Defined in:
lib/json/ld/writer.rb

Overview

A JSON-LD parser in Ruby.

Note that the natural interface is to write a whole graph at a time. Writing statements or Triples will create a graph to add them to and then serialize the graph.

The writer will add prefix definitions, and use them for creating @context definitions, and minting CURIEs

Select the :expand option to output JSON-LD in expanded form

Examples:

Obtaining a JSON-LD writer class

RDF::Writer.for(:jsonld)         #=> JSON::LD::Writer
RDF::Writer.for("etc/test.json")
RDF::Writer.for(:file_name      => "etc/test.json")
RDF::Writer.for(file_extension: "json")
RDF::Writer.for(:content_type   => "application/turtle")

Serializing RDF graph into an JSON-LD file

JSON::LD::Writer.open("etc/test.json") do |writer|
  writer << graph
end

Serializing RDF statements into an JSON-LD file

JSON::LD::Writer.open("etc/test.json") do |writer|
  graph.each_statement do |statement|
    writer << statement
  end
end

Serializing RDF statements into an JSON-LD string

JSON::LD::Writer.buffer do |writer|
  graph.each_statement do |statement|
    writer << statement
  end
end

Creating @@context prefix definitions in output

JSON::LD::Writer.buffer(
  prefixes: {
    nil => "http://example.com/ns#",
    foaf: "http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/"}
) do |writer|
  graph.each_statement do |statement|
    writer << statement
  end
end

Constructor Details

#initialize(output = $stdout, **options) {|writer| ... } ⇒ Writer

Initializes the RDF-LD writer instance.

Parameters:

  • output (IO, File) (defaults to: $stdout)

    the output stream

  • options (Hash{Symbol => Object})

    any additional options

Options Hash (**options):

  • :encoding (Encoding) — default: Encoding::UTF_8

    the encoding to use on the output stream (Ruby 1.9+)

  • :canonicalize (Boolean) — default: false

    whether to canonicalize literals when serializing

  • :prefixes (Hash) — default: {}

    the prefix mappings to use (not supported by all writers)

  • :standard_prefixes (Boolean) — default: false

    Add standard prefixes to @prefixes, if necessary.

  • :context (IO, Array, Hash, String, Context) — default: {}

    context to use when serializing. Constructed context for native serialization.

  • :frame (IO, Array, Hash, String, Context) — default: {}

    frame to use when serializing.

  • :unique_bnodes (Boolean) — default: false

    Use unique bnode identifiers, defaults to using the identifier which the node was originall initialized with (if any).

  • :stream (Boolean) — default: false

    Do not attempt to optimize graph presentation, suitable for streaming large graphs.

Yields:

  • (writer)

    ‘self`

  • (writer)

Yield Parameters:

  • writer (RDF::Writer)
  • writer (RDF::Writer)

Yield Returns:

  • (void)

Class Method Details

.accept?(accept_params) {|accept_params| ... } ⇒ Boolean

Use parameters from accept-params to determine if the parameters are acceptable to invoke this writer. The ‘accept_params` will subsequently be provided to the writer instance.

Parameters:

Yields:

  • (accept_params)

    if a block is given, returns the result of evaluating that block

Yield Parameters:

  • accept_params (Hash{Symbol => String})

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

Instance Method Details

#write_epiloguevoid

This method returns an undefined value.

Outputs the Serialized JSON-LD representation of all stored statements.

If provided a context or prefixes, we’ll create a context and use it to compact the output. Otherwise, we return un-compacted JSON-LD
