RDF Inspector
Welcome to RDF Inspector, the RDF debugging and analysis developer tool for FireFox. The goals of this project are to do for RDF what DOM Inspector did for HTML and XUL development. By providing visibility into the contents of an RDF datasource, watching changes to the datasource in real-time, and supplying multiple visualization methods for observing RDF metadata, hopefully XUL template and other sorts of RDF issues can become easier to deal with.
This project is still in its beginning stages, but is now partly functional for those who would like to give it a test drive. Many features are unimplemented, and I have many more features to add beyond what currently has stubs.
Features
- Open multiple RDF datasources simultaneously
- Opens files as well as XPCOM-registered datasources
- Integrated with DOM Inspector, adding "Inspect Datasource" context menu items for DOM properties that are instances of nsIRDFDataSource
- Support for shortening resource names using RDF Namespaces (with a namespace editor)
- Parent/child visualization of composite datasources
- Save datasources to a file
Planned Features
- Tree-view representation of RDF by selecting a subject to use as a "reference" root
- XUL Template Wizard that allows one to build a XUL template by browsing the above tree-view
- Create new datasources and copy statements from one datasource to another
- SVG node-graph visualization of RDF statements
