# cod2rdf(1)

describe (in RDF format) properties of COD structures.

## NAME

cod2rdf - describe (in RDF format) properties of COD structures.

## SYNOPSIS

cod2rdf --options 1000000 "\[1-9\]\[0-9\]{6}"

## DESCRIPTION

Describe (in RDF format) properties of COD structures.

## OPTIONS

\-d, --database  cod\
                   Use database "cod" to query for structures.

\-h, --host   www.crystallography.net

\-s, --server www.crystallography.net\
                   Query COD database on the host 'www.crystallography.net'.

\-l, --localhost\
                   Use database server on the localhost to query the\
                   COD database.

\-p, --port 3306\
                   Use the specified port to query structures\
                   (default: 3306).

\--platform mysql\
                   Use specified SQL platform (default: 'mysql').

\-u, --user cod\_reader\
                   Use user name "cod\_reader" to access the COD database.\
                   This user should have at least the SELECT privilege,\
                   i.e. should be able to read the COD database, without\
                   supplying a password.

\--password\
                   Use the specified password to connect (default: '').

\--vocabulary-namespace cod\
                   Use vocabulary namespace "cod" to prefix properties\
                   native to the queried database.

\--vocabulary-url-prefix http://www.crystallography.net/cod/doc/rdf/\
                   Specify URL prefix for database's native namespace.

\--prefix, --db-url-prefix http://www.crystallography.net/cod/\
                   Specify URL prefix for all objects in the queried\
                   database.

\--postfix, --db-url-postfix .html\
                   Specify URL postfix for all objects in the queried\
                   database.

\--def-table, --definition-table databases\
                   Look "databases" table for descriptions of remote\
                   databases.

\--db-name, --database-name cod\
                   Use "cod" as the abbreviation of queried databases.\
                   This abbreviation is used in construction of\
                   cross-referencing table names, i.e. "pubchem\_x\_cod".

\--from\
                   Generate RDFs for all database entries starting at\
                   specified entry and ending at either the entry\
                   specified using '--to' command line option or the\
                   last entry in the database.

\--to\
                   Generate RDFs for all database entries from either the\
                   entry specified using '--from' command line option or\
                   the first entry in the database.

\--range\
                   Generate RDFs for all database entries in the specified\
                   range. Range should be specified in the form 'X-Y', where\
                   X is the first and Y is the last entry.

\--revision\
                   Generate RDFs for all database entries deposited in the\
                   specified or older Subversion revision of the database.

\--split-author-names\
                   Split author names in internal database representation\
                   at semicolons (';') to produce RDF-parsable list of\
                   author names. Each author in such list is marked with\
                   "author" property instead of "authors", which is used\
                   for non-split value (default).

\--no-split-author-names, --dont-split-author-names\
                   Make no assumptions about internal database\
                   representation of author list.

\--xml-output\
                   Output RDF in XML carrier format (default).

\--n3-output\
                   Output RDF in N3 (Notation3) carrier format.

\--turtle-output\
                   Output RDF in Turtle carrier format.

\--ntriples-output, --n-triples-output\
                   Output RDF in N-Triples carrier format.

\--replace-utf-codepoints-from\
                   Replace Unicode code points starting at specified point\
                   with carrier format-specific entities.

\--no-replace-utf-codepoints, --dont-replace-utf-code-points\
                   Leave Unicode code points unescaped (default).

\--html-utf-escapes\
                   Escape Unicode code points using HTML hexadecimal format\
                   corresponding to '&#x%04X;' formatted string (default).

\--internal-utf-escapes\
                   Escape Unicode code points using internal format\
                   corresponding to '\\u%04X' formatted string.

\--utf-escape-format\
                   Escape Unicode code points using format corresponding\
                   to the provided formatted string.

\--help, --usage\
                   Output a short usage message (this message) and exit.

\--version\
                   Output version information and exit.
