## SYNOPSIS

### Command Line Tools

% jsonld-expand input.jsonld

Prints the JSON-LD 1.1 *expansion* of the data in `input.jsonld` to standard out.

% jsonld-compact input.jsonld

Prints the JSON-LD 1.1 *compaction* of the data in `input.jsonld` to standard out.

% jsonld-nq input.jsonld

Prints the JSON-LD 1.1 *deserialization* of the data in `input.jsonld` to standard out in the N-Quads format.

### JSON-LD Perl API

use v5.14;
use JSON qw(decode_json);
use JSONLD;

my $infile = 'test.jsonld';
open(my $fh, '<:utf8', $infile) or die $!;
my $content = do { local($/); <$fh> };
my $data = decode_json($content);

my $jld = JSONLD->new();
my $expanded = $jld->expand($data);

## DESCRIPTION

This module implements part of the JSON-LD 1.1 standard for manipulating
JSON data as linked data.

## METHODS

`expand( $data )`

Returns the JSON-LD expansion of `$data`.

`to_rdf( $data )`

Returns the dataset generated by turning the JSON-LD expansion of
`$data` into RDF.

Note: this method must be called on a `JSONLD` subclass which
implements the RDF-related methods listed below.
See [AtteanX::Parser::JSONLD](https://metacpan.org/pod/AtteanX::Parser::JSONLD)
for an implementation of such a subclass.

* `default_graph()`
* `new_dataset()`
* `new_triple($s, $p, $o)`
* `new_quad($s, $p, $o, $g)`
* `new_iri($value)`
* `new_graphname($value)`
* `new_blank( [$id] )`
* `new_lang_literal($value, $lang)`
* `new_dt_literal($value, $datatype)`
* `add_quad($quad, $dataset)`
