STRequests.Metadata()

Method Detail

<static> STRequests.Metadata.addFromLocalFile(baseuri, localFilePath, mirrorFile)

imports an ontology from a file in the local file system. The imported ontology is cached in a local file in Semantic Turkey's ontologies mirror location
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
baseuri
localFilePath: the path to the source file which is imported in the current ontology
mirrorFile: the name of the cache file which is saved locally in the ontologies mirror of Semantic Turkey

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.addFromOntologyMirror(baseuri, mirrorFile)

imports an ontology by taking its content directly from the ontologies mirror of Semantic Turkey
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
baseuri
mirrorFile: the name of the cache file which is imported into current ontology

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.addFromWeb(baseuri, alturl)

imports an ontology from the Web. The imported ontology is considered to be always available from the Web, so it is always rrefreshed each time the working ontology is being reloaded
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
baseuri
alturl: if the baseuri is different from the phisical location of the ontology, then alturl specifies where to look for the file to be downloaded

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.addFromWebToMirror(baseuri, mirrorFile, alturl)

imports an ontology from the Web to a local cache. The imported ontology is cached in a local file in Semantic Turkey's ontologies mirror location
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
baseuri
mirrorFile: the name of the cache file which is saved locally in the ontologies mirror of Semantic Turkey
alturl: if the baseuri is different from the phisical location of the ontology, then alturl specifies where to look for the file to be downloaded

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.changeNSPrefixMapping(prefix, namespace)

overwrites an entry in the prefix-namespace mapping table
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
prefix
namespace

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.downloadFromWeb(baseuri, alturl)

as for addFromWeb, excepts that this does not add an owl:imports statement to the current ontology. It is mainly used to recover failed downloads of the content of ontologies which have already been declared to be imported
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
baseuri
alturl

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.downloadFromWebToMirror(baseuri, mirrorFile, alturl)

as for addFromWebToMirror, excepts that this does not add an owl:imports statement to the current ontology. It is mainly used to recover failed downloads of the content of ontologies which have already been declared to be imported
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
baseuri
mirrorFile
alturl

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.getBaseuri()

returns the baseuri of the current ontology
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.getDefaultNamespace()

returns the default namespace of the current ontology
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.getFromLocalFile(baseuri, localFilePath, mirrorFile, alturl)

as for addFromLocalFile, excepts that this does not add an owl:imports statement to the current ontology. It is mainly used to recover failed downloads of the content of ontologies which have already been declared to be imported
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
baseuri
localFilePath
mirrorFile
alturl

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.getImports()

returns a tree forest representing current ontology imports. The roots of this forest list ontologies directly imported from the current ontology, while subsequent nodes represent recursive imports
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.getNamedGraphs()

returns the list of named graphs for the current ontology. By default, Semantic Turkey associates named graphs to triples of imported ontologies, as well as to application and support ontologies
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.getNSPrefixMappings()

returns a list of mappings between prefixes and namespaces. Also, for each entry it is told whether this mapping has been provided by the system (because it has been automatically guessed from the namespace name, or because it is a mapping specified in one of the imported ontologies) or if has been explictly setup by the user
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.getOntologyDescription()

returns the description of resource representing the current ontology
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.mirrorOntology(baseuri, mirrorFile)

mirrors an ontology which has already been imported
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
baseuri
mirrorFile

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.removeImport(baseuri)

removes an import from the ontology of the current project. This operation deletes the named graph associated to this import and the triples associated to the named graph
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
baseuri

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.removeNSPrefixMapping(namespace)

deletes a mapping from the prefix-namespace mapping table
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
namespace

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.setBaseuri(uri)

sets the baseuri for the ontology of the current project
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
uri

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.setBaseuriDefNamespace(baseuri, namespace)

sets both baseuri and default namespace for the ontology of the current project
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
baseuri
namespace

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.setDefaultNamespace(namespace)

sets the default namespace for the ontology of the current project
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
namespace

Returns:

<static> STRequests.Metadata.setNSPrefixMapping(prefix, namespace)

adds a mapping between a namespace and a chosen prefix
Defined in: SERVICE_Metadata.js.

Parameters:
prefix
namespace

Returns:
