Overview

The LD Patch ‘constraint` operator.

A constraint is a query operator which either ensures that there is a single input node (“!” operator) or finds a set of nodes for a given ‘path`, optionally filtering those nodes with a particular predicate value.

Maps input terms to output terms using `(path :p)` returning those input terms that have at least a single solution.

Maps input terms to output terms using `(path :p)` and filters the input terms where the output term is `1`.

Returns the single term from the input terms if there is a single input term.

Examples:

existence of path solutions

(constraint (path :p))

paths with property value

(constraint (path :p) 1)

unique terms


(constraint unique)

Instance Method Details

#execute(queryable, options = {}) ⇒ RDF::Query::Solutions

If the first operand is :unique

Parameters:

  • queryable (RDF::Queryable) —

    the graph or repository to write

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

    any additional options

Options Hash (options):

  • starting (Array<RDF::Term>) —

    terms

Returns:

  • (RDF::Query::Solutions) —

    solutions with ‘:term` mapping
