JsonLD [![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/lanthaler/JsonLD.png?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/lanthaler/JsonLD)
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
JsonLD is a fully conforming [JSON-LD](http://www.w3.org/TR/json-ld/)
|
|
processor written in PHP. It is extensively tested and passes the
|
|
[official JSON-LD test suite](https://github.com/json-ld/tests).
|
|
|
|
There's an [online playground](http://www.markus-lanthaler.com/jsonld/playground/)
|
|
where you can evaluate the processor's basic functionality.
|
|
|
|
Additionally to the features defined by the [JSON-LD API specification](http://www.w3.org/TR/json-ld-api/),
|
|
JsonLD supports [framing](http://json-ld.org/spec/latest/json-ld-framing/)
|
|
(including [value matching](https://github.com/json-ld/json-ld.org/issues/110),
|
|
[deep-filtering](https://github.com/json-ld/json-ld.org/issues/110),
|
|
[aggressive re-embedding](https://github.com/json-ld/json-ld.org/issues/119), and
|
|
[named graphs](https://github.com/json-ld/json-ld.org/issues/118)) and an experimental
|
|
[object-oriented interface for JSON-LD documents](https://github.com/lanthaler/JsonLD/issues/15).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to install `JsonLD` is by requiring it with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/).
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
composer require ml/json-ld
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
... and including Composer's autoloader to your project
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
require('vendor/autoload.php');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Of course, you can also download JsonLD as
|
|
[ZIP archive](https://github.com/lanthaler/JsonLD/releases) from Github.
|
|
|
|
JsonLD requires PHP 5.3 or later.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The library supports the official [JSON-LD API](http://www.w3.org/TR/json-ld-api/) as
|
|
well as a object-oriented interface for JSON-LD documents (not fully implemented yet,
|
|
see [issue #15](https://github.com/lanthaler/JsonLD/issues/15) for details).
|
|
|
|
All classes are extensively documented. Please have a look at the source code.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// Official JSON-LD API
|
|
$expanded = JsonLD::expand('document.jsonld');
|
|
$compacted = JsonLD::compact('document.jsonld', 'context.jsonld');
|
|
$framed = JsonLD::frame('document.jsonld', 'frame.jsonld');
|
|
$flattened = JsonLD::flatten('document.jsonld');
|
|
$quads = JsonLD::toRdf('document.jsonld');
|
|
|
|
// Output the expanded document (pretty print)
|
|
print JsonLD::toString($expanded, true);
|
|
|
|
// Serialize the quads as N-Quads
|
|
$nquads = new NQuads();
|
|
$serialized = $nquads->serialize($quads);
|
|
print $serialized;
|
|
|
|
// And parse them again to a JSON-LD document
|
|
$quads = $nquads->parse($serialized);
|
|
$document = JsonLD::fromRdf($quads);
|
|
|
|
print JsonLD::toString($document, true);
|
|
|
|
// Node-centric API
|
|
$doc = JsonLD::getDocument('document.jsonld');
|
|
|
|
// get the default graph
|
|
$graph = $doc->getGraph();
|
|
|
|
// get all nodes in the graph
|
|
$nodes = $graph->getNodes();
|
|
|
|
// retrieve a node by ID
|
|
$node = $graph->getNode('http://example.com/node1');
|
|
|
|
// get a property
|
|
$node->getProperty('http://example.com/vocab/name');
|
|
|
|
// add a new blank node to the graph
|
|
$newNode = $graph->createNode();
|
|
|
|
// link the new blank node to the existing node
|
|
$node->addPropertyValue('http://example.com/vocab/link', $newNode);
|
|
|
|
// even reverse properties are supported; this returns $newNode
|
|
$node->getReverseProperty('http://example.com/vocab/link');
|
|
|
|
// serialize the graph and convert it to a string
|
|
$serialized = JsonLD::toString($graph->toJsonLd());
|
|
```
