* Restructured verb frame schema to be more queryableKelly Rauchenberger2017-01-281-77/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Groups are much less significant now, and they no longer have a database table, nor are they considered a top level object anymore. Instead of containing their own role data, that data is folded into the frames so that it's easier to query; as a result, each group has its own copy of the frames that it contains. Additionally, parts are considered top level objects now, and you can query for frames based on attributes of their indexed parts. Synrestrs are also contained in their own table now, so that parts can be filtered against their synrestrs; they are however not considered top level objects. Created a new type of field, the "join where" or "condition join" field, which is a normal join field that has a built in condition on a specified field. This is used to allow creating multiple distinct join fields from one object to another. This is required for the lemma::form and frame::part joins, because filters for forms of separate inflections should not be coalesced; similarly, filters on differently indexed frame parts should not be coalesced. Queries can now be ordered, ascending or descending, by a field, in addition to randomly as before. This is necessary for accessing the parts of a verb frame in the correct order, but may be useful to an end user as well. Fixed a bug with statement generation in that condition groups were not being surrounded in parentheses, which made mixing OR groups and AND groups generate inaccurate statements. This has been fixed; additionally, parentheses are not placed around the top level condition, and nested condition groups with the same logic type are coalesced, to make query strings as easy to read as possible. Also simplified the form::lemma field; it no longer conditions on the inflection of the form like the lemma::form field does. Also added a debug flag to statement::getQueryString that makes it return a query string with all of the bindings filled in, for debug use only.

* Started structural rewriteKelly Rauchenberger2017-01-161-308/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new object structure was designed to build on the existing WordNet structure, while also adding in all of the data that we get from other sources. More information about this can be found on the project wiki. The generator has already been completely rewritten to generate a datafile that uses the new structure. In addition, a number of indexes are created, which does double the size of the datafile, but also allows for much faster lookups. Finally, the new generator is written modularly and is a lot more readable than the old one. The verbly interface to the new object structure has mostly been completed, but has not been tested fully. There is a completely new search API which utilizes a lot of operator overloading; documentation on how to use it should go up at some point. Token processing and verb frames are currently unimplemented. Source for these have been left in the repository for now.
* Added verb framesKelly Rauchenberger2016-03-241-0/+320
In addition: - Added prepositions. - Rewrote a lot of the query interface. It now, for a lot of relationships, supports nested AND, OR, and NOT logic. - Rewrote the token class. It is now a union-like class instead of being polymorphic, which means smart pointers are no longer necessary. - Querying with regards to word derivation has been temporarily removed. - Sentinel values are now supported for all word types. - The VerbNet data retrieved from http://verbs.colorado.edu/~mpalmer/projects/verbnet/downloads.html was found to not be perfectly satisfactory in some regards, especially regarding adjective phrases. A patch file is now included in the repository describing the changes made to the VerbNet v3.2 download for the canonical verbly datafile.
