   in as Item,
   [options as String[]]
) as Sequence

Summary

This function returns parsed sem:triple objects from a text format or XML.

Parameters

in The source to parse. This must either be a string or a node.

Parameters
in	The source to parse. This must either be a string or a node.
options	Parsing options. Only one each of the base, graph, override-graph, and format (ntriple, nquad, turtle, rdfxml, rdfjson, triplexml) options is allowed. Valid options include: base=URI A base URI to use during parsing. graph=URI The graph/context value to give to quads with no explicit graph specified in the data. Cannot be used with override-graph=URI (or an exception is thrown). override-graph=URI The graph/context value to give to every quad, whether specified in the data or not. Cannot be used with graph=URI (or an exception is thrown). ntriple Specify N-Triples format for input. nquad Specify N-Quads format for input (default if the $in paramater is a string). turtle Specify Turtle format for input. rdfxml Specify RDF/XML format for input (default if the $in parameter is an element). n3 Specify N3 format for input. trig Specify TriG format for input. rdfjson Specify RDF/JSON format for input. triplexml Specify `sem:triple` XML format for input, either a single `sem:triple` element or multiple elements under a root element. If you use the `triplexml` option, you cannot specify a graph. repair Specify to repair if possible, or discard individual triples that do not parse correctly. Otherwise any malformed input results in an exception.

override-graph=URI
The graph/context value to give to every quad, whether specified in the data or not. Cannot be used with graph=URI (or an exception is thrown).
ntriple
Specify N-Triples format for input.
nquad
Specify N-Quads format for input (default if the $in paramater is a string).
turtle
Specify Turtle format for input.
rdfxml
Specify RDF/XML format for input (default if the $in parameter is an element).
n3
Specify N3 format for input.
trig
Specify TriG format for input.
rdfjson
Specify RDF/JSON format for input.
triplexml
