Overview

A SPARQL substr operator.

[123] SubstringExpression ::= ‘SUBSTR’ ‘(’ Expression ‘,’ Expression ( ‘,’ Expression )? ‘)’

Examples:

SPARQL Grammar

PREFIX : <http://example.org/>
SELECT ?s ?str (SUBSTR(?str,1,1) AS ?substr)
WHERE {
  ?s :str ?str
}

SSE

(prefix ((: <http://example.org/>))
 (project (?s ?str ?substr)
  (extend ((?substr (substr ?str 1 1)))
   (bgp (triple ?s :str ?str)))))

Constructor Details

#initialize(source, startingLoc, length = RDF::Literal(""), **options) ⇒ SubStr

Initializes a new operator instance.

Parameters:

  • source (RDF::Literal)
  • startingLoc (RDF::Litereal::Integer)
  • length (RDF::Litereal::Integer) (defaults to: RDF::Literal(""))

    (-1)

  • options (Hash{Symbol => Object})

    any additional options (see SPARQL::Algebra::Operator#initialize)

Raises:

  • (TypeError)

    if any operand is invalid

Instance Method Details

#apply(source, startingLoc, length, **options) ⇒ RDF::Literal

The substr function corresponds to the XPath fn:substring function and returns a literal of the same kind (simple literal, literal with language tag, xsd:string typed literal) as the source input parameter but with a lexical form formed from the substring of the lexcial form of the source.

The arguments startingLoc and length may be derived types of xsd:integer.

The index of the first character in a strings is 1.

Examples:

substr("foobar", 4) #=> "bar"
substr("foobar"@en, 4) #=> "bar"@en
substr("foobar"^^xsd:string, 4) #=> "bar"^^xsd:string
substr("foobar", 4, 1) #=> "b"
substr("foobar"@en, 4, 1) #=> "b"@en
substr("foobar"^^xsd:string, 4, 1) #=> "b"^^xsd:string

Parameters:

  • source (RDF::Literal)

    a literal

  • startingLoc (RDF::Literal)

    an 1-based integer offset into source

  • length (RDF::Literal::Integer)

    (-1) an optional length of the substring.

Returns:

  • (RDF::Literal)

Raises:

  • (TypeError)

    if operands are not compatible
