Component body

This module defines a 'Freebase Reference' field type which can be used to reference freebase topics via Freebase's suggest widget.

The field stores the label and mid of a Freebase topic. It renders values either as (1) 'Topic Name + mid ('Harold and Maude [mid: /m/03gmw] '), (2) just the topic name ('Harold and Maude'), or (3) just the mid ('/m/03gmw') .

The list of topics which can be referenced can be limited to specific Freebase types.

Possible uses for this module include:

  • tagging nodes with Freebase identifiers
  • using Freebase topics as controlled vocabulary terms for node fields
