Methods

static method delete (line 146)

Delete an existing namespace.

access: public

static void delete (string $prefix)

string $prefix: The namespace prefix (eg 'foaf')

static method expand (line 260)

Expand a shortened URI (qname) back into a full URI.

If it isn't possible to expand the qname, for example if the namespace isn't registered, then the original string will be returned.

return: The full URI (eg 'http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name')
access: public

static string expand (string $shortUri)

string $shortUri: The short URI (eg 'foaf:name')

static method get (line 89)

Return a namespace given its prefix.

return: The namespace URI (eg 'http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/')
access: public

static string get (string $prefix)

string $prefix: The namespace prefix (eg 'foaf')

static method namespaces (line 78)

Return all the namespaces registered

return: Associative array of all the namespaces.
access: public

static array namespaces ()

static method prefixOfUri (line 177)

Return the prefix namespace that a URI belongs to.

return: The prefix namespace that it is a part of(eg 'foaf')
access: public

static string prefixOfUri (string $uri)

string $uri: A full URI (eg 'http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name')

static method reset (line 163)

Delete the anonymous namespaces and reset the counter to 0

access: public

static void reset ()

static method set (line 117)

Register a new namespace.

access: public

static void set (string $prefix, string $long)

string $prefix: The namespace prefix (eg 'foaf')
string $long: The namespace URI (eg 'http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/')

static method shorten (line 216)

Shorten a URI by substituting in the namespace prefix.

If $createNamespace is true, and the URI isn't part of an existing namespace, then EasyRdf will attempt to create a new namespace and use that namespace to shorten the URI (for example ns0:term).

If it isn't possible to shorten the URI, then null will be returned.

return: The shortened URI (eg 'foaf:name') or null
access: public

static string shorten (string $uri, [bool $createNamespace = false])

string $uri: The full URI (eg 'http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name')
bool $createNamespace: If true, a new namespace will be created
