Substring Bucketizer


The purpose of the substring bucketizer is to apply a substring fragmentation to TREE members based on a text property path.

> An LDES bucketizer adds triples with the ldes bucket predicate (https://w3id.org/ldes#bucket) to the array of quads representating an LDES member, indicating the bucket in which the member belongs.

The fragmentation strategy is based on previous work and the following method is applied:
!Fragmentation Strategy

Example

We assume the following LDES member on which a substring fragmentation with the property path set to () will be applied.

``ttl
dct:created "2002-08-13T16:33:18+02:00"^^xsd:dateTime ;
dct:isVersionOf ;
prov:generatedAtTime "2021-09-07T15:44:05.975Z"^^xsd:dateTime ;
rdfs:label "John Doe" .
`

After passing through the bucketizer, the LDES member will have one or more extra triples
`ttl
dct:created "2002-08-13T16:33:18+02:00"^^xsd:dateTime ;
dct:isVersionOf ;
prov:generatedAtTime "2021-09-07T15:44:05.975Z"^^xsd:dateTime ;
rdfs:label "John Doe" ;
ldes:bucket "j"
`

Depending on when this LDES member is processed, it is possible for it to have a different bucket




Install

`bash
> npm i @treecg/ldes-substring-bucketizer
`

Usage

A bucketizer should always be used in combination with the LDES client. More information on how to setup an LDES client can be found here. It is important to set the option in the LDES client to receive the LDES member as an array of quads: representation: 'quads'.

The bucketizer expects a property path as input and should have the following structure ( ...)

`
import { SubstringBucketzer } from '@treecg/substring-bucketizer'

const run = async (): Promise => {
const options = {...};
const url = ...;
const pageSize: ...;

const bucketizer = await SubstringBucketizer.build({ propertyPath: '', pageSize: pageSize });

const ldes = LDESClient.createReadStream(url, options);
ldes.on('data', (member) => {
bucketizer.bucketize(member.quads, member.id)

// Continue processing the member, but now the array of quads will have extra triples, the bucket triples
});
}

run().catch(error => console.error(error.stack));
