Interface RDFParser

All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractRDFParser, BinaryRDFParser, HDTParser, JSONLDParser, N3Parser, NDJSONLDParser, NQuadsParser, NTriplesParser, RDFJSONParser, RDFXMLParser, SPARQLUpdateDataBlockParser, SPARQLUpdateDataBlockParser, TriGParser, TriGStarParser, TriXParser, TurtleParser, TurtleStarParser, XMLReaderBasedParser

public interface RDFParser
An interface for RDF parsers. All implementing classes should define a public zero-argument constructor to allow them to be created through reflection.
  • Method Details

    • getRDFFormat

      RDFFormat getRDFFormat()
      Gets the RDF format that this parser can parse.
    • setValueFactory

      RDFParser setValueFactory(ValueFactory valueFactory)
      Sets the ValueFactory that the parser will use to create Value objects for the parsed RDF data.
      Parameters:
      valueFactory - The value factory that the parser should use.
      Returns:
      Either a copy of this parser, if it is immutable, or this object, to allow chaining of method calls.
    • setRDFHandler

      RDFParser setRDFHandler(RDFHandler handler)
      Sets the RDFHandler that will handle the parsed RDF data.
      Parameters:
      handler - The RDFHandler to handle the parsed data.
      Returns:
      Either a copy of this parser, if it is immutable, or this object, to allow chaining of method calls.
    • setParseErrorListener

      RDFParser setParseErrorListener(ParseErrorListener el)
      Sets the ParseErrorListener that will be notified of any errors that this parser finds during parsing.
      Parameters:
      el - The ParseErrorListener that will be notified of errors or warnings.
      Returns:
      Either a copy of this parser, if it is immutable, or this object, to allow chaining of method calls.
    • setParseLocationListener

      RDFParser setParseLocationListener(ParseLocationListener ll)
      Sets the ParseLocationListener that will be notified of the parser's progress during the parse process.
      Parameters:
      ll - The ParseLocationListener that will be notified of the parser's progress.
      Returns:
      Either a copy of this parser, if it is immutable, or this object, to allow chaining of method calls.
    • setParserConfig

      RDFParser setParserConfig(ParserConfig config)
      Sets all supplied parser configuration options.
      Parameters:
      config - a parser configuration object.
      Returns:
      Either a copy of this parser, if it is immutable, or this object, to allow chaining of method calls.
    • getParserConfig

      ParserConfig getParserConfig()
      Retrieves the current parser configuration as a single object.
      Returns:
      a parser configuration object representing the current configuration of the parser.
    • getSupportedSettings

      Collection<RioSetting<?>> getSupportedSettings()
      Returns:
      A collection of RioSettings that are supported by this RDFParser.
    • set

      <T> RDFParser set(RioSetting<T> setting, T value)
      Set a setting on the parser, and return this parser object to allow chaining.
      Parameters:
      setting - The setting to change.
      value - The value to change.
      Returns:
      Either a copy of this parser, if it is immutable, or this object, to allow chaining of method calls.
    • setPreserveBNodeIDs

      void setPreserveBNodeIDs(boolean preserveBNodeIDs)
      Set whether the parser should preserve bnode identifiers specified in the source (default is false).
    • parse

      Parses the data from the supplied InputStream.
      Parameters:
      in - The InputStream from which to read the data.
      Throws:
      IOException - If an I/O error occurred while data was read from the InputStream.
      RDFParseException - If the parser has found an unrecoverable parse error.
      RDFHandlerException - If the configured statement handler has encountered an unrecoverable error.
      Since:
      3.5.0
    • parse

      Parses the data from the supplied InputStream, using the supplied baseURI to resolve any relative URI references.
      Parameters:
      in - The InputStream from which to read the data.
      baseURI - The URI associated with the data in the InputStream. May be null. Parsers for syntax formats that do not support relative URIs will ignore this argument.

      Note that if the data contains an embedded base URI, that embedded base URI will overrule the value supplied here (see RFC 3986 section 5.1 for details).

      Throws:
      IOException - If an I/O error occurred while data was read from the InputStream.
      RDFParseException - If the parser has found an unrecoverable parse error.
      RDFHandlerException - If the configured statement handler has encountered an unrecoverable error.
    • parse

      default void parse(Reader reader) throws IOException, RDFParseException, RDFHandlerException
      Parses the data from the supplied Reader.
      Parameters:
      reader - The Reader from which to read the data.
      Throws:
      IOException - If an I/O error occurred while data was read from the InputStream.
      RDFParseException - If the parser has found an unrecoverable parse error.
      RDFHandlerException - If the configured statement handler has encountered an unrecoverable error.
      Since:
      3.5.0

      Throws:
      IOException - If an I/O error occurred while data was read from the InputStream.
      RDFParseException - If the parser has found an unrecoverable parse error.
