NAME

       rapper - Raptor RDF parsing and serializing utility

SYNOPSIS

       rapper [OPTIONS] INPUT-URI [INPUT-BASE-URI]

EXAMPLE

       rapper -o ntriples http://planetrdf.com/guide/rss.rdf
       rapper -i rss-tag-soup -o rss-1.0 pile-of-rss.xml http://example.org/base/
       rapper --count http://example.org/index.rdf

DESCRIPTION

       The rapper utility allows parsing of RDF content by the Raptor RDF parser toolkit emitting
       the results as RDF triples in a choice of syntaxes.  The INPUT-URI can be a file name, '-'
       for standard input or if Raptor is built with a WWW retrieval library, a general URI.  The
       optional INPUT-BASE-URI is used as the document  parser  base  URI  if  present  otherwise
       defaults to the INPUT-URI.  A value of '-' means no base URI.

OPTIONS

       rapper  uses the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes
       (`-') if supported by the getopt_long function.  Otherwise  the  short  options  are  only
       available.

       -h, --help
              Show a summary of the options.

       -i, --input FORMAT
              Set  the input FORMAT to one of 'rdfxml' (RDF/XML, default), 'ntriples' (N-Triples,
              see below), 'turtle' (Turtle, see below) or 'rss-tag-soup' (RSS Tag Soup).  The RSS
              Tag  Soup  parser can turn the many XML RSS formats, Atom 0.3 and Atom 1.0 into RDF
              triples.

              The list of parsers depends on how libraptor(3) was built.  The list  of  supported
              parsers is given in the help summary given by -h.

       -I, --input-uri URI
              Set  the  input/parser  base  URI or use value '-' for no base.  The default is the
              INPUT-URI argument value.

       -o, --output FORMAT
              Set the output FORMAT  to  'ntriples'  (N-Triples,  default),  'rdfxml'  (RDF/XML),
              'rdfxml-abbrev' (RDF/XML with abbreviations) or 'rss-1.0' (RSS 1.0, also an RDF/XML
              syntax).

              The list of serializers depends  on  how  libraptor(3)  was  built.   The  list  of
              supported serializers is given in the help summary given by -h.

       -O, --output-uri URI
              Set  the  output/serializer  base URI or use value '-' for no base.  The default is
              the input base uri, either set by the argument INPUT-BASE-URI or  via  options  -I,
              --input-uri URI

       -c, --count
              Only count the triples and produce no other output.

       -e, --ignore-errors
              Ignore errors, do not emit the messages and try to continue parsing.

       -f, --feature FEATURE[=VALUE]
              Set a parser or serializer feature FEATURE to a value, or to 1 if VALUE is omitted,
              Use -f help to get lists of valid parser and serializer features.

              If the form -f 'xmlns:prefix="uri"' is used, the prefix  and  namespace  uri  given
              will  be  set  for  serializing.   The syntax matches XML in that either or both of
              prefix or uri can be omitted.

       -g, --guess
              Guess the parser to use from the source-URI rather than use the -i FORMAT.

       -q, --quiet
              No extra information messages.

       -r, --replace-newlines
              Replace newlines in multi-line literals with spaces.

       --show-graphs
              Print graph names (URIs) as they are seen in the input.  This only  has  a  meaning
              for parsers that support graph names such as the TRiG parser.

       --show-namespaces
              Print namespaces as they are seen in the input.

       -t, --trace
              Print  URIs  retrieved  during  parsing.  Especially useful for monitoring what the
              guess and GRDDL parsers are doing.

       -w, --ignore-warnings
              Ignore warnings, do not emit the messages.

       -v, --version
              Print the raptor version and exit.

       serializer) base URIs separately.

   1.4.15

   1.4.5
