SPARQL Anything

SPARQL Anything is a system for Semantic Web re-engineering that allows users to … query anything with SPARQL.

Main features:

Query files in plain SPARQL 1.1, via the SERVICE <x-sparql-anything:> (see configuration) and build knowledge graphs with CONSTRUCT queries
Supported formats: XML, JSON, CSV, HTML, Excel, Text, Binary, EXIF, File System, Zip/Tar, Markdown, YAML, Bibtex, DOCx (see configuration)
Transforms files, inline content, or the output of an external command
Full fledged HTTP client to query Web APIs (headers, authentication, all methods supported)
Functions library for RDF sequences, strings, hashes, easy entity building, …
Combine multiple SERVICE clauses into complex data integration queries (thanks to SPARQL)
Query templates (using BASIL variables)
Save and reuse SPARQL Results Sets as input for parametric queries
Slice large CSV files with an iterator-like execution style (soon JSON and XML)
Supports an on-disk option (with Apache Jena TDB2)

SPARQL Anything is developed in collaboration with the EU-funded project SPICE.
