Bad function in example/book.js

[librarywebchic]

I'm trying to work from https://github.com/linkeddata/rdflib.js/blob/master/example/people/book.js

But there is a function
kb.load(uri) which doesn't work.

I get an error that kb.load isn't a function

Has this function been deprecated or renamed?

@bblfish did you originally write this code? If so, would you mind taking a look?

It's too far in the past for me to be any better to work this out. I imagine over the past 3 years things have changed a lot..

I was hoping since there isn't documentation on what all the classes and functions are someone might know if this function has been deprecated or renamed.

I've never used this function so I dont know what it does. Or what it was supposed to do. Searching for load :

https://github.com/linkeddata/rdflib.js/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=load

This is the only place it's used.

What I normally use is nowOrWhenFetched to get a document.

e.g. https://github.com/linkeddata/rdflib.js/blob/master/example/people/book.js#L54

@bblfish perhaps you would want to consider removing this example or changing it, if it no longer works?

[bblfish]

It's probably meant to be "nowOrWhenFetched"

So in other linked data libraries, a load function adds the URI you pass to it the existing graph. Expanding the scope of the graph.
