o Scripts to Dump and Reload RDF Graphs Every DBMS needs to offer a mechanism for bulk export and import of data. Virtuoso supports dumping and reloading graph model data (e.g., RDF), as well as relational data (e.g., SQL) (discussed elsewhere). %TOC% ---++ How is it done? We have created stored procedures for the task. The dump procedures leverage SPARQL to facilitate selective data dump(s) from one or more Named Graphs, each denoted by an IRI. ---+++ dump_one_graph ---++++ Parameters * IN srcgraph VARCHAR -- * IN out_file VARCHAR -- * IN file_length_limit INTEGER -- maximum length of dump files ---++++ Procedure source CREATE PROCEDURE dump_one_graph ( IN srcgraph VARCHAR , IN out_file VARCHAR , IN file_length_limit INTEGER := 1000000000 ) { DECLARE file_name varchar; DECLARE env, ses any; DECLARE ses_len, max_ses_len, file_len, file_idx integer; SET ISOLATION = 'uncommitted'; max_ses_len := 10000000; file_len := 0; file_idx := 1; file_name := sprintf ('%s%06d.ttl', out_file, file_idx); string_to_file ( file_name || '.graph', srcgraph, -2 ); string_to_file ( file_name, sprintf ( '# Dump of graph <%s>, as of %s\n', srcgraph, CAST (NOW() AS VARCHAR) ), -2 ); env := vector (dict_new (16000), 0, '', '', '', 0, 0, 0, 0); ses := string_output (); FOR (SELECT * FROM ( SPARQL DEFINE input:storage "" SELECT ?s ?p ?o { GRAPH `iri(?:srcgraph)` { ?s ?p ?o } } ) AS sub OPTION (LOOP)) DO { http_ttl_triple (env, "s", "p", "o", ses); ses_len := length (ses); IF (ses_len > max_ses_len) { file_len := file_len + ses_len; IF (file_len > file_length_limit) { http (' .\n', ses); string_to_file (file_name, ses, -1); file_len := 0; file_idx := file_idx + 1; file_name := sprintf ('%s%06d.ttl', out_file, file_idx); string_to_file ( file_name, sprintf ( '# Dump of graph <%s>, as of %s (part %d)\n', srcgraph, CAST (NOW() AS VARCHAR), file_idx), -2 ); env := vector (dict_new (16000), 0, '', '', '', 0, 0, 0, 0); } ELSE string_to_file (file_name, ses, -1); ses := string_output (); } } IF (LENGTH (ses)) { http (' .\n', ses); string_to_file (file_name, ses, -1); } } ; ---+++ dump_graphs The dump_graphs procedure can be used to dump all the graphs in a Virtuoso server to a set of turtle (.ttl) data files in the specified dump directory. ---++++ Parameters * IN dir VARCHAR -- dump directory * IN file_length_limit INTEGER -- maximum length of dump files Note: The dump directory must be included in the DirsAllowed parameter of the Virtuoso configuration file (virtuoso.ini), or the Virtuoso server will not be able to create or access the data files. ---++++ Procedure source CREATE PROCEDURE dump_graphs ( IN dir VARCHAR := 'dumps' , IN file_length_limit INTEGER := 1000000000 ) { DECLARE inx INT; inx := 1; SET ISOLATION = 'uncommitted'; FOR ( SELECT * FROM ( SPARQL DEFINE input:storage "" SELECT DISTINCT ?g { GRAPH ?g { ?s ?p ?o } . FILTER ( ?g != virtrdf: ) } ) AS sub OPTION ( LOOP )) DO { dump_one_graph ( "g", sprintf ('%s/graph%06d_', dir, inx), file_length_limit ); inx := inx + 1; } } ; ---+++ load_graphs The load_graphs procedure can then be used to load a dumped dataset's ttl files into a Virtuoso Server instance. ---++++ Parameters * IN dir VARCHAR - dump directory Note: The dump directory must be included in the DirsAllowed parameter of the Virtuoso configuration file (virtuoso.ini), or the Virtuoso server will not be able to access the data file(s). ---++++ Procedure source CREATE PROCEDURE load_graphs ( IN dir VARCHAR := 'dumps/' ) { DECLARE arr ANY; DECLARE g VARCHAR; arr := sys_dirlist (dir, 1); log_enable (2, 1); FOREACH (VARCHAR f IN arr) DO { IF (f LIKE '*.ttl') { DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR SQLSTATE '*' { log_message (sprintf ('Error in %s', f)); }; g := file_to_string (dir || '/' || f || '.graph'); DB.DBA.TTLP_MT (file_open (dir || '/' || f), g, g, 255); } } EXEC ('CHECKPOINT'); } ; ---++ Examples ---+++ Dump One Graph 1.
