RDF Graph Utilities

This Python module is a collection of RDF manipulation and filtering tools initially targeted at BIBFRAME vocabulary work.

To use

Run the following command from this directory to run all of the SPARQL statements against a triplestore SPARQL endpoint using REST.

python3 run.py languages

Run the following command to pull a graph

python run.py graph --pulltype all --sparqlselect "?s1 a bf:Language" --filename "bibcatlanguages.ttl"

default graphargs = "{'pulltype':'all','sparqlselect':
                     "?s1 a bf:Language','format':'application/x-turtle',
                     'filename':'bibcatlanguages.ttl'}"

**** use json object notation; both object and value must have quotes

'pulltype': 'all'--write triple statement in 'sparqlselect' 'resource'--write resourceURI in the 'resourceURI' variable

'resourceuri': used with 'pulltype'=resource -- write resourceURI as a string WITHOUT <>

'sparqlselect': used with 'pulltype'=all -- write the sparql triple to statment to select the the resources that you want. variable ?s1 must contain the list of resource URIs example: ?s1 rdf:type bf:Language --will return all the language graphs

'format': Use the header value of the rest API of the desired outputtype Example: for turtle 'application/x-turtle'

'filename': 'default' will use the sparql header provided filename. otherwise specify your own value
