This tutorial explains how to serialize and deserialize an XDI graph in any of the XDI serialization formats.
A typical application is to read an XDI graph from a file into memory, perform a few operations on it, and then store it again to file.
Serialization
Example Code:
package org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.tutorial; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.Graph; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.GraphFactory; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.impl.memory.MemoryGraphFactory; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.io.XDIWriter; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.io.XDIWriterRegistry; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.xri3.impl.XRI3Segment; /** * This example app shows how to output * a graph in different serialization formats. */ public class Tutorial2 { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { GraphFactory factory = MemoryGraphFactory.getInstance(); Graph graph = factory.openGraph(); // let's create a simple graph graph.createStatement(new XRI3Segment("=markus"), new XRI3Segment("+name"), "Markus"); graph.createStatement(new XRI3Segment("=markus"), new XRI3Segment("+friend"), new XRI3Segment("=giovanni")); // output the graph in X3 Simple and XDI/XML XDIWriter writer; writer = XDIWriterRegistry.forFormat("X3 Simple"); writer.write(graph, System.out, null); writer = XDIWriterRegistry.forFormat("XDI/XML"); writer.write(graph, System.out, null); graph.close(); } }
Deserialization
Example Code:
package org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.tutorial; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.Graph; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.GraphFactory; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.impl.memory.MemoryGraphFactory; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.io.XDIWriter; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.io.XDIWriterRegistry; import org.eclipse.higgins.xdi4j.xri3.impl.XRI3Segment; /** * This example app shows how to output * a graph in different serialization formats. */ public class Tutorial2 { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { GraphFactory factory = MemoryGraphFactory.getInstance(); Graph graph = factory.openGraph(); // let's create a simple graph graph.createStatement(new XRI3Segment("=alice"), new XRI3Segment("+name"), "Alice X."); graph.createStatement(new XRI3Segment("=alice"), new XRI3Segment("+friend"), new XRI3Segment("=bob")); // output the graph in X3 Simple and XDI/XML XDIWriter writer; writer = XDIWriterRegistry.forFormat("X3 Simple"); writer.write(graph, System.out, null); writer = XDIWriterRegistry.forFormat("XDI/XML"); writer.write(graph, System.out, null); graph.close(); } }
