algebraixlib.import_export.rdf module

Import and export facilities for RDF data.

algebraixlib.import_export.rdf.import_graph()

Return an absolute clan that represents the RDF graph graph_file_or_filepath.

• The graph is represented by a regular, absolute clan.
• The left components are ‘s’ (subject), ‘p’ (predicate) and ‘o’ (object) (see triple).
• Blank nodes are converted to IRIs (skolemization).
• URI references are represented as rdflib.URIRef instances (embedded in an Atom).
• Literals are converted to intuitive native Python types (embedded in an Atom).

Parameters:

• graph_file_or_filepath – A string that is a path (relative or absolute) to the file to be imported, or a file object (like StringIO).
• rdf_format – The format of the RDF graph that is being imported. See Pluginparsers for a list of supported formats and their corresponding strings. If none is given, the file name’s extension is used to guess a format. If that fails, Turtle is used as default.

Returns:

An absolute clan that represents the RDF graph that has been imported.

algebraixlib.import_export.rdf.export_table()

Return a serialized table as string in a supported RDF format for table serialization.

Limitations: - Leading ‘?’ and ‘$’ are not stripped from lefts (variable names). - Non-printable characters are backslash-escaped. - table must be an absolute graph.

Parameters:

• file_or_path – Either a file path (in this case the data is written to a file at this location) or a file object (in this case the data is written to its .write() function).
• lefts – The set of the left components in table that is exported.
• table – An absolute clan that contains the data to be exported.
• out_format – A supported RDF table format. Supported are 'csv' (SPARQL 1.1 Query Results CSV and TSV Formats) and 'json' (SPARQL 1.1 Query Results JSON Format).
