Description

The Semantic Tagging XWiki component enriches the tagging mechanism for the XWiki Platform using the Zemanta content recommendation tool and the DBpedia knowledge base.

How to use it

The Semantic Tagging component can be used from a velocity script for example:

#set($suggestedList = $tagger.getSuggestions("get suggestions for this text"))
#foreach($suggestedTag in $suggestedList)
  #set($ok = $tagger.fetchFirstSemanticDetail($suggestedTag))
  #set($details = $suggestedTag.getSemanticDetails())
 <li>
   <a class="suggested-tag" href="#">$suggestedTag.name</a>
   <span class="suggested-tag-info" style="display: none">$details.get(0).getDescription()
    #if("$details.get(0).getUri()" != "")
     <br/><a href="$details.get(0).getUri()">Visit</a>
    #else
      $msg.get("semtags.nodetails")
    #end
   <div id="more-at">$msg.get("semtags.poweredBy")<a href="http://www.dbpedia.org"><img src='$dbpediaImg' alt="Dbpedia"/></a></div></span>
 </li>
#end

The Semantic Tagging application is a use case for this component.
