NAME
    RDF::Redland::Model - Redland RDF Model Class

SYNOPSIS
      use RDF::Redland;
      my $storage=new RDF::Redland::Storage("hashes", "test", "new='yes',hash-type='memory'");
      my $model=new RDF::Redland::Model($storage, "");
      ...

      my(@sources)=$model->targets($predicate_node, $object_node);

      ...

DESCRIPTION
    Manipulate the RDF model.

CONSTRUCTORS
    new STORAGE OPTIONS_STRING
    new_with_options STORAGE OPTIONS_HASH
        Create a new RDF::Redland::Model object using RDF::Redland::Storage
        object *STORAGE* with a options. The options can be given either as
        a string in the first form as *OPTIONS_STRING*. The options take the
        form key1='value1',key2='value2'. The quotes are required. In the
        second case *OPTIONS_HASH* is a reference to a Perl hash of options.

    new_from_model MODEL
        Create a new model from an existing RDF::Redland::Model *MODEL*
        (copy constructor).

METHODS
    size
        Return the size of the model (number of statements).

    sync
        Synchronise the model to the underlying storage.

    add SUBJECT PREDICATE OBJECT
        Add a new statement to the model with *SUBJECT*, *PREDICATE* and
        *OBJECT*. These can be RDF::Redland::Node, RDF::Redland::URI or perl
        URI objects.

    add_typed_literal_statement SUBJECT PREDICATE STRING [XML_LANGUAGE
    [DATATYPE]]
        Add a new statement to the model containing a typed literal string
        object *STRING* with (optional) XML language (xml:lang attribute)
        *XML_LANGUAGE* and (optional) datatype URI *DATATYPE*.
        *XML_LANGUAGE* or *DATATYPE* can either or both be set to undef.

    add_statement STATEMENT [CONTEXT] | NODE NODE NODE [CONTEXT]
        Add RDF::Redland::Statement *STATEMENT* or the statement formed by
        *NODE NODE NODE* to the model. If the optional *CONTEXT* is given,
        associate it with that context. Any of *NODE* or *CONTEXT* can be a
        RDF::Redland::Node, RDF::Redland::URI or perl URI object.

    add_statements STREAM [CONTEXT]
        Add the statements from the RDF::Redland::Stream *STREAM* to the
        model. If the optional *CONTEXT* is given, associate it with that
        context. *CONTEXT* can be a RDF::Redland::Node, RDF::Redland::URI or
        perl URI object.

    remove_statement STATEMENT [CONTEXT] | NODE NODE NODE [CONTEXT]
        Remove RDF::Redland::Statement *STATEMENT* or the statement formed
        by *NODE NODE NODE* from the model. If the optional *CONTEXT* is
        given, remove only the statement stored with that context. Any of
        *NODE* or *CONTEXT* can be a RDF::Redland::Node, RDF::Redland::URI
        or perl URI object.

    remove_context_statements CONTEXT
        Remove all RDF::Redland::Statement *STATEMENT*s from the model with
        the given *CONTEXT* context. *CONTEXT* can be a RDF::Redland::Node,
        RDF::Redland::URI or perl URI object.

    contains_statement STATEMENT
        Return non 0 if the model contains RDF::Redland::Statement
        *STATEMENT*.

    as_stream [CONTEXT]
        Return a new RDF::Redland::Stream object seralising the entire
        model, or just those statements with *CONTEXT*, as
        RDF::Redland::Statement objects. If given, *CONTEXT* can be a
        RDF::Redland::Node, RDF::Redland::URI or perl URI object.

    find_statements STATEMENT [CONTEXT]
        Find all matching statements in the model matching partial
        RDF::Redland::Statement *STATEMENT* (any of the subject, predicate,
        object RDF::Redland::Node can be undef). If *CONTEXT* is given,
        finds statements only in that context.

        In an array context, returns an array of the matching
        RDF::Redland::Statement objects. In a scalar context, returns the
        RDF::Redland::Stream object representing the results.

    sources ARC TARGET
        Get all source RDF::Redland::Node objects for a given arc *ARC*,
        target *TARGET*> RDF::Redland::Node objects as a list of
        RDF::Redland::Node objects.

    arcs SOURCE TARGET
        Get all arc RDF::Redland::Node objects for a given source *SOURCE*,
        target *TARGET* RDF::Redland::Node objects as a list of
        RDF::Redland::Node objects.

    targets SOURCE ARC
        Get all target RDF::Redland::Node objects for a given source
        *SOURCE*, arc *ARC* RDF::Redland::Node objects as a list of
        RDF::Redland::Node objects.

    sources_iterator ARC TARGET
        Get all source RDF::Redland::Node objects for a given arc *ARC*,
        target *TARGET* RDF::Redland::Node objects as an
        RDF::Redland::Iterator or undef on failure.

    arcs_iterator SOURCE TARGET
        Get all arc RDF::Redland::Node objects for a given source *SOURCE*,
        target *TARGET* RDF::Redland::Node objects as an
        RDF::Redland::Iterator or undef on failure.

    targets_iterator SOURCE ARC
        Get all target RDF::Redland::Node objects for a given source
        *SOURCE*, arc *ARC* RDF::Redland::Node objects as an
        RDF::Redland::Iterator or undef on failure.

    source ARC TARGET
        Get one source RDF::Redland::Node object that matches a given arc
        *ARC*, target *TARGET* RDF::Redland::Node objects or undef if there
        is no match.

    arc SOURCE TARGET
        Get one arc RDF::Redland::Node object that matches a given source
        *SOURCE*, target *TARGET* RDF::Redland::Node objects or undef if
        there is no match.

    target SOURCE ARC
        Get one target RDF::Redland::Node object that matches a given source
        *SOURCE*, arc *ARC* RDF::Redland::Node objects or undef if there is
        no match.

    contexts
        Get all context RDF::Redland::Node objects in the model

    feature URI [VALUE]
        Get/set a model feature. The feature is named via RDF::Redland::URI
        *URI* and the value is a RDF::Redland::Node. If *VALUE* is given,
        the feature is set to that value, otherwise the current value is
        returned.

    query_execute QUERY
        Execute the *QUERY* RDF::Redland::Query against the model returning
        a result set RDF::Redland::QueryResults or undef on failure.

    load URI [SYNTAX-NAME [ MIME-TYPE [SYNTAX-URI [HANDLER ]]]
        Load content from *URI* into the model, guessing the parser.

    to_string [BASE-URI [SYNTAX-NAME [ MIME-TYPE [SYNTAX-URI]]]
        Serialize the model to a syntax. If no serializer name is given, the
        default serializer RDF/XML is used.

OLDER METHODS
    serialise
    serialize
        Return a new RDF::Redland::Stream object seralising the model as
        RDF::Redland::Statement objects. Replaced by as_stream to reduce
        confusion with the RDF::Redland::Serializer class.
