NAME¶
RDF::Trine::Iterator::Bindings - Iterator class for bindings query results
VERSION¶
This document describes RDF::Trine::Iterator::Bindings version 1.011
SYNOPSIS¶
use RDF::Trine::Iterator::Bindings;
my $iterator = RDF::Trine::Iterator::Bindings->new( \&data, \@names );
while (my $row = $iterator->next) {
# $row is a HASHref containing variable name -> RDF Term bindings
my @vars = keys %$row;
print $row->{ 'var' }->as_string;
}
METHODS¶
Beyond the methods documented below, this class inherits methods from the
RDF::Trine::Iterator class.
- "new ( \@results, \@names, %args )"
- "new ( \&results, \@names, %args )"
- Returns a new SPARQL Result interator object. Results must be either a
reference to an array containing results or a CODE reference that acts as
an iterator, returning successive items when called, and returning undef
when the iterator is exhausted.
- "materialize"
- Returns a materialized version of the current binding iterator. The
materialization process will leave this iterator empty. The materialized
iterator that is returned should be used for any future need for the
iterator's data.
- "project ( @columns )"
- Returns a new stream that projects the current bindings to only the given
columns.
- "join_streams ( $stream, $stream )"
- Performs a natural, nested loop join of the two streams, returning a new
stream of joined results.
- "nested_loop_join ( $outer, $inner )"
- Performs a natural, nested loop join of the two streams, returning a new
stream of joined results.
Note that the values from the $inner iterator are fully materialized for
this join, and the results of the join are in the order of values from the
$outer iterator. This suggests that:
* If sorting needs to be preserved, the $outer iterator should be used to
determine the result ordering.
* If one iterator is much smaller than the other, it should likely be used
as the $inner iterator since materialization will require less total
memory.
- "sorted_by"
- "binding_value_by_name ( $name )"
- Returns the binding of the named variable in the current result.
- "binding_value ( $i )"
- Returns the binding of the $i-th variable in the current result.
- "binding_values"
- Returns a list of the binding values from the current result.
- "binding_names"
- Returns a list of the binding names.
- "binding_name ( $i )"
- Returns the name of the $i-th result column.
- "bindings_count"
- Returns the number of variable bindings in the current result.
- "is_bindings"
- Returns true if the underlying result is a set of variable bindings.
- "as_json ( $max_size )"
- Returns a JSON serialization of the stream data.
- "as_xml ( $max_size )"
- Returns an XML serialization of the stream data.
- "as_string ( $max_size [, \$count] )"
- Returns a string table serialization of the stream data.
- "as_statements ( $pattern | @names )"
- Returns a RDF::Trine::Iterator::Graph with the statements of the stream.
If $pattern, an RDF::Trine::Pattern object, is given as an argument, each of
its triples are instantiated with variable bindings from each row of the
iterator, and returned as RDF::Trine::Statement objects from a new
RDF::Trine::Iterator::Graph iterator.
If 3 variable @names are supplied, their corresponding variable bindings in
each row of the iterator are used (in order) as the subject, predicate,
and object of new RDF::Trine::Statement objects and returned from a new
RDF::Trine::Iterator::Graph iterator.
- "print_xml ( $fh, $max_size )"
- Prints an XML serialization of the stream data to the filehandle $fh.
- "construct_args"
- Returns the arguments necessary to pass to the stream constructor _new to
re-create this stream (assuming the same closure as the first
argument).
