L-space
Unlimited Linked (Open) Data, traversing and reading the data multiverse: "Scientia potentia est"
L-space, a graph computing framework for Scala.
L-space is a graph computing framework WIP with a heavy focus towards Linked (Open) Data. The name is inspired by the L-space concept portrayed by Terry Pratchett's Discworld: "Because L-space links every library, it is possible to reach any one of these throughout space, time and the multiverse (Linked Data?)." Travelling through L-space requires knowledge and ability. Hence, steps are defined to instruct the Librarian how to travel.
Getting started
L-space is available for Scala 2.11.x and 2.12.x.
To include lspace-core (all core structures and basic implementations (in-memory) of the graph,
data-models and traversal-engines) add the following to your build.sbt:
libraryDependencies += "eu.l-space" %% "lspace-core" % "{version}"
Basic minimal import:
import lspace._
import lspace.Implicits.StandardGuide.guide
Modules
L-space provides additional modules for remote traversals, parsing io, rest-api templates and tinkerpop-adapters.
lspace-parse: parsers for linked datalspace-client: clients to communicatie with other graph(-services)lspace-graph: implementation for persistence and indexing remote (e.g. Cassandra, Elasticsearch, HDFS, ...)lspace-services: basic implementation for a rest service which accepts Librarian queries in Json-LD and returns results in Json-LD
libraryDependencies += "eu.l-space" %% "{lspace-xxx}" % "{version}"
