5.1 Public Interface


5.1.1 Special variables

Special Variable: *4store-server*

4store host address

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Special Variable: *graph*

Knowledge base graph

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.


5.1.2 Macros

Macro: with-4store-server (value &body body)
Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Macro: with-graph (value &body body)
Package

4store.

5.1.3 Ordinary functions

Function: delete-all-triples (&optional graph server-url)

Deletes _all_ triples in the specified graph.

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Function: delete-graph (&optional graph-name server-url)

Deletes the identified graph.
Currently known not to work; despite being semantically correct and receiving a success code from the server.

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Function: delete-triples (triples &optional graph server-url)

Remove the supplied set of triples from the graph.
Expects the ’triples argument to be a list of three-element lists. If the Object is plain text, it’s expected to already be quoted.

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Function: get-graphs-list (&optional server-url)
Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Function: get-triples-list (&optional graph server-url)

Retrieves all triples in the store.
Useful for smoke-testing; use with caution in large stores, because it returns _everything_.

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Function: insert-triples (triples &optional graph server-url)

Inserts a list of triples into the store.
The ’triples argument is expected to be a list of proper lists, each containing subject, predicate and object.

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Function: select-rdfs-classes (&optional server-url)

Select all the RDFS classses in the knowledgebase. Return the multiple values from the query POSTed to the knowledgebase’s sparql http end-point. The first value is the body of the response in the sparql query results XML format.

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Function: sparql-server-put-data-request (filepath &optional graphname server-url)

Perform an HTTP put request with the data contained in a file. Arguments:
- the base url pathname of the SPARQL server
- relative URL component (i.e, the graph name)
- the path to the file
Assumes that the input file is valid RDF/XML

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Function: sparql-server-status-request (&optional server-url)

Returns the numeric HTTP status code from the server. If all is well, the return code will be 200 (for OK).

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.

Function: sparql-update (data &optional method server-url)

Send a SPARQL update request to the server, and return the result. Expects a valid SPARQL query for its second argument, in a text string. Uses POST by default, but the :method keyword argument can be used to force POST, PUT, DELETE or whatever other method tickles your fancy.

Package

4store.

Source

cl4store.lisp.
