ckanext-jena 0.0.1

An extension for storing file with Apache Jena

ckanext-jena - Semantic data management extension

ckanext-jena is an extension for enabling the semantic aspect of CKAN with Apache Jena.

This extension provides an ability to let users store a certain semantic resource (e.g. rdf, ttl, owl) in Apache Jena and perform SPARQL semantic queries.

Notes:

• Apache Jena and Fuseki server need to be running.

• jena_search_sparql api can be called with resource_id and q parameters for semantic queries.

Requirements

This extension was developed and tested under CKAN-2.7.3 and Apache Jena-3.9.0
