Project description

A very small module to add Linked Data API functionality to a Python Flask installation

How to use

This module contains only a single Python file with a few static methods and classes that are indented to be added to a Flask API in order to add a series of extra functions to endpoints that the API delivers. It will also require the addition of one API endpoint - a ‘Register of Registers’ (see below) - if it is not already present.

An API using this module will get:

  • an alternates view for each Register and Object that the API delivers
    • if the API declares the appropriate model view s for each item

  • a Register of Registers
    • a start-up function that auto-generated a Register of Registers is run when the API is launched

  • a basic, over-writeable, template for Registers’ HTML & RDF

Definitions

  • alternates view: the model view that lists all other views. This API uses the definition of alternates view presented at https://promsns.org/def/alt

  • Linked Data principles: principles of making things available over the Internet in both human and machine readable forms. codified by the World Wide Web Consortium. See https://www.w3.org/standards/semanticweb/data

  • model view: a set of properties of a Linked Data object codified according to a standard or profile of a standard

  • Object: any individual thing delivered according to Linked Data principles

  • Register: a simple listing of URIs of objects, delivered according to Linked Data principles

  • Register of Registers: a a register that lists all other registers that an API provides
