#apply_schema(schema, strategy = ActiveTriples::ExtensionStrategy) ⇒ Object

Apply a predicate mapping using a given strategy.

Parameters:

  • schema (ActiveTriples::Schema, #properties) —

    A schema to apply.

  • strategy (#apply!) (defaults to: ActiveTriples::ExtensionStrategy) —

    strategy.apply(self, property)
  end
end

#from_uri(uri, vals = nil) ⇒ ActiveTriples::Entity

Adapter for a consistent interface for creating a new Resource from a URI. Similar functionality should exist in all objects which can become a Resource.

Parameters:

  • uri (#to_uri, String)
  • vals (defaults to: nil) —

    values to pass as arguments to ::new

Returns:

  • (ActiveTriples::Entity) —

    a Resource with the given uri

  new(uri, vals)

#id_persisted?(test_id) ⇒ TrueClass, FalseClass

Test if the rdf_subject that would be generated using a specific ID is already in use in the triplestore.

Parameters:

  • ID (Integer, #read) —

    to test

Returns:

  • (TrueClass, FalseClass) —

    true, if the ID is in use in the triplestore; otherwise, false. NOTE: If the ID is in use in an object not yet

    persisted, false will be returned presenting
a window of opportunity for an ID clash.

  ActiveTriples::Repositories.has_subject?(rdf_subject)
end

#uri_persisted?(test_uri) ⇒ TrueClass, FalseClass

Test if the rdf_subject that would be generated using a specific URI is already in use in the triplestore.

Parameters:

  • URI (String, RDF::URI, #read) —

    to test

Returns:

  • (TrueClass, FalseClass) —

    true, if the URI is in use in the triplestore; otherwise, false. NOTE: If the URI is in use in an object not yet

    persisted, false will be returned presenting
a window of opportunity for an ID clash.
