Hi Andy et al
As previously discussed I have been working on a command
line for SPARQL over HTTP that runs on Windows and as far as possible I am
trying to make the command line syntax and behaviours identical to your soh
scripts. This should hopefully be finished and released within a fortnight.
Since I don't have regular access to a Linux system to test the scripts
behaviours myself can you clarify the following for me.
Regarding the
optional file argument for protocol scripts (s-get, s-put, s-head,
s-delete):
* When used with s-get should that direct output to that
file instead of the Console
* Assume is required for s-put
* Assume it
has no meaning for s-head and s-delete
With s-put is there any way for the
user to access the special case of the POST operation whereby a Graph is
not specified and the server creates a new Graph with their POSTed triples
and returns them the new Graph URI. Or is this feature not supported by soh
and/or Fuseki yet?
Regarding the usage syntax the scripts produce,
s-query and s-update show | @file at the end of their usage. I assume this
is just to suggest that the user should pipe the output to the given
file/utility instead of it going to the Console by default?
Some of the
arguments listed are of the form --ARG=value and some are --ARG value - is
there actually intended to be any difference in the two syntaxes. For ease
of use and implementation I have assumed that any argument can be used
either way for my implementation.
Thanks,
Rob Vesse
