💖 RUDOF(1) — the rudof data glow-up 💖

okay bestie, grab your iced coffee because we're getting into the rudof data subcommand from the rudof manual, section 1 (User Commands). it's giving "tell me everything about my RDF data" and honestly? obsessed. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

rudof data — spill the tea about your RDF data 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

rudof data [OPTIONS] [DATA]...

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Show information about RDF data. that's it, that's the vibe. you hand it some RDF, it tells you what's up. no cap. 💖

🧚 Arguments:

  • [DATA]... — literally the data. zero or more of them. the whole point. 🌈

✨ OPTIONS ✨

okay this is the part where we go one by one, and i'm not skipping a single one, periodt. 🔥

  • -p, --prefix <PREFIX-SOURCE> — the prefix source. can be a string, a path, or a URL. all three are valid, she's flexible like that. 💜
  • -t, --data-format <FORMAT> — the RDF data format. defaults to turtle, and the possible values are: turtle, ntriples, rdfxml, trig, n3, nquads, jsonld, pg. pick your fighter. ⭐
  • -b, --base <IRI> — base IRI. the anchor, the home base, the main character's origin story. 👑
  • --reader-mode <MODE> — RDF reader mode. defaults to strict, and possible values are lax and strict. strict is the responsible bestie, lax is the one who says "close enough." 😭
  • -r, --result-format <FORMAT> — the output result format (yes the manpage spells it "Ouput", we're keeping the lore). defaults to turtle, possible values: turtle, ntriples, jsonld, rdfxml, trig, n3, nquads, compact, json, plantuml, svg, png. yes you can get a whole picture out of this. iconic. 🎀
  • -c, --config-file <FILE> — config file name. your settings, your rules. 💅
  • -o, --output-file <FILE> — output file name. default = terminal (so if you don't say anything, she's just gonna talk to your screen like a normal person). 🫶
  • --force-overwrite — force overwrite to the output file if it already exists. yeah she'll clobber it, so be sure you mean it. 💀
  • --backend <BACKEND> — choose which RDF data backend to load the input into. options are:
    • memory (default): parse into an in-process oxrdf::Graph.
    • qlever: launch a local QLever Docker container and index the input on disk. requires the binary to be built with the qlever feature.
    • endpoint=<URL_OR_NAME>: query an external SPARQL endpoint by URL, or by the name of an endpoint registered in the TOML config. see also the --endpoint / -e shortcut.
  • -e, --endpoint <URL_OR_NAME> — shortcut for --backend endpoint=<URL_OR_NAME>. accepts either a full SPARQL endpoint URL or the name of an endpoint registered in the TOML config. mutually exclusive with --backend — so pick one, bestie, they are not sharing the aux cord. 😤
  • -h, --help — print help. note: it says "see a summary with -h" — so -h gives you the lil summary version, iykyk. 🌟
⚠️ real talk: --backend and --endpoint / -e are mutually exclusive. you literally cannot do both, so don't try it. 🙈

and that's the whole page, bestie. this was rudof data 0.3.8+ds, dated August 2026 — like a lil time capsule. slay, stay hydrated, and go inspect some triples. 💖✨🦋🎀
