Sparesults

Sparesults is a set of parsers and serializers for SPARQL query results formats.

It supports SPARQL Query Results XML Format (Second Edition), SPARQL 1.1 Query Results JSON Format and SPARQL 1.1 Query Results CSV and TSV Formats.

Support for SPARQL-star is also available behind the rdf-star feature.

This crate is intended to be a building piece for SPARQL client and server implementations in Rust like Oxigraph.

The entry points of this library are the two QueryResultsParser and QueryResultsSerializer structs.

Usage example converting a JSON result file into a TSV result file:

use sparesults::{QueryResultsFormat, QueryResultsParser, FromReadQueryResultsReader, QueryResultsSerializer};
use std::io::Result;

fn convert_json_to_tsv(json_file: &[u8]) -> Result<Vec<u8>> {
    let json_parser = QueryResultsParser::from_format(QueryResultsFormat::Json);
    let tsv_serializer = QueryResultsSerializer::from_format(QueryResultsFormat::Tsv);
    // We start to read the JSON file and see which kind of results it is
    match json_parser.parse_read(json_file)? {
        FromReadQueryResultsReader::Boolean(value) => {
            // it's a boolean result, we copy it in TSV to the output buffer
            tsv_serializer.serialize_boolean_to_write(Vec::new(), value)
        },
        FromReadQueryResultsReader::Solutions(solutions_reader) => {
            // it's a set of solutions, we create a writer and we write to it while reading in streaming from the JSON file
            let mut serialize_solutions_to_write = tsv_serializer.serialize_solutions_to_write(Vec::new(), solutions_reader.variables().to_vec())?;
            for solution in solutions_reader {
                serialize_solutions_to_write.write(&solution?)?;
            }
            serialize_solutions_to_write.finish()
        }
    }
}

// Let's test with a boolean
assert_eq!(
    convert_json_to_tsv(b"{\"boolean\":true}".as_slice()).unwrap(),
    b"true"
);

// And with a set of solutions
assert_eq!(
    convert_json_to_tsv(b"{\"head\":{\"vars\":[\"foo\",\"bar\"]},\"results\":{\"bindings\":[{\"foo\":{\"type\":\"literal\",\"value\":\"test\"}}]}}".as_slice()).unwrap(),
    b"?foo\t?bar\n\"test\"\t\n"
);
