liblod

A client for Linked Open Data

liblod is a client library for consuming Linked Open Data published on web servers. It's a thin wrapper around librdf, libcurl, and libxml2.

Building liblod from Git

Twine uses autoconf, libtool and automake to build.

Once the dependencies are in place, you can check out and built Twine with:

$ git clone git://github.com/bbcarchdev/liblod.git
$ cd liblod
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
$ autoreconf -i
$ ./configure [--prefix=/optional/installation/prefix]
$ make
$ sudo make install

liblod includes a small command-line utility for interactively consuming Linked Open Data, lod-util. When you run lod-util, either type a URI to resolve it and print the discovered data, or type .help for a list of available commands.
