[−][src]Crate sophia_api
This crate provides a foundation, as a set of traits and core types, for building interoperable implementations of RDF and Linked Data in Rust.
For an all-included crate
(providing actual implementations of the traits defined here),
see sophia

RDF
RDF is a data model designed to exchange knowledge on the Web in an interoperable way. Each piece of knowledge in RDF (a statement) is represented by a triple, made of three terms. A set of triples forms an RDF graph. Finally, several graphs can be grouped in a collection called a dataset, where each graph is identified by a unique name.
Generalized vs. Strict RDF model
The data model supported by this crate is in fact a superset of the RDF data model as defined by the W3C. When the distinction matters, they will be called, respectively, the generalized RDF model, and the strict RDF model.
Modules
dataset | An RDF dataset is composed of a default graph, and zero or more named graphs, each associated with a graph name. |
graph | An RDF graph, the central notion of the RDF data model, is a collection of triples. |
ns | Standard and custom namespaces. |
parser | API for parsing RDF syntaxes. |
quad | A quad expresses a single fact within a context.
Quads are like RDF |
serializer | API for serializing RDF syntaxes. |
term | This module defines the API for RDF terms. |
triple | An RDF triple expresses a single fact. Its formed of three terms called subject, predicate and object. |
Macros
def_mod_functions_for_bufread_parser | Define convenience module-level functions for a parser implementation supporting BufRead. |
make_scoped_quad_streaming_mode | Create a streaming mode for lifetime-parameterized Quad types. |
make_scoped_triple_streaming_mode | Create a streaming mode for lifetime-parameterized Triple types. |
namespace | Create a "namespace module" defining a set of terms within a given IRI space. |
ns_iri | Create a term in a "namespace module".
