Comunica SPARQL OSTRICH Init Actor

A comunica SPARQL OSTRICH Init Actor for querying versioned triple stores with OSTRICH.

This module is part of the Comunica framework.

Install

OSTRICH requires ZLib, Kyoto Cabinet and CMake (compilation only) to be installed.

$ yarn add @comunica/actor-init-sparql-ostrich

Usage from the command line

Show 100 triples from version 1 from an OSTRICH store:

$ comunica-sparql-ostrich [email protected] "CONSTRUCT WHERE { GRAPH <http://graph.version.1> { ?s ?p ?o } } LIMIT 100"

Show 100 triples from the latest version from an OSTRICH store:

$ comunica-sparql-ostrich [email protected] "CONSTRUCT WHERE { ?s ?p ?o } LIMIT 100"

Show the help with all options:

$ comunica-sparql-ostrich --help

Usage within application

This engine can be used in JavaScript/TypeScript applications as follows:

const newEngine = require('@comunica/actor-init-sparql-ostrich').newEngine;
const myEngine = newEngine();

const result = await myEngine.query(`
  SELECT ?s ?p ?o WHERE {
    ?s ?p <http://dbpedia.org/resource/Belgium>.
    ?s ?p ?o
  } LIMIT 100`, {
  sources: [{ type: 'ostrichFile', value: 'myStore.ostrich' }],
});

// Consume results as a stream (best performance)
result.bindingsStream.on('data', (binding) => {
    console.log(binding.get('?s').value);
    console.log(binding.get('?s').termType);

    console.log(binding.get('?p').value);

    console.log(binding.get('?o').value);
});

// Consume results as an array (easier)
const bindings = await result.bindings();
console.log(bindings[0].get('?s').value);
console.log(bindings[0].get('?s').termType);

Usage as a SPARQL endpoint

Start a webservice exposing http://fragments.dbpedia.org/2015-10/en via the SPARQL protocol, i.e., a SPARQL endpoint.

$ comunica-sparql-ostrich-http [email protected]

Show the help with all options:

$ comunica-sparql-ostrich-http --help

The SPARQL endpoint can only be started dynamically. An alternative config file can be passed via the COMUNICA_CONFIG environment variable.

Use bin/http.js when running in the Comunica monorepo development environment.
