NAME

       rdfproc - Redland RDF processor utility

SYNOPSIS

       rdfproc [options] store-name command arg...

EXAMPLE

       rdfproc test print
       rdfproc test serialize ntriples

DESCRIPTION

       The rdfproc utility allows parsing, querying, manipulating and  serializing of RDF content
       using the Redland RDF library.   The store-name is a Redland store name, typically a short
       identifier.  The arguments to command vary and are explained in section COMMANDS below.

OPTIONS

       rdfproc 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.

       -c, --contexts
              Use a store with Redland contexts.

       -n, --new
              Make a new store, overwriting any existing one.

       -o, --output FORMAT
              Set  the  output  FORMAT  for  sequences  of  triples,  such as from a search (find
              command) to a Redland serializer.  Use -h or -o  help  to  see  the  full  list  of
              supported formats.

       -p, --password
              Read  the storage option 'password' from standard input.  Terminated by end of line
              ('\n') or end of file.  This is equivalent to setting it  using  -t  or  --storage-
              options but does not require exposing the password in the argument list.

       -q, --quiet
              Suppress informational messages (that go to stderr)

       -r, --results FORMAT
              Set  the  query  results  syntax format.  Use -h or -r help to see the full list of
              query result formats.

              The exact list of formats depends on what libraptor(3) was built with but is  given
              correct in the usage message with -h.

       -s, --storage TYPE
              Set   the  Redland  storage  type  (default  'hashes').   If  environment  variable
              RDFPROC_STORAGE_TYPE is set, the storage type given here will override it.  Use  -h
              or -s help to see the full list of query result formats.

       -t, --storage-options OPTIONS
              Set  options  for the the Redland storage, default is "hash-type='bdb',dir='.'"  to
              match the default storage "hashes".  For storages types such as 'mysql'  that  need
              extra      options      this      would     typically     be     something     like
              "host='hostname',database='dbname',user='abc',password='pass'".    If   environment
              variable  RDFPROC_STORAGE_OPTIONS  is  set,  the storage options given here will be
              applied afterwards.

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

       -V, --verbose
              Show informational messages on stderr.

COMMANDS

       Where a node is allowed,  such  as  NODE,  SUBJECT,  PREDICATE  or  OBJECT  below,  simple
       heuristics  are used to guess which are blank node identifiers, URIs or literals (to add a
       statement with a literal, use add-typed).  If the item starts with _: then it  is  assumed
       to  be a blank node identifier, otherwise if it matches something:// it is assumed to be a
       URI, otherwise it is a literal.  Literals are only allowed as objects  of  statements  and
       blank nodes are not allowed as predicates.

       add SUBJECT PREDICATE OBJECT [CONTEXT]
              Add  the given triple to graph, in the optional Redland context if the CONTEXT node
              is given.

       add-typed SUBJECT PREDICATE OBJECT OBJECT-LANG OBJECT-URI [CONTEXT]
              Add the triple with the datatyped literal object to  the  graph,  in  the  optional
              Redland context if CONTEXT is given.

       arc SUBJECT OBJECT

       arcs SUBJECT OBJECT
              Show one node/all nodes that match triples (SUBJECT, ?, OBJECT)

       arcs-in NODE
              Show all properties of triples with NODE as a subject.

       arcs-out NODE
              Show all properties of triples with NODE as an object.

       contains SUBJECT PREDICATE OBJECT
              Check if the given triple is in the graph.

       contexts
              List all the contexts in the graph (if contexts are enabled).

       find SUBJECT|- PREDICATE|- OBJECT|- [CONTEXT]
              Find  matching  triples  to  the  given  statement  where - stands for a blank that
              matches any node.  If CONTEXT is given, only search for  triples  in  that  context
              node.

       has-arc-in NODE ARC
              Check that there is a triple with NODE as a subject and ARC as a predicate.

       has-arc-out NODE ARC
              Check that there is a triple with NODE as a object and ARC as a predicate.

       parse URI|FILENAME [SYNTAX| [BASE URI]]
              Parse  syntax  at  URI  into  the  graph  using  SYNTAX  which can be one of rdfxml
              (RDF/XML, default), ntriples, turtle, rss-tag-soup (for all RSS and  Atoms),  grddl
              and  guess to use content hints and protocol information to work it out. (This list
              changes faster than  this  manual  page)  If  FILENAME  is  a  existing  file,  the
              appropriate  URI  will  be generated for it.  If parsing returns errors, the return
              code will be non-0.

       parse-stream URI|FILENAME [SYNTAX [BASE URI [CONTEXT]]
              Streaming parse syntax at URI into the graph using  SYNTAX  which  can  be  one  of
              rdfxml  (RDF/XML,  default)  or  ntriples.   If  FILENAME  is an existing file, the
              appropriate URI will be generated for it.  If the optional CONTEXT  URI  is  given,
              the  triples are added to that context.  If parsing returns errors, the return code
              will be non-0.

       print  Print the graph triples in a simple format showing context nodes if present.

       query NAME|- URI|- QUERY-STRING
              Run QUERY-STRING query in language NAME returning variable bindings, a  boolean  or
              RDF graph depending on the query.  Query language can be 'sparql' or 'rdql'.

       remove SUBJECT PREDICATE OBJECT [CONTEXT]
              Remove the given triple graph, in the optional Redland context if CONTEXT is given.

       remove-context CONTEXT
              Remove all triples in the graph with the Redland context CONTEXT.

       serialize [SYNTAX [URI [MIME-TYPE]]]
              Serializes  the  graph  to a syntax with a particular ISYNTAX URI or Internet Media
              Type/MIME   Type.    The   default   is   RDF/XML   (NAME   "rdfxml",   MIME   Type
              "application/rdf/xml")  if  none  of  the  above are given.  Other alternatives are
              "ntriples" (no MIME Type).

       source PREDICATE OBJECT

       sources PREDICATE OBJECT
              Show one node/all nodes that match triples (?, PREDICATE, OBJECT)

       target SUBJECT PREDICATE

       targets SUBJECT PREDICATE
              Show one node/all nodes that match triples (SUBJECT, PREDICATE, ?)

ENVIRONMENT

       RDFPROC_STORAGE_OPTIONS can be set to provide storage options instead of using the  option
       -t, --storage-options OPTIONS.  When both are given, command options are applied last.

       RDFPROC_STORAGE_TYPE  can be set to provide a storage type instead of using the option -s,
       --storage TYPE.  When both are given, the storage type from the command is used.
