Class: SPARQL::Algebra::Operator::Alt

Inherits:
Binary show all
Includes:
Query
Defined in:
lib/sparql/algebra/operator/alt.rb

Overview

The SPARQL Property Path alt (Alternative Property Path) operator.

Let P and Q be property path expressions.

eval(Path(X, alt(P,Q), Y)) = Union(eval(Path(X, P, Y)), eval(Path(X, Q, Y)))

[89] PathAlternative ::= PathSequence ( '|' PathSequence )*

Examples:

SPARQL Query

PREFIX :  <http://www.example.org/>
SELECT ?t
WHERE {
  :a :p1|:p2/:p3|:p4 ?t
}

SSE

(prefix ((: <http://www.example.org/>))
 (project (?t)
  (path :a
   (alt
    (alt :p1 (seq :p2 :p3))
    :p4)
   ?t)))

Instance Method Details

#execute(queryable, **options) {|solution| ... } ⇒ Object

Equivalent to:

(path x (alt :p :q) y) => (union (bgp (x :p y)) (bgp (x :q y)))

Parameters:

  • queryable (RDF::Queryable) —

    the graph or repository to query

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

    any additional keyword options

Options Hash (**options):

Yields:

  • (solution) —

    each matching solution

Yield Parameters:

Yield Returns:

  • (void) —

    ignored
