Constructor Details

#initialize(options = {}) ⇒ Pattern #initialize(subject, predicate, object, options = {}) ⇒ Pattern

Note:

Statement treats symbols as interned Node instances, in a RDF::Query::Pattern, they are treated as Variable.

Returns a new instance of Pattern.

Overloads:

  • #initialize(options = {}) ⇒ Pattern

    Parameters:

    • options (Hash{Symbol => Object}) (defaults to: {})

    Options Hash (options):

    • :subject (Variable, Resource, Symbol, nil) — default: nil
    • :predicate (Variable, URI, Symbol, nil) — default: nil
    • :object (Variable, Term, Symbol, nil) — default: nil
    • :graph_name (Variable, Resource, Symbol, nil, false) — default: nil

      A graph_name of nil matches any graph, a graph_name of false, matches only the default graph.

    • :optional (Boolean) — default: false
  • #initialize(subject, predicate, object, options = {}) ⇒ Pattern

    Parameters:

    Options Hash (options):

    • :graph_name (Variable, Resource, Symbol, nil, false) — default: nil

      A graph_name of nil matches any graph, a graph_name of false, matches only the default graph.

    • :optional (Boolean) — default: false

#execute(queryable, bindings = {}) {|statement| ... } ⇒ Enumerable<RDF::Query::Pattern>

Executes this query pattern on the given queryable object.

Values are matched using using Queryable#query_pattern.

If the optional bindings are given, variables will be substituted with their values when executing the query.

To match triples only in the default graph, set graph_name to false.

Examples:

Pattern.new(:s, :p, :o).execute(RDF::Repository.load('etc/doap.nt'))

Parameters:

Yields:

  • (statement)

    each matching statement

Yield Parameters:

  • statement (RDF::Statement)

    an RDF statement matching this pattern

Returns:
