Dear all,

In PHP, there used to be no library supporting parsing/writing n-quads 
and TriG. Libraries that could handle Turtle or N-Triples however did 
not have streaming support and were always limited to files the size a 
machine could keep in memory. Today, that changed:

I have spent some time to port Ruben Verborgh’s great N3.js library to 
PHP. By doing so, we also achieved a parsing speed of 200 times the 
current most popular turtle parsing library in PHP [1]. We hope this 
library is a contribution to all websites that already served RDF today 
using PHP (Drupal, The DataTank, Wordpress, ...) and saves some servers 
from spending too many CPU cycles on RDF handling ;)

Kind regards,

Pieter Colpaert
