RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config(3) configuration sets for RDFa parser

DESCRIPTION

The third argument to the constructor for RDF::RDFa::Parser objects is a configuration set. This module provides such configuration sets.

Confguration sets are needed by the parser so that it knows how to handle certain features which vary between different host languages, or different RDFa versions.

All you need to know about is the constructor:

  $config = RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->new($host, $version, %options);

$host is the host language. Generally you would supply one of the following constants; the default is HOST_XHTML. Internet media types are accepted (e.g. 'text/html' or 'image/svg+xml'), but it's usually better to use a constant as some media types are shared (e.g. HTML4 and HTML5 both use the same media type).

  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_ATOM
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_DATARSS
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_HTML32
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_HTML4
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_HTML5
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_OPENDOCUMENT_XML (Flat XML: ``FODT'', ``FODS'', etc)
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_OPENDOCUMENT_ZIP (``ODT'', ``ODS'', etc)
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_SVG
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_XHTML
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_XHTML5
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_XML

$version is the RDFa version. Generally you would supply one of the following constants; the default is RDFA_LATEST.

  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->RDFA_10
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->RDFA_11
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->RDFA_GUESS
  • RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->RDFA_LATEST

Version guessing: the root element is inspected for an attribute 'version'. If this exists and matches /\bRDFa\s+(\d+\.\d+)\b/i then that is used as the version. Otherwise, the latest version is assumed.

%options is a hash of additional options to use which override the defaults. While many of these are useful, they probably also reduce conformance to the official RDFa specifications. The following options exist; defaults for XHTML+RDFa1.0 and XHTML+RDFa1.1 are shown in brackets.

  • prefix_nocase_attr - ignore case-sensitivity of CURIE prefixes defined via @prefix attribute. [0, 1]
  • prefix_nocase_xmlns - ignore case-sensitivity of CURIE prefixes defined via xmlns. [0, 1]
  • profile_attr - THIS OPTION IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED!
  • profile_pi - THIS OPTION IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED!
  • property_resources - @property works for resources [0, 1]
  • role_attr - support for XHTML @role [0]
  • safe_anywhere - allow Safe CURIEs in @rel/@rev/etc. [0, 1]
  • safe_optional - allow Unsafe CURIEs in @about/@resource. [0, 1]
  • skolemize - mint URIs instead of blank node identifiers. [0]
  • src_sets_object - @src sets object URI (like @href) [0, 1]
  • tdb_service - use thing-described-by.org to name some bnodes. [0]
  • typeof_resources - allow @typeof to occasionally apply to objects rather than subjects. [0, 1]
  • user_agent - a User-Agent header to use for HTTP requests. Ignored if lwp_ua is provided. [undef]
  • use_rtnlx - use RDF::Trine::Node::Literal::XML. 0=no, 1=if available. [0]
  • value_attr - support @value attribute (like @content) [0]
  • vocab_attr - support @vocab from RDFa 1.1. [0, 1]
  • vocab_default - default vocab URI (e.g. rel=``foo''). [undef]
  • vocab_triple - generate triple from @vocab. [0, 1]
  • xhtml_base - process <base> element. 0=no, 1=yes, 2=use it for RDF/XML too. [1]
  • xhtml_elements - process <head> and <body> specially. (Different special handling for XHTML+RDFa 1.0 and 1.1.) [1, 2]
  • xhtml_lang - support @lang rather than just @xml:lang. [0]
  • xml_base - support for 'xml:base' attribute. 0=only RDF/XML; 1=except @href/@src; 2=always. [0]

  • xmllit_recurse - Look for RDFa inside XMLLiterals. [0, 1]
  • xmlns_attr - Support for 'xmlns:foo' to define CURIE prefixes. [1]

An alternative constructor "tagsoup" is provided with a useful set of options for dealing with content ``from the wild''.

EXAMPLES

The following full example parses RDFa 1.1 in an Atom document, also using the non-default 'atom_parser' option which parses native Atom elements into the graph too.

  use RDF::RDFa::Parser;
  
  $config = RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->new(
    RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->HOST_ATOM,
    RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->RDFA_11,
    atom_parser => 1,
    );
  $parser = RDF::RDFa::Parser->new_from_url($url, $config);
  $data   = $parser->graph;

The following configuration set parses XHTML+RDFa 1.1 while also parsing any RDF/XML chunks that are embedded in the document.

  use RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config qw(HOST_XHTML RDFA_11);
  $config = RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->new(
    HOST_XHTML, RDFA_11, embedded_rdfxml=>1);
  $parser = RDF::RDFa::Parser->new_from_url($url, $config);
  $data   = $parser->graph;

The following config is good for dealing with (X)HTML content from the wild:

  $config = RDF::RDFa::Parser::Config->tagsoup;
  $parser = RDF::RDFa::Parser->new_from_url($url, $config);
  $data   = $parser->graph;
