This is a ruby implementation of LDPath, a language for selecting values linked data resources.

[]

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'ldpath'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install ldpath

To support RDF serializations, you will need to either install the linkeddata gem which installs a large set of RDF serializations or, in order to have a smaller dependency footprint, install gems for only the serializations your plan to use in your app. The list of serializations are in the README for the linkeddata gem.

require 'ldpath'

my_program = <<-EOF
@prefix dcterms : <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> ;
title = dcterms:title :: xsd:string ;
EOF

uri = RDF::URI.new "info:a"

context = RDF::Graph.new << [uri, RDF::Vocab::DC.title, "Some Title"]

program = Ldpath::Program.parse my_program
output = program.evaluate uri, context: context
# => { ... }

• Ruby 2.5 or the latest 2.4 version is recommended. Later versions may also work.
