Loading RDF datasets into a Virtuoso Graph IRI
- Load TTL (TURTLE or N3 resource) datasets into Virtuoso Graph IRI
- Load RDF/XML datasets into Virtuoso Graph IRI
Loading RDF datasets into one or more Virtuoso Graph IRIs
Loading RDF datasets using the Conductor "Quad Store Upload" tab menu option
RDF Sink Folders (Virtuoso or ODS-Briefcase)
- Using Virtuoso RDF Sink Folder
- Using ODS RDF Sink Folder
- Using WebDAV and ODS-Briefcase Graphical Interfaces
HTTP PUT
Using this approach we can upload RDF resources into Virtuoso's WebDAV repository and then automatically upload the triples within the resource into the Virtuoso Quad store (if you so choose via Virtuoso's special RDF Sink Folder feature of WebDAV ).HTTP PUT Example 1
<rdf:RDF xmlns="http://www.example.com/jose/foaf.rdf#" xmlns:foaf="http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/" xmlns:log="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/swap/log#" xmlns:myfoaf="http://www.example.com/jose/foaf.rdf#" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"> <foaf:Person rdf:about="http://www.example.com/jose/foaf.rdf#jose"> <foaf:homepage rdf:resource="http://www.example.com/jose/"/> <foaf:knows rdf:resource="http://www.example.com/jose/foaf.rdf#juan"/> <foaf:name>Jose Jimen~ez</foaf:name> <foaf:nick>Jo</foaf:nick> <foaf:workplaceHomepage rdf:resource="http://www.corp.example.com/"/> </foaf:Person> <foaf:Person rdf:about="http://www.example.com/jose/foaf.rdf#juan"> <foaf:mbox rdf:resource="mailto:juan@mail.example.com"/> </foaf:Person> <foaf:Person rdf:about="http://www.example.com/jose/foaf.rdf#julia"> <foaf:mbox rdf:resource="mailto:julia@mail.example.com"/> </foaf:Person> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.example.com/jose/foaf.rdf#kendall"> <foaf:knows rdf:resource="http://www.example.com/jose/foaf.rdf#edd"/> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF>
File: myfoaf.rdf Destination Server: demo.openlinksw.com curl -T myfoaf.rdf http://demo.openlinksw.com/DAV/home/demo/rdf_sink/myfoaf.rdf -u demo:demo <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>201 Created</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <H1>Created</H1> Resource /DAV/home/demo/rdf_sink/ myfoaf.rdf has been created. </BODY> </HTML>
HTTP PUT Example 2
- Create a folder of type "Linked Data Import" for an ODS user with the Briefcase application
- Go to http://cname/ods, click the "Sign In" link and login as user "demo" for example;
- Click the Briefcase application from the left vertical navigation bar;
- Click "New Folder";
- In the presented form specify the folder name and type, for example:
- Go to the tab "Linked Data Import";
- Specify "Graph name", for example "urn:mydata";
- Select the "Sponger (on/off)" check-box option to enable the Virtuoso sponger for use.
- Click "Create".
- As result the new folder will be created.
- Assume the existence of a local file called "kidehen.n3" containing:
<http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com#this> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#User> . <http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com#this> <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label> "Kingsley" . <http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com#this> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#creator_of> <http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com/weblog/kidehen@openlinksw.com%27s%20BLOG%20%5B127%5D/1300> .
- Run the following command from a terminal shell, where
cname
is replaced with the actual Virtuosohost:port
to load the file to the specified location:
$ curl -T kidehen.n3 http://cname/DAV/home/demo/MyData/ -u demo:demo <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>201 Created</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <H1>Created</H1>Resource /DAV/home/demo/MyData/kidehen.n3 has been created. </BODY> </HTML>
- Go to Briefcase application and view the content of the folder "DAV/home/demo/
MyData" - As a result of the curl command to uploaded file "kidehen.n3" an additional file "urn_mydata.RDF" is available as the identifier for the Linked Data graph created in the Quad Store:
- The inserted triples can be queried from the Virtuoso SPARQL endpoint, i.e.
http://cname/sparql

HTTP POST
Virtuoso's support for HTTP content negotiation and the SPARQL Protocol enables the execution of SPARUL as part of an HTTP POST payload using Content-Type: application/sparql-query.HTTP POST Example 1
- For user demo from Conductor → System Admin → User Accounts → user demo → Edit, make sure the following properties are set:
-
User type is
SQL/ODBC and WebDAV
; -
Accounts Roles contains in "Selected" list
SPARQL_UPDATE
:
-
User type is
- From Conductor → Web Application Server → Content Management or ODS Briefcase UI create a DAV collection "xx" with the following properties:
- Execute the following command:
curl -i -d "INSERT {<http://demo.openlinksw.com/DAV/home/demo_about.rdf> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#User>}" -u "demo:demo" -H "Content-Type: application/sparql-query" http://localhost:8890/DAV/xx/yy
- The response should be:
HTTP/1.1 201 Created Server: Virtuoso/05.00.3023 (Win32) i686-generic-win-32 VDB Connection: Keep-Alive Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Date: Fri, 28 Dec 2007 12:50:12 GMT Accept-Ranges: bytes MS-Author-Via: SPARQL Content-Length: 0
- the result in the DAV/xx location will be a new WebDAV resource with name "yy" containing the inserted RDF:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:rdfs="http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#"> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://demo.openlinksw.com/DAV/home/demo_about.rdf"> <ns0pred:type xmlns:ns0pred="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" rdf:resource="http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#User"/> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF>
HTTP POST Example 2
- Create a DAV collection, for ex.
with name "test" for user for ex.
demo with password demo.
- Note: user "demo" should have from "User type": SQL/ODBC and WebDAV and should have "SPARQL_UPDATE" role set from Conductor → System Admin → User Accounts → user demo, Edit Properties.
- Execute the following command:
curl -i -d "INSERT IN GRAPH <http://mygraph.com> { <http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com#this> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#User> . <http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com#this> <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label> <Kingsley Uyi Idehen> . <http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com#this> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#creator_of> <http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com/weblog/kidehen@openlinksw.com%27s%20BLOG%20%5B127%5D/1300> } " -u "demo:demo" -H "Content-Type: application/sparql-query" http://localhost:8890/DAV/home/demo/test/myrq
- As result the response will be:

- Now let's check the inserted triples.
Go to the SPARQL endpoint, i.e.,
http://localhost:8890/sparql
and:- Enter for Default Graph URI:
http://mygraph.com
- Enter in the Query area:
SELECT * WHERE {?s ?p ?o}
- Click the button "Run Query"
- As result will be shown the inserted triples:
s p o http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com#this http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#User http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com#this http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label Kingsley http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com#this http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#creator_of http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/kidehen@openlinksw.com/weblog/kidehen@openlinksw.com%27s%20BLOG%20%5B127%5D/1300
- Enter for Default Graph URI:
Examples using LOAD feature of SPARUL
Using the file: protocol specifier
- An RDF file can be loaded from an absolute path on the file system (whose location is specified in the
DirsAllowed
param in the INI file) using thefile:///
URI scheme:
SQL> sparql load <file:///home/virtuoso/database/data/test.rdf> into <test>; Done. -- 48 msec. SQL> sparql select count(*) from <test> where {?s ?p ?o}; callret-0 INTEGER _______________________________________________________________________________ 31 1 Rows. -- 1 msec. SQL>
- An RDF file can also be uploaded directly from the Virtuoso Web Server root(~/vsp) directory using the
file:/
URI scheme:
SQL> sparql load <file:/test.rdf> into <test>; Done. -- 8 msec. SQL> sparql select count(*) from <test> where {?s ?p ?o}; callret-0 INTEGER _______________________________________________________________________________ 31 1 Rows. -- 1 msec. SQL>
Using a SPARQL query stored on DAV
- Execute from ISQL:
SPARQL INSERT IN GRAPH <http://mygraph.com> { <http://myopenlink.net/dataspace/Kingsley#this> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#User> . <http://myopenlink.net/dataspace/Kingsley#this> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#id> <Kingsley> . <http://myopenlink.net/dataspace/Caroline#this> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#User> . <http://myopenlink.net/dataspace/Caroline#this> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#id> <Caroline> . <http://myopenlink.net/dataspace/Matt#this> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#User> . <http://myopenlink.net/dataspace/Matt#this> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#id> <Matt> . <http://myopenlink.net/dataspace/demo#this> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#User> . <http://myopenlink.net/dataspace/demo#this> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#id> <demo> . };
- Create DAV collection which is visible to public, for ex: http://localhost:8890/DAV/tmp
- Upload to the DAV collection the following file for ex.
with name listall.rq and with the following content:
PREFIX rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> PREFIX sioc: <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#> SELECT ?x ?p ?o FROM <http://mygraph.com> WHERE { ?x rdf:type sioc:User . ?x ?p ?o. ?x sioc:id ?id . FILTER REGEX(str(?id), "^King") } ORDER BY ?x
- Now from ISQL execute the following command:
SPARQL LOAD bif:concat ("http://", bif:registry_get("URIQADefaultHost"), "/DAV/tmp/listall.rq") INTO GRAPH <http://myNewGraph.com>;
- As result should be shown the message:
callret-0 VARCHAR _______________________________________________________________________________ Load <http://localhost:8890/DAV/tmp/listall.rq> into graph <http://myNewGraph.com> -- done 1 Rows. -- 321 msec.
SPARQL Insert via /sparql endpoint
SPARQL INSERT operation can be sent to a web service endpoint as a single statement and executed in sequence.
Example
Using the Virtuoso ISQL tool or using the /sparql UI, for ex. at http://localhost:8890/sparql, execute the following:
- Insert into graph http://BookStore.com 3 triples:
SPARQL INSERT IN GRAPH <http://BookStore.com> { <http://www.dajobe.org/foaf.rdf#i> <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/date> <1999-04-01T00:00:00> . <http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card#i> <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/date> <1998-05-03T00:00:00> . <http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/#me> <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/date> <2001-02-08T00:00:00> };
- As result will be shown the message:
Insert into <http://BookStore.com>, 3 triples -- done
- Next we will select all triples from the graph http://BookStore.com:
SPARQL SELECT * FROM <http://BookStore.com> WHERE {?s ?p ?o};
- As result will be shown:
s p o VARCHAR VARCHAR VARCHAR _______________________________________________________________________________ http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card#i http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/date 1998-05-03T00:00:00 http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/#me http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/date 2001-02-08T00:00:00 http://www.dajobe.org/foaf.rdf#i http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/date 1999-04-01T00:00:00 3 Rows. -- 0 msec.
- Now let's insert into graph another http://NewBookStore.com graph's values:
SPARQL PREFIX dc: <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/> PREFIX xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#> INSERT INTO GRAPH <http://NewBookStore.com> { ?book ?p ?v } WHERE { GRAPH <http://BookStore.com> { ?book dc:date ?date FILTER ( xsd:dateTime(?date) < xsd:dateTime("2000-01-01T00:00:00")). ?book ?p ?v. } };
- As result will be shown:
callret-0 VARCHAR _______________________________________________________________________________ Insert into <http://NewBookStore.com>, 2 triples -- done
- Finally we will check the triples from the graph NewBookStore.com:
SQL> sparql select * from <http://NewBookStore.com> where {?s ?p ?o};
- As result will be shown:
s p o VARCHAR VARCHAR VARCHAR _______________________________________________________________________________ http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card#i http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/date 1998-05-03T00:00:00 http://www.dajobe.org/foaf.rdf#i http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/date 1999-04-01T00:00:00 2 Rows. -- 10 msec.

SPARQL Insert via HTTP Post using Content-Type: application/sparql-query and ODS wiki
- With HTTP Post and ODS wiki, you can write an RDF document and perform INSERT/UPDATE actions over it.
- You can write to a file using SIOC terms for ODS-Wiki.
- You can check with sparql the inserted / updated triples in the Quad Store.
Example
- Suppose there is ODS user test3 with ODS password 1, which has testWiki wiki instance.
- Execute the following:
curl -i -d "INSERT { <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki> <http://atomowl.org/ontologies/atomrdf#contains> <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> . <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#has_container> <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki> . <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki> <http://atomowl.org/ontologies/atomrdf#entry> <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> . <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#container_of> <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> . <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#topic> <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki> . <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> <http://atomowl.org/ontologies/atomrdf#source> <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki> . <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/types#Comment> . <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://atomowl.org/ontologies/atomrdf#Entry> . <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label> 'MyTest' . <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://atomowl.org/ontologies/atomrdf#Link> . <http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#content> <test> }" -u "test3:1" -H "Content-Type: application/sparql-query" http://localhost:8890/DAV/home/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest
- As result we should have 2 files created:

<http://localhost:8890/dataspace/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest> <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#content> <test>
i.e., the content will be "test".- You can view this file in path "DAV/home/test3/wiki/testWiki/" and its name will be "
MyTest.txt". - Using the ODS wiki UI you can:
- Go to Index link
- As result the
MyTest article will be shown in the given list. Click on its link. - As result the content of the article will be shown.
- You can view this file in path "DAV/home/test3/wiki/testWiki/" and its name will be "
- In the user DAV folder "DAV/home/test3/wiki/testWiki/" will be created a file "
- Now lets check what data was inserted in the Quad Store:
- Go to the sparql endpoint, i.e. for ex. to http://localhost:8890/sparql
- Enter for Default Graph URI:
http://localhost:8890/DAV/home/test3/wiki/testWiki/MyTest
- Enter for Query text:

Example Using WebDAV
Mount folder to DAV and dump; if this is the rdf_sink the Quad Store is updated automatically, or you can load from DAV manually to quad store.
- Using ODS Briefcase:
- Go to your ods location, for ex. http://localhost:8890/ods
- Register user, for ex. user test1
- Login if not already in ods
- Go to ODS → Briefcase
- Create new instance
- Go to the briefcase instance by clicking its name link
- Upload file in a new created folder mytest or in the rdf_sink folder with:
- checked option "RDF Store"
- set RDF Graph Name, for example,
http://localhost:8890/DAV/home/test1/<name of the current folder>/
, e.g.,http://localhost:8890/DAV/home/test1/mytest/
orhttp://localhost:8890/DAV/home/test1/rdf_sink/
- For example, upload the following file with name

Example using Virtuoso PL APIs
- In the example script we implement a basic mapper which maps a text/plain mime type to an imaginary ontology, which extends the class Document from FOAF with properties 'txt:
UniqueWords' and 'txt:Chars', where the prefix 'txt:' we specify as 'urn:txt:v0.0:'.
USE DB; CREATE PROCEDURE DB.DBA.RDF_LOAD_TXT_META ( IN graph_iri VARCHAR, IN new_origin_uri VARCHAR, IN dest VARCHAR, INOUT ret_body ANY, INOUT aq ANY, INOUT ps ANY, INOUT ser_key ANY ) { DECLARE words, chars INT; DECLARE vtb, arr, subj, ses, str ANY; DECLARE ses ANY; -- if any error we just say nothing can be done DECLARE EXIT HANDLER FOR SQLSTATE '*' { RETURN 0; }; subj := COALESCE (dest, new_origin_uri); vtb := vt_batch (); chars := LENGTH (ret_body); -- using the text index procedures we get a list of words vt_batch_feed (vtb, ret_body, 1); arr := vt_batch_strings_array (vtb); -- the list has 'word' and positions array, so we must divide by 2 words := LENGTH (arr) / 2; ses := string_output (); -- we compose a N3 literal http (sprintf ('<%s> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Document> .\n', subj), ses); http (sprintf ('<%s> <urn:txt:v0.0:UniqueWords> "%d" .\n', subj, words), ses); http (sprintf ('<%s> <urn:txt:v0.0:Chars> "%d" .\n', subj, chars), ses); str := string_output_string (ses); -- we push the N3 text into the local store DB.DBA.TTLP (str, new_origin_uri, subj); RETURN 1; } ; -- DELETE FROM DB.DBA.SYS_RDF_MAPPERS WHERE RM_HOOK = 'DB.DBA.RDF_LOAD_TXT_META'; INSERT SOFT DB.DBA.SYS_RDF_MAPPERS (RM_PATTERN, RM_TYPE, RM_HOOK, RM_KEY, RM_DESCRIPTION) VALUES ('(text/plain)', 'MIME', 'DB.DBA.RDF_LOAD_TXT_META', null, 'Text Files (demo)'); -- here we set order to some large number so don't break existing mappers UPDATE DB.DBA.SYS_RDF_MAPPERS SET RM_ID = 2000 WHERE RM_HOOK = 'DB.DBA.RDF_LOAD_TXT_META';
- To test the mapper we just use /sparql endpoint with option 'Retrieve remote RDF data for all missing source graphs' to execute:
SELECT * FROM <http://demo.openlinksw.com:8890/tutorial/hosting/ho_s_30/WebCalendar/tools/summary.txt> WHERE { ?s ?p ?o }
- Check the results here.
Important: Setting Sponger Permissions
In order to allow the Sponger to update the local RDF quad store with triples constituting the the Network Resource being fetched as structured data, the role "SPARQL_UPDATE" must be granted to the account "SPARQL". This should normally be the case. If not, you must manually grant this permission. As with most Virtuoso DBA tasks, the Conductor provides the simplest means of doing this.

Example using SIMILE RDF Bank API
Virtuoso implements the HTTP-based Semantic Bank API that enables client applications to post to its RDF Triple Store. This method offers an alternative to using Virtuoso/PL functions or WebDAV uploads as the triples-insertion mechanism.- From your machine go to Firefox → Tools →
PiggyBank → My Semantic Bank Accounts - Add in the shown form:
- For bank address: http://demo.openlinksw.com/bank
- For account id: demo
- For password: demo
- Go to demo.openlinksw.com/ods
- Log in as user demo, password: demo
- Go to the Weblog tab from the main ODS Navigation
- Click on weblog instance name, for ex. "demo's Weblog".
- When the weblog home page is loaded, click Alt + P.
- As result is shown the "My
PiggyBank" page with all the collected information presented in items. - For several of the items add Tags from the form "Tag" shown for each of them.
- As result should be shown the message "Last updated: [here goes the date value].
- You can also click "Save" and "Publish" for these items.
- Go to http://demo.openlinksw.com/sparql
- Enter for the "Default Graph URI" field: http://simile.org/piggybank/demo
- Enter for the "Query text" text-area:
PREFIX rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> PREFIX sioc: <http://rdfs.org/sioc/ns#> SELECT * FROM <http://simile.org/piggybank/demo> WHERE {?s ?p ?o}
- Click "Run Query".
- As results are shown the found results.
