dOclike
dOclike is a term used in theoretical discussions of data models to describe a family of document-oriented, object-based representations that treat documents as first-class citizens. A dOclike model combines the hierarchical, human-readable structure of documents with the flexibility of object-oriented data, allowing metadata, sections, links, and provenance to be modeled and manipulated as data objects.
Core concepts in dOclike systems include: a document root that encapsulates content and metadata; sections or
Syntax and data model in a dOclike representation typically feature a document as a mapping with fields
Example (illustrative): a document might be represented as
{ id: "d1", type: "article", meta: { author: "A. Writer", date: "2025-12-01" }, content: [ { section: "Intro", body: "..." } ], references:
Applications and discussion: dOclike remains largely theoretical or experimental, offering a framework for combining document semantics
