NAME

RDFStore::Serializer - Interface to an RDF model/graph serializer

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
use RDFStore::Serializer;
my $model= new RDFStore::Model();
$model->add($statement);
$model->add($statement1);
$model->add($statement2);
my $serializer = new RDFStore::Serializer;
my $rdf = $serializer->serialize( $model ); # serialise model to a string in-memory
my $rdf = $serializer->serialize( $model, undef, {}, $base ); # using xml:base
my $rdf = $serializer->serialize( $model, undef, { 'http://mynamespace.org/blaaa/' => blaa } ); # using my blaa namespace
$serializer->serialize( $model, *STREAM ); # serialise model to a given file descriptor (stream)
            
          

DESCRIPTION

An RDFStore::Model serializer.

CONSTRUCTORS

The following methods construct RDFStore::Serializer:

new ()

            

              
              
Create an new RDFStore::Serializer object to serialize and RDFStore::Model.
            
          

METHODS

write ( MODEL [ , FILEHANDLE_REF, NAMESPACES, BASE ] )

            

              
              
Write out the given MODEL to FILEHANDLE_REF (or in-memory string if not passed) using a given list of NAMESPACES and xml:base BASE if passed. The NAMESPACES hash ref contains a list of namespace values (URI refs) and prefix names - see RDFStore::Vocabulary::Generator(3). By default the output is returned from the method into a string otheriwse a valid (and opened) FILEHANLDE_REF can be passed, which will be being printed to.
            
          

serialize ( MODEL [ , FILEHANDLE_REF, NAMESPACES, BASE ] )

            

              
              
Same as write method above.
