The W3C Linked Data Platform (LDP) Vocabulary
W3C Linked Data Platform (LDP)
This ontology provides an informal representation of the concepts and terms as defined in the LDP specification. Consult the LDP specification for normative reference.
A HTTP-addressable resource whose lifecycle is managed by a LDP server.
stable
Resource
A Linked Data Platform Resource (LDPR) whose state is represented as RDF.
stable
RDFSource
A Linked Data Platform Resource (LDPR) whose state is NOT represented as RDF.
stable
NonRDFSource
A Linked Data Platform RDF Source (LDP-RS) that also conforms to additional patterns and conventions for managing membership. Readers should refer to the specification defining this ontology for the list of behaviors associated with it.
stable
Container
An LDPC that uses a predefined predicate to simply link to its contained resources.
stable
BasicContainer
An LDPC that is similar to a LDP-DC but it allows an indirection with the ability to list as member a resource, such as a URI representing a real-world object, that is different from the resource that is created.
stable
DirectContainer
An LDPC that has the flexibility of choosing what form the membership triples take.
stable
IndirectContainer
Indicates which predicate is used in membership triples, and that the membership triple pattern is < membership-constant-URI , object-of-hasMemberRelation, member-URI >.
stable
hasMemberRelation
Indicates which predicate is used in membership triples, and that the membership triple pattern is < member-URI , object-of-isMemberOfRelation, membership-constant-URI >.
stable
isMemmberOfRelation
Indicates the membership-constant-URI in a membership triple. Depending upon the membership triple pattern a container uses, as indicated by the presence of ldp:hasMemberRelation or ldp:isMemberOfRelation, the membership-constant-URI might occupy either the subject or object position in membership triples.
stable
membershipResource
Indicates which triple in a creation request should be used as the member-URI value in the membership triple added when the creation request is successful.
stable
insertedContentRelation
LDP servers should use this predicate as the membership predicate if there is no obvious predicate from an application vocabulary to use.
stable
member
Links a container with resources created through the container.
stable
contains
Used to indicate default and typical behavior for ldp:insertedContentRelation, where the member-URI value in the membership triple added when a creation request is successful is the URI assigned to the newly created resource.
stable
MemberSubject
URI identifying a LDPC's containment triples, for example to allow clients to express interest in receiving them.
stable
PreferContainment
URI identifying a LDPC's membership triples, for example to allow clients to express interest in receiving them.
stable
PreferMembership
Archaic alias for ldp:PreferMinimalContainer
archaic
PreferEmptyContainer
URI identifying the subset of a LDPC's triples present in an empty LDPC, for example to allow clients to express interest in receiving them. Currently this excludes containment and membership triples, but in the future other exclusions might be added. This definition is written to automatically exclude those new classes of triples.
stable
PreferMinimalContainer
Links a resource with constraints that the server requires requests like creation and update to conform to.
stable
constrainedBy
Link to the list of sorting criteria used by the server in a representation. Typically used on Link response headers as an extension link relation URI in the rel= parameter.
testing
pageSortCriteria
Element in the list of sorting criteria used by the server to assign container members to pages.
testing
PageSortCriterion
Predicate used to specify the order of the members across a page sequence's in-sequence page resources; it asserts nothing about the order of members in the representation of a single page.
testing
pageSortPredicate
The ascending/descending/etc order used to order the members across pages in a page sequence.
testing
pageSortOrder
The collation used to order the members across pages in a page sequence when comparing strings.
testing
pageSortCollation
Ascending order.
testing
Ascending
Descending order.
testing
Descending
URI signifying that the resource is an in-sequence page resource, as defined by LDP Paging. Typically used on Link rel='type' response headers.
testing
Page
Link to a page sequence resource, as defined by LDP Paging. Typically used to communicate the sorting criteria used to allocate LDPC members to pages.
testing
Page
Links a resource to a container where notifications for the resource can be created and discovered.
