NAME
       URI::NamespaceMap - Class holding a collection of namespaces


VERSION
       Version 0.06


SYNOPSIS
         use URI::NamespaceMap;
         my $map = URI::NamespaceMap->new( { xsd => 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#' } );
         $map->namespace_uri('xsd')->as_string;
         my $foaf = URI::Namespace->new( 'http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/' );
         $map->add_mapping(foaf => $foaf);
         $map->add_mapping(rdf => 'http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#' );
         $map->list_prefixes;  #  ( 'foaf', 'rdf', 'xsd' )


DESCRIPTION
       This module provides an object to manage multiple namespaces for creating URI::Namespace objects and for
       serializing.


METHODS
       "new ( [ \%namespaces ] )"
           Returns a new namespace map object. You can pass a hash reference with mappings from local names to
           namespace URIs (given as string or RDF::Trine::Node::Resource) or namespaces_map with a hashref.

       "add_mapping ( $name => $uri )"
           Adds a new namespace to the map. The namespace URI can be passed as string or a URI::Namespace
           object.

       "remove_mapping ( $name )"
           Removes a namespace from the map given a prefix.

       "namespace_uri ( $name )"
           Returns the namespace object (if any) associated with the given prefix.

       "list_namespaces"
           Returns an array of URI::Namespace objects with all the namespaces.

       "list_prefixes"
           Returns an array of prefixes.

       "uri ( $prefixed_name )"
           Returns a URI for an abbreviated string such as 'foaf:Person'.

       prefix_for "uri ($uri)"
           Returns the associated prefix (or potentially multiple prefixes, when called in list context) for the
           given URI.

       abbreviate "uri ($uri)"
           Complement to "namespace_uri". Returns the given URI in "foo:bar" format or "undef" if it wasn't
           matched, therefore the idiom

               my $str = $nsmap->abbreviate($uri_node) || $uri->as_string;

           may be useful for certain serialization tasks.


WARNING
       Avoid using the names 'can', 'isa', 'VERSION', and 'DOES' as namespace prefix, because these names are
       defined as method for every Perl object by default. The method names 'new' and 'uri' are also forbidden.
       Names of methods of Moose::Object must also be avoided.
