Module: ActiveTriples::Repositories

Defined in:
lib/active_triples/repositories.rb

Overview

Defines module methods for registering an RDF::Repository for persistence of Resources.

This allows any triplestore (or other storage platform) with an RDF::Repository implementation to be used for persistence of resources that will be shared between ActiveFedora::Base objects.

ActiveTriples::Repositories.add_repository :blah, RDF::Repository.new

Multiple repositories can be registered to keep different kinds of resources seperate. This is configurable on subclasses of Resource at the class level.
