class oc_ocdm.graph.entities.bibliographic.resource_embodiment.ResourceEmbodiment(g, g_set, res=None, res_type=None, resp_agent=None, source=None, count=None, label=None, short_name='', preexisting_graph=None)[source]

Bases: oc_ocdm.graph.entities.bibliographic_entity.BibliographicEntity

Resource embodiment (short: re): the particular physical or digital format in which a bibliographic resource was made available by its publisher.

Constructor of the AbstractEntity class.

Parameters

g (Graph) –
g_set (GraphSet) –
res (URIRef) –
res_type (URIRef) –
resp_agent (str) –
source (str) –
count (str) –
label (str) –
short_name (str) –
preexisting_graph (Graph) –

Return type

None

merge(other)[source]

The merge operation allows combining two ResourceEmbodiment entities into a single one, by marking the second entity as to be deleted while also copying its data into the current ResourceEmbodiment. Moreover, every triple from the containing GraphSet referring to the second entity gets “redirected” to the current entity: every other reference contained inside a different source (e.g. a triplestore) must be manually handled by the user!

In case of functional properties, values from the current entity get overwritten by those coming from the second entity while, in all other cases, values from the second entity are simply appended to those of the current entity. In this context, rdfs:label is considered as a functional property, while rdf:type is not.

Parameters: other (ResourceEmbodiment) – The entity which will be marked as to be deleted and whose properties will be merged into the current entity.
Raises: TypeError – if the parameter is of the wrong type
Returns: None
Return type: None

get_media_type()[source]

Getter method corresponding to the dcterms:format RDF predicate.

Returns: The requested value if found, None otherwise
Return type: Optional[URIRef]

has_media_type(thing_res)[source]

Setter method corresponding to the dcterms:format RDF predicate.

WARNING: this is a functional property, hence any existing value will be overwritten!

It allows one to specify the IANA media type of the embodiment.

Parameters: thing_res (URIRef) – The value that will be set as the object of the property related to this method
Raises: TypeError – if the parameter is of the wrong type
Returns: None
Return type: None

remove_media_type()[source]

Remover method corresponding to the dcterms:format RDF predicate.

Returns: None
Return type: None

get_starting_page()[source]

Getter method corresponding to the prism:startingPage RDF predicate.

Returns: The requested value if found, None otherwise
Return type: Optional[str]

has_starting_page(string)[source]

Setter method corresponding to the prism:startingPage RDF predicate.

The string gets internally preprocessed by eventually removing dashes and everything that follows them (e.g. ‘22-45’ becomes ‘22’).

WARNING: this is a functional property, hence any existing value will be overwritten!

The first page of the bibliographic resource according to the current embodiment.

Parameters: string (str) – The value that will be set as the object of the property related to this method. It must be a string that starts with an integer number.
Raises: TypeError – if the parameter is of the wrong type
Returns: None
Return type: None

remove_starting_page()[source]

Remover method corresponding to the prism:startingPage RDF predicate.

Returns: None
Return type: None

get_ending_page()[source]

Getter method corresponding to the prism:endingPage RDF predicate.

Returns: The requested value if found, None otherwise
Return type: Optional[str]

has_ending_page(string)[source]

Setter method corresponding to the prism:endingPage RDF predicate.

The string gets internally preprocessed by eventually removing dashes and everything that comes before them (e.g. ‘22-45’ becomes ‘45’).

WARNING: this is a functional property, hence any existing value will be overwritten!

The last page of the bibliographic resource according to the current embodiment.

Parameters: string (str) – The value that will be set as the object of the property related to this method. It must be a string that ends with an integer number.
Raises: TypeError – if the parameter is of the wrong type
Returns: None
Return type: None

remove_ending_page()[source]

Remover method corresponding to the prism:endingPage RDF predicate.

Returns: None
Return type: None

get_url()[source]

Getter method corresponding to the frbr:exemplar RDF predicate.

Returns: The requested value if found, None otherwise
Return type: Optional[URIRef]

has_url(thing_res)[source]

Setter method corresponding to the frbr:exemplar RDF predicate.

WARNING: this is a functional property, hence any existing value will be overwritten!

The URL at which the embodiment of the bibliographic resource is available.

Parameters: thing_res (URIRef) – The value that will be set as the object of the property related to this method
Raises: TypeError – if the parameter is of the wrong type
Returns: None
Return type: None

remove_url()[source]

Remover method corresponding to the frbr:exemplar RDF predicate.

Returns: None
Return type: None

create_digital_embodiment()[source]

Setter method corresponding to the rdf:type RDF predicate. It implicitly sets the object value fabio:DigitalManifestation.

WARNING: the OCDM specification admits at most two types for an entity. The main type cannot be edited or removed. Any existing secondary type will be overwritten!

It identifies the particular type of the embodiment, either digital or print.

Returns: None
Return type: None

create_print_embodiment()[source]

Setter method corresponding to the rdf:type RDF predicate. It implicitly sets the object value fabio:PrintObject.

WARNING: the OCDM specification admits at most two types for an entity. The main type cannot be edited or removed. Any existing secondary type will be overwritten!

It identifies the particular type of the embodiment, either digital or print.

Returns: None
Return type: None
