Yes.

> for example: alice has 10 euros

I wouldn't model Alice as having 10 Euros... Alice has an account that
contains 10 Euros.

{
  "@context": "https://w3id.org/payswarm/v1",
  "id": "http://example.com/alice",
  "name": "Alice",
  "account":
  {
    "id": "http://example.com/alice/accounts/savings",
    "type": "Account",
    "label": "Savings Account",
    "amount": "7563.00",
    "currency": "EUR"
  }
}

> or account XYZ has 10 bitcoins

{
  "@context": "https://w3id.org/payswarm/v1",
  "id": "http://example.com/bob/accounts/retirement",
  "type": "Account",
  "label": "Retirement Account",
  "amount": "2.12498",
  "currency": "BTC"
}

Note that in the above two examples, EUR and BTC will resolve to a
relative URL when they really should resolve to a currency URL like:

https://w3id.org/currencies/EUR

or

https://w3id.org/currencies/BTC

Currently, we have only created the USD currency. If you'd like, we can
add EUR and BTC as well. Or, you can submit a pull request for the
PaySwarm context here:

https://github.com/web-payments/payswarm.com/blob/master/contexts/payswarm-v1.jsonld#L103

And then some re-direction entries here:

https://github.com/perma-id/w3id.org

Let me know how you'd like to proceed.

Manu:

The quick answer is that GoodRelations does not cover monetary transactions. 
You could, in theory, model monetary amounts by reusing the PriceSpecification class, but at least currently, there is no super-class gr:MonetaryAmount. We may add that at some point.

What you could model with GoodRelations is the offer to carry out monetary transactions (e.g. currency conversion services), but the focus here would be on the terms and conditions of the service, and not on the service itself.

May I also kindly ask you to continue this thread in the Web Payments forum if it no longer deals with GoodRelations issues, since many subscribers to the GoodRelations list are mainly interested in how to use GoodRelations and understandably unhappy with off-topic discussions?

Thanks!

Best wishes

Martin

Message-ID: <CAK8zB9XmPTkA2-H=qKn7zSGSwyqdGOKT9A5ULdmN+ijiYwyTYA@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

  Am trying to integrate my online store with goodrelations and I have a
couple of quick questions.

 1) Is there any way to link more than one category to a partucular product
other than the hierarchial structure mentioned?

 2) how to upload the image using URL?

I would really appreciate if you could provide me with answers.

Thanks and regards
Paul
