If you can transform it into a JSON Structure you can take any of the numerous JavaScript Template Libraries around. I personally prefer Handlebars, but also Mustache, Underscore are valid contenders. The interesting tidbit is how to map a Graph to a defined JSON Structure which can be consumed by a Template. Hi Michael! :-) That is what we are doing right now by hand to map the pointed graph to JS. We could automate it of course. ( if there is a library to do that already that would save us some time, please let us know ). The problem is that we want to put actions on the HTML so that when a field is updated it should update a particular graph in the store ( and the remote LDP resource of course ). But for this the field needs to know what relation it was to what subject, so that the triple can be updated or removed. If one has create json that contains each of the properties, the types, etc, that seems a bit heavy. ( But perhaps that can be done with JSON=LD ? ... Hmmm.... The problem with JSON-LD would be that we then would then risk serialisng the whole graph into JSON-LD when perhaps only a small part will be needed in the html template... It is the template that really queries the graph to fill it out.) So the problem is to solve the mapping into HTML in such a way that it is easy to map back to the store when changes are made.. > > Michael > > > On 18.12.2013, at 17:04, Henry Story <henry.story@bblfish.net> wrote: > >> Hi all, >> >> I have a quick question: >> >> Is there a simple RDF to HTML templating library? >> >> We have developed an initial PointedGraph library for >> rdflib [1], and would like to have a function such as >> >> template.apply(pg,template) >> >> which would bind the pointed graph to a template. >> I imagine this could be best done with an RDFa >> template, but I don't know what the issues with >> this are.
