The Hyper database

The structure of the Hyper database is defined by the *.sql files in the source code. The code repository can be browsed online.

Main data types

The main types are found in the "main/" directory, and the structure is in the "*tables.sql" files.

  • author - Tables for Hyper authors
  • material - Tables for Hyper "materials" (these are the primary sources of the Hyper)
  • contrib - Tables for Hyper "contributions" (these are the documents contributed by the Hyper users)
  • relation - Relations between the types above
  • support - Things that don't fit in the other categories, e.g. archives
