new(coercible_t()) :: t()

Creates a RDF.Triple with proper RDF values.

An error is raised when the given elements are not coercible to RDF values.

Note: The RDF.triple function is a shortcut to this function.

Examples

iex> RDF.Triple.new {"http://example.com/S", "http://example.com/p", 42}
{~I<http://example.com/S>, ~I<http://example.com/p>, RDF.literal(42)}
iex> RDF.Triple.new {EX.S, EX.p, 42}
{RDF.iri("http://example.com/S"), RDF.iri("http://example.com/p"), RDF.literal(42)}

Specs

new(
  RDF.Statement.coercible_subject(),
  RDF.Statement.coercible_predicate(),
  RDF.Statement.coercible_object()
) :: t()

Creates a RDF.Triple with proper RDF values.

An error is raised when the given elements are not coercible to RDF values.

Note: The RDF.triple function is a shortcut to this function.

Examples

iex> RDF.Triple.new("http://example.com/S", "http://example.com/p", 42)
{~I<http://example.com/S>, ~I<http://example.com/p>, RDF.literal(42)}
iex> RDF.Triple.new(EX.S, EX.p, 42)
{RDF.iri("http://example.com/S"), RDF.iri("http://example.com/p"), RDF.literal(42)}

Specs

valid?(t() | any()) :: boolean()

Checks if the given tuple is a valid RDF triple.

The elements of a valid RDF triple must be RDF terms. On the subject position only IRIs and blank nodes allowed, while on the predicate position only IRIs allowed. The object position can be any RDF term.

Specs

values(t() | any(), RDF.Statement.term_mapping()) :: t_values() | nil

Returns a tuple of native Elixir values from a RDF.Triple of RDF terms.

Returns nil if one of the components of the given tuple is not convertible via RDF.Term.value/1.

The optional second argument allows to specify a custom mapping with a function which will receive a tuple {statement_position, rdf_term} where statement_position is one of the atoms :subject, :predicate or :object, while rdf_term is the RDF term to be mapped. When the given function returns nil this will be interpreted as an error and will become the overhaul result of the values/2 call.

Examples

iex> RDF.Triple.values {~I<http://example.com/S>, ~I<http://example.com/p>, RDF.literal(42)}
{"http://example.com/S", "http://example.com/p", 42}

iex> {~I<http://example.com/S>, ~I<http://example.com/p>, RDF.literal(42)}
...> |> RDF.Triple.values(fn
...>      {:object, object} -> RDF.Term.value(object)
...>      {_, term}         -> term |> to_string() |> String.last()
...>    end)
{"S", "p", 42}
