define list of RDF serialization formats #83
Comments
https://www.w3.org/TR/rdf12-concepts/#dfn-concrete-rdf-syntax normatively lists some example concrete RDF syntaxes. On a related note, there is also https://www.w3.org/ns/formats/ but that is not specifically about concrete RDF syntaxes. That said, there could be a separate Living Document (or similar) that lists all concrete RDF syntaxes which can then be referenced from RDF-CONCEPTS (and elsewhere). AFAIK, Microdata is not a classified as a "concrete RDF syntax" - although it could be transformed to a concrete RDF syntax, which is a separate step/matter, just as anything else that could potentially be transformed to RDF. RDFa is a concrete RDF syntax. N3 is a superset of RDF and Turtle, so, not sure if that qualifies as a concrete RDF syntax. As for RDF syntaxes (that came up in the past) that do not have a (W3C) specification (that can be normatively referenced), they may not qualify as a concrete RDF syntax. |
Thanks! I missed this. But we still need a summary table, with MIME types
Right, for reading. |
.. the server can't divine any concrete RDF syntax out of thin air (irrespective to host language being involved or not). There is no need to introduce dimensions whatsovever focusing on reading or writing because that's orthogonal to what a concrete RDF syntax entails. And again, in the same way we don't introduce things like whether a concrete RDF syntax is humand- and machin-readable or not, and whether actual consumption of certain concrete RDF syntaxes actually require additional processing or requiring JavaScript or so forth to be actually usable by a human. |
Shouldn't this list go in the primer, not in concepts? |
I mean this: for all formats not related to HTML, given an RDF dataset, it is clear how to serialize to that format. |
Try as I might, I cannot find a list of RDF serialization formats.
It would be good to have an official list of formats, with links to their respective specs.
I don't know whether this belongs in RDF Concepts, but is there any better place?
https://graphdb.ontotext.com/documentation/10.5/rdf-formats.html lists the formats and MIME types supported by rdf4j.
Here is a subset excluding RDF-Star formats and alternative MIME types:
A major omission is RDFa and Microdata.
