SYNOPSIS

use RDF::Trine qw(literal);
use RDF::Trine::VariableBindings;
my $vb = RDF::Trine::VariableBindings->new( {} );
$vb->set( foo => literal("bar") );
$vb->set( baz => literal("blee") );
$vb->variables; # qw(foo baz)

my $x = RDF::Trine::VariableBindings->new( { foo => literal("bar") } );
$x->set( greeting => literal("hello") );
my $j = $vb->join( $x ); # { foo => "bar", baz => "blee", greeting => "hello" }
my @keys = qw(baz greeting);
my $p = $j->project( @keys ); # { baz => "blee", greeting => "hello" }
print $p->{greeting}->literal_value; # "hello"

DESCRIPTION

RDF::Trine::VariableBindings objects provide a mapping from variable names to RDF::Trine::Node objects. The objects may be used as a hash reference, with variable names used as hash keys.

METHODS

"new ( \%bindings )"

"set ( $variable_name => $node )"

"join ( $row )"

Returns a new VariableBindings object based on the join of this object and $row. If the two variable binding objects cannot be joined, returns undef.

"variables"

"project ( @keys )"

Returns a new binding with values for only the keys listed.

"as_string"

Returns a string representation of the variable bindings.

"label ( $label => $value )"

Sets the named $label to $value for this variable bindings object. If no $value is given, returns the current label value, or undef if none exists.

"copy_labels_from ( $vb )"

Copies the labels from $vb, adding them to the labels for this object.
