[Freebase-discuss] [dime] link.source returns an id rather than a name

[Philip Kendall]

Run the following query:

[{
  "id": "/en/philip_kendall",
  "/type/reflect/any_master": [{
    "link": {
      "master_property": "/people/person/nationality",
      "source":        null,
    }
  }]
}]

In MQL 1.0, the source.link clause returns the name of the node:

{
  "code":          "/api/status/ok",
  "result": [{
    "/type/reflect/any_master": [{
      "link": {
        "master_property": "/people/person/nationality",
        "source":        "Philip Kendall"
      }
    }],
    "id": "/en/philip_kendall"
  }],
  "status":        "200 OK",
  "transaction_id": "cache;cache01.p01.sjc1:8101;2010-07-01T13:09:15Z;0012"
}

However, in Dime, it returns the id:

{
  "result": [{
    "id": "/en/philip_kendall",
    "/type/reflect/any_master": [{
      "link": {
        "master_property": "/people/person/nationality",
        "source":        "/en/philip_kendall"
      }
    }]
  }],
  "code":          "/api/status/ok",
  "errno":         200,
  "status":        "200 OK",
  "transaction_id": "dime;dime01.dmz.sjc1.metaweb.com:8130;31656;2010-07-01T13:09:08.9060Z;0000"
}

source.target does not show this change in behaviour, and returns the
name in both implementations.

Cheers,

Phil
