NAME
RDF::RDFa::Generator - Generate data for RDFa serialization
DESCRIPTION
Constructor "$gen = RDF::RDFa::Generator->new(style => $style, %options)" Creates a new generator object. $style is one of the following case-sensitive strings: 'HTML::Head' (the default), 'HTML::Hidden' or 'HTML::Pretty'. You can also construct an object like this: $gen = RDF::RDFa::Generator::HTML::Head->new(%options); Options include: • base - the base URL where the output data will be published. This allows in some cases for the generated RDFa to include relative URIs. • data_context - if non-null, an Attean Blank or IRI object or an RDF::Trine::Node which indicates the context (named graph) containing the data to generate RDFa for. • namespacemap - a URI::NamespaceMap object containing preferred CURIE prefixes. This is the preferred method, see note below. • namespaces - a {prefix=>uri} hashref of preferred CURIE prefixes. • ns - a {uri=>prefix} hashref of preferred CURIE prefixes. DEPRECATED - use namespaces instead. • prefix_attr - use the @prefix attribute for CURIE prefixes (RDFa 1.1 only). Boolean, defaults to false. • safe_xml_literals - prevents XML literals from injecting arbitrary XHTML into the output. Boolean, defaults to FALSE. • title - assign a <title> element for generated XHTML documents. • version - set generated RDFa version. Valid values are '1.0' (the default) or '1.1'. Public Methods "$gen->create_document($model, %opts)" Creates a new RDFa file containing triples. $model is an RDF::Trine::Model object providing the triples. Returns an XML::LibXML::Document object suitable for serializing using its "toString" method. If you're planning on serving the RDFa with the text/html media type, then it is recommended that you use HTML::HTML5::Writer to serialize the document rather than "toString". Can also be called as a class method: $document = RDF::RDFa::Generator->create_document($model) # Same as: # $document = RDF::RDFa::Generator->new->create_document($model) Options can also be passed as a HASH. This is typically used for style-specific options. "$gen->inject_document($document, $model)" Injects an existing document with triples. $document is an XML::LibXML::Document to inject, or a well-formed XML string. $model is an RDF::Trine::Model object providing the triples. Returns an XML::LibXML::Document object suitable for serializing using its "toString" method. See "create_document" for information about serving the RDFa with the text/html media type. Can also be called as a class method. See "create_document" for details. "$gen->nodes($model)" Provides triple-laden XML::LibXML::Elements to be added to a document. $model is an RDF::Trine::Model object providing the triples. If called in list context, returns a list of XML::LibXML::Element objects which can be added to a document; otherwise returns an XML::LibXML::NodeList containing a list of such elements. Can also be called as a class method. See "create_document" for details. The HTML::Pretty generator can be passed a couple of additional options: $gen->nodes($model, notes_heading=>'Additional Info', notes=>\@notes); The notes are a list of RDF::RDFa::Generator::HTML::Pretty::Note objects which are added as notes to the end of each subject's data.
UPGRADING TO 0.200
The recommended upgrade path is to migrate your application to use Attean rather than RDF::Trine as your RDF library. If that is not an option, you may continue to use RDF::Trine, by using a compatibility layer. If you are using this module directly, to upgrade from earlier releases, you would simply add use RDF::TrineX::Compatibility::Attean; alongside the import of this module. It is in a separate distribution that needs to be installed. If you use the RDF::Trine::Serializer methods, you should instead use RDF::Trine::Serializer::RDFa.
NOTE
Version 0.200 introduced a large number of changes to be compatible with both Attean and RDF::Trine. Some of these were backwards-incompatible, some were to support new features, such as the use of URI::NamespaceMap. Backwards-incompatible changes The methods "serialize_model_to_file", "serialize_model_to_string", "serialize_iterator_to_file" and "serialize_iterator_to_string" that were provided for compatibility with the RDF::Trine::Serializer interface have been moved to a module RDF::Trine::Serializer::RDFa that has to be installed separately to use this with RDF::Trine. "data_context" previously accepted a plain-text string URI. Now, it requires an appropriate object, as documented. Since RDF 1.1 abandons untyped literals, this module also ceases to emit them. Namespace mappings The way namespace mappings are handled have been rewritten. Now, the preferred method to add them is to pass an URI::NamespaceMap object to "namespacemap". This will override any other options. The namespace mappings for the following prefixes will always be added: "rdfa", "rdf", "rdfs" and "xsd". If URI::NamespaceMap is not used, but "namespaces" is given as a hashref of prefix-URI pairs, the pairs will be added. If neither are given, all mappings from RDF::NS::Curated, which includes all if RDFa Initial Context will be added. Finally, any pairs from the deprecated "ns" option will be added, but a warning will be emitted.
