This version allows you to create relationships in the output file.

You only need to specify the relationship in one direction; Realm Works will automatically create the reverse relationship (if required).

The names of the relationships in the tool are the names supported in the XML file, rather than the names that you might see in Realm Works (there isn't an exact one-to-one map).

The simplest example is using topic names (although you can actually choose any field to search on)...

In your data you need to add one or more additional columns which will contain the name of the topic to which a relationship should be made.

In the tool, you will specify the column containing the name of the related topic, and also the column to be search for that name. (The flexibility in the tool means that you can link two articles not merely based on the actual topic name, but on any unique column.)

(Of course, immediately after writing the above parenthetical clause, I realise that the tool could be extended to automatically link to ALL matching topics instead of only the first match. - see V1.47)

You can set up multiple relationships, each possibly of a different type. If the "link" column in the model is left empty in some rows, then no relationship will be created for the topics created from those rows.


The supported relationships are:

Master_To_Minion / Minion_To_Master (RW calls them "Comprises or Belongs" and "Belongs To or Within"):
(V1.47 removed "Minion_To_Master" since RW ignores it during import.)
= Affiliation / Member
= Depends On / Depended Upon By
= Employer / Employee
= Master / Minion
= Organization / Chapter
= Owner / Subsidiary
= Parent / Child
= Residence / Resident
= Supervisor / Subordinate"

Generic:
= Peer
= Equivalence
= Personal
= General Family

Public_Attitude_Towards / Private_Attitude_Towards:
= Gracious
= Friendly
= Pleased
= Neutral
= Annoyed
= Angry
= Hostile

Arbitrary / Union / Parent_To_Offspring / Offspring_To_Parent
(V1.47 removed "Offspring_To_Parent" since RW ignores it during import.)
= (no qualifiers for these)
