VERSION

This document describes RDF::Trine version 0.132_02

DESCRIPTION

RDF::Trine provides an RDF framework with an emphasis on extensibility, API stability, and the presence of a test suite. The package consists of several components:

• RDF::Trine::Model - RDF model providing access to a triple store.

• RDF::Trine::Parser - RDF parsers for various serialization formats including RDF/XML, Turtle, RDFa, and RDF/JSON.

• RDF::Trine::Store::Memory - An in-memory, non-persistant triple store.

• RDF::Trine::Store::DBI - A triple store for MySQL and SQLite, based on the Redland schema.

• RDF::Trine::Iterator - Iterator classes for variable bindings and RDF statements, used by RDF::Trine::Store, RDF::Trine::Model, and RDF::Query.

• RDF::Trine::Namespace - A convenience class for easily constructing RDF node objects from URI namespaces.
