JSON-LD implementations

[johnataylor]

I noticed you have a new JSON-LD processor published on NuGet. On the NuGet team, we like JSON-LD and we're making quite a lot of use of it in our new development this year. I just wondered if you had taken a look at our implementation?

The JSON-LD processor is https://github.com/NuGet/json-ld.net we've also integrate JSON-LD with the the DotNetRdf library, you can find that here https://github.com/NuGet/NuGet.Services.Metadata/tree/master/src/Catalog/JsonLdIntegration

The JSON-LD Processor (without the DotNetRdf integration) is available as a NuGet package: http://www.nuget.org/packages/json-ld.net/

We could do the same for the DotNetRdf integration pieces if that was interesting? You can leave any comments you have on either of these github repos.

Thanks

I believe you had RomanticWeb on your mind by stating that you could do the same integration pieces. If that so, I believe it wouldn't do any harm to have other components extending that very one we're referencing to. Current JSON-LD implementation we're using is far from perfection (or I'd say completion), as it supports only JSON-LD expansion. Unfortunately framing, compacting and flattening will have to wait a bit longer as we're stuck on other bigger project (during which RomanticWeb web was created).

Bare in mind that while current implementations of RomanticWeb and physical triple stores connectivity are using dotNetRDF and it's great support for leading solutions, it is not coupled to any specific implementation, thus any other extensions should follow that path.

Hi Karol,

What I wanted to say was that we have implemented a JSON-LD processor that does the various framing, compacting and flattening behaviors defined by the spec. And we have additional, and separate, pieces that integrate the JSON-LD graph with DotNetRdf. I thought you might find these interesting and useful. The core compacting/flattening/framing logic is in the NuGet Package.

Thanks
