Redland librdf is a library that provides a high-level interface for the Resource Description Framework (RDF) allowing the RDF graph to be parsed from XML, stored, queried and manipulated. Redland implements each of the RDF concepts in its own class via an object based API, reflected into the language APIs, currently Perl, PHP, Python and Ruby. Several classes providing functionality such as for parsers, storage are built as modules that can be loaded at compile or run-time as required.
The Redland librdf language bindings provides the higher level language APIs to Redland in the following languages.
The packaged sources are available from http://download.librdf.org/source/ (master site) and also from the SourceForge site. The development GIT sources can also be browsed on GitHub
This library is free software / open source software released under the LGPL 2.1 (GPL) or Apache 2.0 licenses. See LICENSE.html for full details.
See INSTALL.html for general installation and configuration information and the language specific documents for installing the interfaces in the current available APIs: Perl, PHP, Python or Ruby . There are no LUA docs at this time.
