RDF::Q...::Blank(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

Okay bestie, so this is RDF::Query::Node::Blank — it's the RDF Node class for blank nodes ✨ (yes, from that RDF::Query::Node::Blank(3pm) page, filed under User Contributed Perl Documentation, iykyk).

💖 VERSION 💖

This doc describes RDF::Query::Node::Blank version 2.919. Locked in. No cap. 🫶

🎀 METHODS 🎀

So beyond the methods documented right here below, this class also inherits methods from the RDF::Query::Node class and from the RDF::Trine::Node::Blank class. Family reunion vibes 🧚 — you get all of that too.

• new ( [ $name ] ) — Returns a brand new Blank node object, periodt. If you pass in $name, that's what gets used as the blank node identifier (main character gets to pick their own name 💅). If you don't pass one? A time-based identifier gets generated and used instead. So either way you're walking out of here with an identifier, slay.
• as_sparql — Returns the SPARQL string for this node. Just hands you the SPARQL, that's literally it 🤝
• as_hash — Returns the query as a nested set of plain data structures — and like, no objects. Just raw data structures, nested and cozy 🍓
• make_distinguished_variable — Returns a new variable based on this blank node. Blank node → variable, glow-up edition 👑
