# RDF.ex [![Travis](https://img.shields.io/travis/marcelotto/rdf-ex.svg?style=flat-square)](https://travis-ci.org/marcelotto/rdf-ex) [![Hex.pm](https://img.shields.io/hexpm/v/rdf.svg?style=flat-square)](https://hex.pm/packages/rdf) An implementation of the [RDF](https://www.w3.org/TR/rdf11-primer/) data model in Elixir. The API documentation can be found [here](https://hexdocs.pm/rdf/). For a guide and more information about RDF.ex and it's related projects, go to . ## Features - fully compatible with the RDF 1.1 specification - in-memory data structures for RDF descriptions, RDF graphs and RDF datasets - ability to execute [SPARQL] queries against the in-memory data structures via the [SPARQL.ex] package or against any SPARQL endpoint via the [SPARQL.Client] package - support for RDF vocabularies via Elixir modules for safe, i.e. compile-time checked and concise usage of IRIs - XML schema datatypes for RDF literals (not yet all supported) - sigils for the most common types of nodes, i.e. IRIs, literals, blank nodes and lists - a description DSL resembling Turtle in Elixir - implementations for the [N-Triples], [N-Quads] and [Turtle] serialization formats; [JSON-LD] is implemented in the separate [JSON-LD.ex] package - ability to validate data against [ShEx] schemas via the [ShEx.ex] package ## Contributing There's still much to do for a complete RDF ecosystem for Elixir, which means there are plenty of opportunities for you to contribute. Here are some suggestions: - more serialization formats - [RDFa] - [RDF-XML] - [N3] - et al. - more XSD datatypes - improve documentation see [CONTRIBUTING](CONTRIBUTING.md) for details. ## Consulting and Partnership If you need help with your Elixir and Linked Data projects, just contact or visit ## License and Copyright (c) 2017-2019 Marcel Otto.
