Utility package for exporting shorthand functions for constructing RDF objects

## NAME

Attean::RDF - Utility package for exporting shorthand functions for constructing RDF objects

## VERSION

This document describes Attean::RDF version 0.035

## SYNOPSIS

```
  use v5.14;
  use Attean::RDF;

  my $s = blank('b');
  my $p = iri('http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name');
  my $o = langliteral("Eve", "en");
  my $triple = triple($s, $p, $o);
  say $triple->as_string; # _:b <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name> "Eve"@en .
```

## DESCRIPTION

This is a utility package for exporting shorthand functions for constructing RDF objects such as IRIs, Literals, Blanks, Triples, etc.
