Metaweb Perl Module

  1.  
    1. I've started work on writing a Perl module to provide an interface to Metaweb - heavily based around using Freebase at this point obviously.

      I just wanted to check that no one else was working on a similar undertaking. If no one else is, I'm proposing the Net::Metaweb name space and will publish it on CPAN. I'm working on a structure that will allow queries to be given as either perl objects (a la the example in the Freebase developer documentation) or as a JSON string, and to receive either for the response too.

      If anyone is interested in working on this, please let me know.

      1. I'd be interested, hds. I currently do quite a bit of work in Perl, both professionally and free time. Your idea sounds great. JdP

      2. Good to hear it. Current version is available from subversion:



        svn co http://caffeineconcepts.com/net-metaweb



        Having said that, give it about 2 hours and I'll be finished a re-hash of my implementation - it will make a bit of a difference as to the methods you call to get a query.

      3. hi hds,

        I'm interested too, actually there is two other module in cpan and none of them working becasue of latest version of JSON and JSON::XS module.

        if you need someone to contribute let me know.

      4. you svn address also dosen't work, would you create free repository in one of these websites like github.com, www.assembla.com, google code or sourceforge?

      5. I know it may be a little late, but I have now moved my repository to google code.

        http://code.google.com/p/www-metaweb/ 

        I'm also planning on releasing a new version to CPAN next week as a new version of JSON::XS has caused compatibility issues.
