Instance Method Details

#apply(left, right, **options) ⇒ RDF::Literal

The STRBEFORE function corresponds to the XPath fn:substring-before function. The arguments must be argument compatible otherwise an error is raised.

For compatible arguments, if the lexical part of the second argument occurs as a substring of the lexical part of the first argument, the function returns a literal of the same kind as the first argument arg1 (simple literal, plain literal same language tag, xsd:string). The lexical form of the result is the substring of the lexical form of arg1 that precedes the first occurrence of the lexical form of arg2. If the lexical form of arg2 is the empty string, this is considered to be a match and the lexical form of the result is the empty string.

If there is no such occurrence, an empty simple literal is returned.

Examples:

strbefore("abc","b") #=> "a"
strbefore("abc"@en,"bc") #=> "a"@en
strbefore("abc"@en,"b"@cy) #=> error
strbefore("abc"^^xsd:string,"") #=> ""^^xsd:string
strbefore("abc","xyz") #=> ""
strbefore("abc"@en, "z"@en) #=> ""
strbefore("abc"@en, "z") #=> ""
strbefore("abc"@en, ""@en) #=> ""@en
strbefore("abc"@en, "") #=> ""@en

Parameters:

  • left (RDF::Literal) —

    a literal

  • right (RDF::Literal) —

    a literal

Returns:

  • (RDF::Literal)

Raises:

  • (TypeError) —

    if operands are not compatible
