Life Archive shared tool
Life Archive Linker
A privacy-aware connection layer between Memoir Archive and Family Archive records.
Connect related records without copying them
The Linker allows a Memoir subject or Memoir Person term to point to the corresponding Family Person.
Each specialist module keeps ownership of its own records. The Linker stores the connection and provides appropriate navigation when both sides are available.
At a glance
- Requires Life Archive Core
- Works with Memoir and Family
- Connects existing records
- Does not duplicate people
- Respects Family privacy
- Keeps module ownership separate
Main capabilities
Memoir subject links
Connect a memoir subject with the corresponding Family Person.
Memoir Person links
Connect a Memoir Person taxonomy term with a Family Person record.
Privacy-aware navigation
Show links only when the relevant Family record can be viewed safely.
No duplicate people
Avoid creating another person record merely to connect the two modules.
Optional integration
Remove only the cross-module navigation when the Linker is inactive.
Future extension points
Allow later tools to provide destinations without hard-coding their routes inside the Linker.
A connection, not a new archive
Memoir Archive and Family Archive remain usable without the Linker. Activating it adds controlled relationships between their existing records rather than changing either data model.
- Memoir Archive owns memoir subjects and Memoir Person terms.
- Family Archive owns Family People and privacy rules.
- Linker owns only the cross-module association and navigation.
