View Source RDF.Term protocol (RDF.ex v2.0.0)
Shared behaviour for all RDF terms.
A RDF.Term
is anything which can be an element of RDF statements of an RDF graph:
Summary
Functions
Converts a given value into an RDF term.
Tests for term equality.
Tests for equality of values.
Checks if the given value is an RDF term.
Returns the native Elixir value of an RDF term.
Types
@type t() :: RDF.Resource.t() | RDF.Literal.t()
Functions
Converts a given value into an RDF term.
Returns nil
if the given value is not convertible into any valid RDF.Term.
Examples
iex> RDF.Term.coerce("foo")
~L"foo"
iex> RDF.Term.coerce(42)
RDF.XSD.integer(42)
Tests for term equality.
Tests for equality of values.
Non-RDF terms are tried to be coerced via RDF.Term.coerce/1
before comparison.
Returns nil
if the given terms are not comparable.
see http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-sparql-query/#func-RDFterm-equal and the value equality semantics of the different literal datatypes here: https://www.w3.org/TR/sparql11-query/#OperatorMapping
Checks if the given value is an RDF term.
Note: As opposed to RDF.term?
this function returns false
on atoms and does
not try to resolve them to IRIs.
Examples
iex> RDF.Term.term?(RDF.iri("http://example.com/resource"))
true
iex> RDF.Term.term?(EX.Resource)
false
iex> RDF.Term.term?(RDF.bnode)
true
iex> RDF.Term.term?(RDF.XSD.integer(42))
true
iex> RDF.Term.term?(42)
false
Returns the native Elixir value of an RDF term.
Returns nil
if the given value is not a valid RDF term or a value convertible to an RDF term.
Examples
iex> RDF.Term.value(~I<http://example.com/>)
"http://example.com/"
iex> RDF.Term.value(~L"foo")
"foo"
iex> RDF.XSD.integer(42) |> RDF.Term.value()
42
