID",
version: "VERSION-ID" # optional, defaults to current version
) {
# Every nested selection will fetch data from the space at version VERSION_ID
name
description
...
}
}
```
However, to retrieve multiple versions of an entity in a single query, the API design is less obvious. Here are a few ideas
### Querying past versions of entity
To query the past versions of an entity, go through the `Space` and `SpaceVersion` entities
```graphql
query {
# Select a specfic space
space(id: "SPACE-ID") {
# Select its space versions
versions(
# Filter space versions where our entity has been updated
where: {entities: [
{id: "ENTITY-ID", "updated": true},
]}
) {
# Select our entity
entity(id: "ENTITY-ID") {
name
description
...
}
}
}
}
```
(Note: Not fully satisfied with this design, ideas welcome!)
These new entities would be the same as the ones mentioned in #23
### Selecting multiple entities at some space version
```graphql
query {
entities(
space_id: ["SPACE-ID-A", "SPACE-ID-B"],
versions: ["VERSION-ID-A", "VERSION-ID-B"],
) {
# Returns a list of entities, one for each (SPACE-ID-N, VERSION-ID-B) if it exists
# Any relation traversed from these entities will consider the version at the time (e.g.: kind of like browsing the wayback machine)
name
description
...
}
}
```
Leaving the `versions` field empty would return the entities for the current versions of the selected spaces.
Alternatively the `version` argument could be nested within the `spaces` argument:
```graphql
query {
entities(
spaces: [
{"id": "SPACE-ID-A", "versions": ["VERSION-A", "VERSION-B"]},
{"id": "SPACE-ID-B", "versions": ["VERSION-C", "VERSION-D"]},
]
) {
# Returns a list of entities, one for each (SPACE-ID-N, VERSION-ID-B) if it exists
# Any relation traversed from these entities will consider the version at the time (e.g.: kind of like browsing the wayback machine)
name
description
...
}
}
```
Note: The entities defined in the [[#Querying past versions of entity]] section (`Space` and `SpaceVersion` entities) could also be used to query entities in a space at a given version. Open question which one should be used.
## Implementation
- [x] Update Neo4j data model

調査の方向性
The issue describes a versioning system for entities in a knowledge graph. Start by reviewing the existing data model in Neo4j and the GraphQL API definitions. Look for where space edits are tracked and how entity queries are currently resolved. The goal is to design and implement the versioned querying API, which requires understanding the entire backend architecture.
