RDF.Quad (RDF.ex v0.9.2) View Source
Helper functions for RDF quads.
A RDF Quad is represented as a plain Elixir tuple consisting of four valid RDF values for subject, predicate, object and a graph name.

Specs
map(t(), RDF.Statement.term_mapping()) :: t_values() | nil
Returns a tuple where each element from a RDF.Quad
is mapped with the given function.
Returns nil
if one of the components of the given tuple is not convertible via RDF.Term.value/1
.
The function fun
will receive a tuple {statement_position, rdf_term}
where
statement_position
is one of the atoms :subject
, :predicate
, :object
or
:graph_name
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 map/2
call.

Specs
new(RDF.Statement.coercible_t(), RDF.PropertyMap.t() | nil) :: t()
Creates a RDF.Quad
with proper RDF values.
An error is raised when the given elements are not coercible to RDF values.
Note: The RDF.quad
function is a shortcut to this function.
Examples
iex> RDF.Quad.new {"http://example.com/S", "http://example.com/p", 42, "http://example.com/Graph"}
{~I<http://example.com/S>, ~I<http://example.com/p>, RDF.literal(42), ~I<http://example.com/Graph>}
iex> RDF.Quad.new {EX.S, EX.p, 42, EX.Graph}
{RDF.iri("http://example.com/S"), RDF.iri("http://example.com/p"), RDF.literal(42), RDF.iri("http://example.com/Graph")}
iex> RDF.Quad.new {EX.S, EX.p, 42}
{RDF.iri("http://example.com/S"), RDF.iri("http://example.com/p"), RDF.literal(42), nil}
iex> RDF.Quad.new {EX.S, :p, 42, EX.Graph}, RDF.PropertyMap.new(p: EX.p)
{RDF.iri("http://example.com/S"), RDF.iri("http://example.com/p"), RDF.literal(42), RDF.iri("http://example.com/Graph")}
Specs
new( RDF.Statement.coercible_subject(), RDF.Statement.coercible_predicate(), RDF.Statement.coercible_object(), RDF.Statement.coercible_graph_name(), RDF.PropertyMap.t() | nil ) :: t()
Creates a RDF.Quad
with proper RDF values.
An error is raised when the given elements are not coercible to RDF values.
Note: The RDF.quad
function is a shortcut to this function.
Examples
iex> RDF.Quad.new("http://example.com/S", "http://example.com/p", 42, "http://example.com/Graph")
{~I<http://example.com/S>, ~I<http://example.com/p>, RDF.literal(42), ~I<http://example.com/Graph>}
iex> RDF.Quad.new(EX.S, EX.p, 42, EX.Graph)
{RDF.iri("http://example.com/S"), RDF.iri("http://example.com/p"), RDF.literal(42), RDF.iri("http://example.com/Graph")}
iex> RDF.Quad.new(EX.S, :p, 42, EX.Graph, RDF.PropertyMap.new(p: EX.p))
{RDF.iri("http://example.com/S"), RDF.iri("http://example.com/p"), RDF.literal(42), RDF.iri("http://example.com/Graph")}
Specs
Checks if the given tuple is a valid RDF quad.
The elements of a valid RDF quad must be RDF terms. On the subject position only IRIs and blank nodes allowed, while on the predicate and graph name position only IRIs allowed. The object position can be any RDF term.
Specs
Returns a tuple of native Elixir values from a RDF.Quad
of RDF terms.
When a :context
option is given with a RDF.PropertyMap
, predicates will
be mapped to the terms defined in the RDF.PropertyMap
, if present.
Returns nil
if one of the components of the given tuple is not convertible via RDF.Term.value/1
.
Examples
iex> RDF.Quad.values {~I<http://example.com/S>, ~I<http://example.com/p>, RDF.literal(42), ~I<http://example.com/Graph>}
{"http://example.com/S", "http://example.com/p", 42, "http://example.com/Graph"}
iex> {~I<http://example.com/S>, ~I<http://example.com/p>, RDF.literal(42), ~I<http://example.com/Graph>}
...> |> RDF.Quad.values(context: %{p: ~I<http://example.com/p>})
{"http://example.com/S", :p, 42, "http://example.com/Graph"}
