DESCRIPTION

Implements aREF query <http://gbv.github.io/aREF/aREF.html#aref-query>, a query language to access strings and nodes from agiven RDF graph.

See also functions "aref_query" and "aref_query_map" in RDF::aREF for convenient application.

CONFIGURATION

The constructor expects the following options:
query
aREF query <http://gbv.github.io/aREF/aREF.html#aref-query> expression
decoder
Instance of RDF::aREF::Decoder to map qNames to URIs. A new instance is created unless given.
ns
Optional namespace map (RDF::NS), passed to the constructor of RDF::aREF::Decoder if no decoder is given.

METHODS

apply( $graph [, $origin ] )

Perform the query on a given RDF graph. The graph can be given as aREF structure (subject map or predicate map) or as instance of RDF::Trine::Model. An origin subject node must be provided unless the RDF graph is provided as predicate map <http://gbv.github.io/aREF/aREF.html#predicate-maps>.

query

Returns the aREF query expression
