TriGCodec class final

RDF Codec implementation for the TriG serialization format.

TriG is an extension of Turtle that adds support for named graphs, allowing multiple RDF graphs to be represented in a single document. It is both readable by humans and parsable by machines.

TriG Syntax Overview

TriG supports all Turtle features plus named graphs:

• All Turtle features: Prefixed names, lists, predicate lists, object lists, blank nodes

• Named graphs with GRAPH keyword:

  @prefix ex: <http://example.org/> .
  GRAPH ex:graph1 {
    ex:subject ex:predicate "object" .
  }
  

• Named graph shorthand:

  ex:graph1 {
    ex:subject ex:predicate "object" .
  }
  

• Default graph: Triples outside graph blocks

  ex:subject ex:predicate "object" .
  

• Blank node graph names:

  _:graph1 {
    ex:subject ex:predicate "object" .
  }
  

File Extension and MIME Types

TriG files typically use the .trig file extension. The primary MIME type is application/trig.
