follow link relations: meta, alternate and describes

Open elf-pavlik opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

Some pages, instead of embedding structured data, only provide a reference to it for example with rel="meta" http://patterns.dataincubator.org/book/autodiscovery.html

Possibly also using rel="alternate"

`

`

or rel="describes"

<link rel="describes" href="https://data.alice.example/12312321441#this"/>

maybe sniffer could try following all such links using appropriate content negotiation?

It will treat this as Plain Old Semantic HTML (POSH) and present the relations via POSH Tab. This is on our todo.

What about when it's <script type="application/ld+json" src="(some json file")> ? I'm not even seeing that come up in the POSH tab.

@tyrosinase -- JSON-LD is supported in the latest release. Islands take the form .

I don't know about @source being an acceptable mechanism for achieving this goal .

@source? Not sure what that means.

It's probably kind of a moot point for me, since Google doesn't seem to recognize non-embedded data (at least their Structured Data Testing Tool doesn't). Gonna hafta bloat up the pages with embedded data, apparently. Bah.
