Clownface is a graph traversal library inspired by Gremlin which allows to query any RDF dataset in a concise and readable way.
Clownface greatly simplifies interacting with RDF data in JavaScript.
The recommended way is to use clownface with and RDF/JS environment.
It also requires DataFactory and DatasetFactory, for example those provided by @rdfjs/data-model and @rdfjs/dataset packages respectively, as well as @rdfjs/namespace.
npm install clownface @rdfjs/environment @rdfjs/data-model @rdfjs/dataset @rdfjs/namespace
import Environment from '@rdfjs/environment/Environment.js'
import NamespaceFactory from '@rdfjs/namespace/Factory.js'
import DatasetFactory from '@rdfjs/dataset/Factory.js'
import DataFactory from '@rdfjs/data-model/Factory.js'
import ClownfaceFactory from 'clownface/Factory.js'
const $rdf = new Environment([
NamespaceFactory,
DatasetFactory,
DataFactory,
ClownfaceFactory
])
const graph = $rdf.clownface()
Alternatively, if you already use @zazuko/env, it comes bundled with clownface and its dependencies.
import $rdf from '@zazuko/env'
const graph = $rdf.clownface()
If you are new to RDF and JavaScript, consider our Getting Started guide that also covers Clownface basics.
