Method Detail

load

public static <E,V extends View<E>> V load(URI uri)

Load a Dataset or View for the given URI.

If the URI is a dataset URI, the unfiltered Dataset will be returned.

URI formats are defined by Dataset implementations, but must begin with "dataset:" or "view:".

Type Parameters:

E - The type of entities stored in the Dataset.

V - The type of View expected.

Parameters:

uri - a Dataset or View URI.

Returns:

a View for the given URI.

load

public static <E,V extends View<E>> V load(String uriString)

Load a Dataset or View for the given URI string.

If the URI is a dataset URI, the unfiltered Dataset will be returned.

URI formats are defined by Dataset implementations, but must begin with "dataset:" or "view:".

Type Parameters:

E - The type of entities stored in the Dataset.

V - The type of View expected.

Parameters:

uriString - a Dataset or View URI.

Returns:

a View for the given URI.

repositoryFor

public static <R extends DatasetRepository> R repositoryFor(URI uri)

Load a DatasetRepository for the given dataset or view URI.

URI formats are defined by Dataset implementations, but must begin with "dataset:" or "view:".

Type Parameters:

R - The type of DatasetRepository expected.

Parameters:

uri - a Dataset or View URI.

Returns:

a DatasetRepository responsible for the given URI.

repositoryFor

public static <R extends DatasetRepository> R repositoryFor(String uriString)

Load a DatasetRepository for the given dataset or view URI string.

URI formats are defined by Dataset implementations, but must begin with "dataset:" or "view:".

Type Parameters:

R - The type of DatasetRepository expected.

Parameters:

uriString - a Dataset or View URI.

Returns:

a DatasetRepository responsible for the given URI.

create

public static <E,V extends View<E>> V create(URI uri,
                                             DatasetDescriptor descriptor)

Create a Dataset for the given dataset or view URI.

URI formats are defined by Dataset implementations, but must begin with "dataset:" or "view:".

Type Parameters:
