Mutation-responsive documentation generation based on knowledge base

Abstract

A documentation generation engine coupled to a mutation handler are provided, configured to traverse a knowledge base to derive selective views. Organizations may configure a documentation generator application running on generator hosts to summarize records of a knowledge base storing institutional knowledge, and relationships therebetween, as human-readable reference documents. It is undesired for the documentation generator to query the knowledge base on a naive basis in response to updates in order to derive views required to generate updated documentation. Therefore, example embodiments of the present disclosure provide a query-writing framework which describes a schema organizing these records for human readability and describing relationships of these records to other records of interest, from which a set of queries may be derived which cause a knowledge base to return all records topically related by a schema of a query-writing framework, while minimizing excess querying unnecessarily amplifying computational workload and network traffic.
