In cboettig/rdftools: Common tools for RDF data

rdftools

:package: Common utilities for RDF. Currently the package merely provides a write_nquads S3 method for data.frame and list objects to coerce them into the N-Quads format. Additional utilities may be added at a later date.

Installation

You can install the released version of rdftools from GitHub with:

remotes::install_github("cboettig/rdftools")

Basic utilities

rdftools can write data.frame and list objects into the Resource Description Format (RDF) as an nquads file. This can then be imported into common RDF Databases. See virtuoso or rdflib for examples importing nquads files and working with RDF.

library(rdftools)

write_nquads(iris, "iris.nq", prefix = "iris")

x <- list(A1 = list(B = 1, C = 2), A2 = "bob")
write_nquads(x, "a_list.nq", prefix = "x")

Experimental DSL

rdftools also hosts an experimental DSL for constructing SPARQL queries.
