Overview

This class is abstract.

The base class for RDF serialization formats.

Examples:

Loading an RDF serialization format implementation

require 'rdf/ntriples'

Iterating over known RDF serialization formats

RDF::Format.each { |klass| puts klass.name }

Getting a serialization format class

RDF::Format.for(:ntriples)     #=> RDF::NTriples::Format
RDF::Format.for("etc/doap.nt")
RDF::Format.for(file_name: "etc/doap.nt")
RDF::Format.for(file_extension: "nt")
RDF::Format.for(content_type: "application/n-triples")

Obtaining serialization format MIME types

RDF::Format.content_types      #=> {"application/n-triples" => [RDF::NTriples::Format]}

Obtaining serialization format file extension mappings

RDF::Format.file_extensions    #=> {nt: [RDF::NTriples::Format]}

Defining a new RDF serialization format class

class RDF::NTriples::Format < RDF::Format
  content_type     'application/n-triples',
                   extension: :nt,
                   uri: RDF::URI("http://www.w3.org/ns/formats/N-Triples")
  content_encoding 'utf-8'

  reader RDF::NTriples::Reader
  writer RDF::NTriples::Writer
end

Instantiating an RDF reader or writer class (1)

RDF::Format.for(:ntriples).reader.new($stdin)  { |reader| ... }
RDF::Format.for(:ntriples).writer.new($stdout) { |writer| ... }

Instantiating an RDF reader or writer class (2)

RDF::Reader.for(:ntriples).new($stdin)  { |reader| ... }
RDF::Writer.for(:ntriples).new($stdout) { |writer| ... }

.detect(sample) ⇒ Boolean

Use a text sample to detect the format of an input file. Sub-classes implement a matcher sufficient to detect probably format matches, including disambiguating between other similar formats.

Used to determine format class from loaded formats by for when a match cannot be unambigiously found otherwise.

Examples:

RDF::NTriples::Format.detect("<a> <b> <c> .") #=> true

Parameters:

  • sample (String) —

    Beginning several bytes (~ 1K) of input.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

.each(file_name: nil, file_extension: nil, content_type: nil, has_reader: false, has_writer: false, sample: nil, all_if_none: true, **options) {|klass| ... } ⇒ Enumerator

Enumerates known RDF serialization format classes.

Given options from for, it returns just those formats that match the specified criteria.

Examples:

finding all formats that have a writer supporting text/html

RDF::Format.each(content_type: 'text/html', has_writer: true).to_a
  #=> RDF::RDFa::Format

Parameters:

  • file_name (String, #to_s) (defaults to: nil) —

    (nil)

  • file_extension (Symbol, #to_sym) (defaults to: nil) —

    (nil)

  • content_type (String, #to_s) (defaults to: nil) —

    (nil) Content type may include wildcard characters, which will select among matching formats. Note that content_type will be taken from a URL opened using Util::File.open_file.

  • has_reader (Boolean) (defaults to: false) —

    (false) Only return a format having a reader.

  • has_writer (Boolean) (defaults to: false) —

    (false) Only return a format having a writer.

  • sample (String, Proc) (defaults to: nil) —

    (nil) A sample of input used for performing format detection. If we find no formats, or we find more than one, and we have a sample, we can perform format detection to find a specific format to use, in which case we pick the last one we find

  • all_if_none (Boolean) (defaults to: true) —

    (true) Returns all formats if none match, otherwise no format. Note that having a sample overrides this, and will search through all formats, or all those filtered to find a sample that matches

Yields:

  • (klass)

Yield Parameters:

  • (Class)

Returns:

  • (Enumerator)

.for(format) ⇒ Class .for(filename) ⇒ Class .for(options) ⇒ Class

Finds an RDF serialization format class based on the given criteria. If multiple formats are identified, the last one found is returned; this allows descrimination of equivalent formats based on load order.
