Querying an HTTP Source

This topic provides details about the structure to use when writing GDI queries to read or ingest data from HTTP data sources. It also includes example queries that may be useful as a starting point for writing your own GDI queries.

Query Syntax

The following query syntax shows the structure of a GDI query for HTTP sources. The clauses, patterns, and placeholders that are links are described below.

For readability, the parameters below exclude the base URI <http://cambridgesemantics.com/ontologies/DataToolkit#> as well as the s: prefix. As shown in the examples, however, the s: prefix or full property URI does need to be included in queries.

Option Type Description
PREFIX Clause N/A
The PREFIX clause declares the standard and custom prefixes for GDI service queries. Generally, queries include the prefixes from the query template (or a subset of them) plus any data-specific declarations.
Result Clause N/A The result clause defines the type of SPARQL query to run and the set of results to return, i.e., whether you want to read (SELECT or CONSTRUCT) from the source or ingest the data into Anzo (INSERT).
GRAPH ${targetGraph} N/A Include the GRAPH keyword and target graph parameter ${targetGraph} when writing an INSERT query to ingest data into a graphmart. Anzo automatically populates the query with the appropriate target URIs when the query runs.
${usingSources} N/A Include the source graph parameter ${usingSources} when writing a "topdown" query that passes values from the data that is in the graphmart to the data source. Anzo automatically populates the query with the appropriate FROM clauses when the query runs. When passing literal values to the remote source, you do not need to include the source graph parameter. The SERVICE Clause description below includes more information about passing input to data sources.
SERVICE Clause N/A
Include the SERVICE call SERVICE [ TOPDOWN ] <http://cambridgesemantics.com/services/DataToolkit> to invoke the GDI service when you are running a SELECT, INSERT, or CONSTRUCT query that is not creating a view. When writing a CONSTRUCT query in a View Step, use the DataToolkitView service call, as described below in View SERVICE Clause.

Include the optional TOPDOWN keyword when you want to pass input values from the graphmart to the data source. When you include TOPDOWN in the service call, it indicates that the rest of the query produces values to send to the source. In this case, the GDI makes repeated calls to pass in each of the specified values and retrieve the data that is based on those values.

View SERVICE Clause N/A
When writing a CONSTRUCT query that creates a view of the data (usually in a View Step), include the following SERVICE call: SERVICE <http://cambridgesemantics.com/services/DataToolkitView>(${targetGraph}). Using the DataToolkitView call optimizes query execution because it tells the GDI to inspect the query and determine which filters to push to the data source. It also limits the result set and retrieves only the data that is needed, i.e., the source data is fully mapped but all of the mapped data is not necessarily returned.
url string This property specifies the URL to use to access the source. Query binding variables can be inserted into the url string by surrounding the variable name with double curly braces. For example, "{{?name}}".

For security, it is a best practice to reference connection information (such as the url, username, and password) from a Query Context so that the sensitive details are abstracted from any requests. In addition, using a Query Context makes connection details reusable across queries. See Using Query Contexts for more information. For example:

?data a s:HttpSource ; s:url "{{@db.eca...f93ff9a.url}}" ; s:authorization [ a s:BasicAuth ; s:username "{{@db.eca...f93ff9a.user}}" ; s:password "{{@db.eca...f93ff9a.password}}" ; ]

authorization RDF list
This property specifies the type of authorization to use and the values for authentication. The options are BearerToken, AWSSignature, or BasicAuth.

s:authorization [ a s:BearerToken | s:AWSSignature | s:BasicAuth ]

BearerToken string
Specify this property when a bearer token is used for authentication, and include the token property.

s:authorization [ a s:BearerToken ;
s:token "string"
]

AWSSignature RDF list
For authorization to AWS service endpoints, specify this property and include the appropriate authentication properties from the list below:
  • accessKey: Include this property to specify the AWS access key.
  • region: Include this property to specify the AWS region.
  • secretKey: Include this property to specify the AWS secret key.
  • serviceName: Include this property to specify the AWS service name.
  • sessionToken: Include this property to specify the AWS session token.

s:authorization [
a s:AWSSignature ; s:accessKey "string" ;
s:region "string" ; s:secretKey "string" ;
s:serviceName "string" ; s:sessionToken "string" ; ]

BasicAuth RDF list
Specify this property when basic authentication is used, and include the username and password properties.

s:authorization [ a s:BasicAuth ;
s:username "string" ;
s:password "string" ;
]

trust string
Include this property to set the level of trust for the source's SSL certificate. The value can be either "system" or "all".
proxy string or RDF list
Include this property to specify proxy information if a proxy is used. The value can be a string, such as s:proxy "host_url:port_number", or an RDF list that includes host and port properties, such as s:proxy [ s:host "host_url" ; s:port port_number ].
header RDF list
You can use this property to specify name-value pairs to include as headers in the request. For example:

s:header [ s:name "Accept" ; s:value "application/json" ]

If you are creating a view, you can include variables in the s:header list. When another query is run against a view with variables, that query can map the variables through the view by including predicates in the CONSTRUCT clause.

mimetype string
You can include this property to specify the MIME type of the source. For example, s:mimetype "text/html".
contentType string
Include this property to specify the content type of the body of the request. For example, s:contentType "application/sparql-query" or s:contentType "application/json".
content string or RDF list This property can be included to send content to the source in the body of the request. For example, content can be a SPARQL query, JSON arrays, or a list of key-value pairs. Content can also be configured with an inline object (blank node) that gets translated to JSON. For more information, see Mapping the Content Property to JSON below.
parameter RDF list
You can include this property to list any URL parameters as name-value pairs. For example, the s:parameter property below adds format to return results in CSV format and the named-graph-uri parameter to target a specific layer in a graphmart.

s:parameter [ s:name "format" ; s:value "csv" ] , [ s:name "named-graph-uri" ;
s:value "http://cambridgesemantics.com/Layer/d541..." ]

If you are creating a view, you can include variables in the s:parameter list. When another query is run against a view with variables, that query can map the variables through the view by including predicates in the CONSTRUCT clause.

method string
You can include this property to specify the HTTP method. For example, s:method "GET" or s:method "POST".
encoding string
When targeting a file, you can include this property to specify the character encoding used by the file. The default value is s:encoding "utf8".
form RDF list
To send data to the HTTP endpoint, you can use this property to post the data. Form is a list of name-value pairs. When including s:form, you must also include s:contentType "multipart/form-data". The GDI sends the form object as an application/x-www-form-urlencoded string that contains the specified parameters. See Example form Parameter Usage below for sample usage.
format RDF list If the data is file-based, you can include the format property to add parameters that describe the source. See File Source Format Options for details about the supported parameters.
timeout int
This property can be used to specify the timeout (in milliseconds) to use for requests against the source. For example, s:timeout 5000 configures a 5 second timeout.
batching boolean or int
This property can be used to disable batching, or it can be used to change the default the batch size. By default, batching is set to 5000 (s:batching 5000). To disable batching, you can include s:batching false in the query. Typically users do not change the batching size. However, it can be useful to control the batch size when performing updates. To configure the size, include s:batching int in the query. For example, s:batching 3000.
paging RDF list
This property can be used to configure paging so that the GDI can access large amounts of data across a number of smaller requests. For details about the paging property, see Paginating Requests.
concurrency int or RDF list
This property can be included to configure the maximum level of concurrency for the query. The value can be an integer, such as s:concurrency 8. If the value is an integer, it configures a maximum limit on the number of slices that can execute the query. For finer-grained control over the number of nodes and slices to use, concurrency can also be included as an object with limit, nodes, and/or executorsPerNode properties. For example, the following object configures a concurrency model that allows a maximum of 24 executors distributed across 4 nodes with 8 executors per node:

s:concurrency [ s:limit 24 ; s:nodes 4 ; s:executorsPerNode 8 ; ] ;

rate int or string
This property can be included to control the frequency with which a request is sent to the source. The limit applies to the number of requests a single slice can make. If you specify an integer for the rate, then the value is treated as the maximum number of requests to issue per minute. If you specify a string, you have more flexibility in configuring the rate. The sample values below show the types of values that are supported:

s:rate "90/minute" ; s:rate "90 per minute" ; s:rate "200000 every week" ; s:rate "10000 every 6 hours" ;

To enforce the rate limit, the GDI introduces a sleep between requests that is equal to the rate delay. The more executing slices, the longer the rate delay needs to be to enforce the limit in aggregate.

Given the example of s:rate "90/minute", the GDI would optimize the concurrency and only use 1 slice for execution with a rate delay of 666ms between requests. If s:rate "240/minute", the GDI would use 3 executors with a rate delay of 750ms between requests.

partitionBy string, variable, list The GDI attempts to partition queries automatically across the available cores (slices) in AnzoGraph. To determine how to partition the query, the GDI uses metadata from the source. It looks for any column in an index, preferring the primary key column if it is interpolable. However, it only considers the first column in any index on the table. After determining the partition column, the GDI does a MIN/MAX on the column as well as a basic sizing query. To specify which column or columns the GDI should partition on, you can include the partitionBy property in the query. The property supports a list of source field names, bound variables, or the object s:auto, which forces the GDI to partition the data when the source does not define partitioning metadata.
locale string
This property can be used to specify the locale to use when parsing locale-dependent data such as numbers, dates, and times.
sampling int
This property can be used to configure the number of records in the source to examine for data type inferencing.
selector string or RDF list
This property can be used as a binding component to identify the path to the source objects. For example, s:selector "Sales.SalesOrderHeader" targets the SalesOrderHeader table in the Sales schema. For more information about binding components and the selector property, see Using Binding Trees and Selector Paths.
model string
This property defines the class (or table) name for the type of data that is generated from the specified data source. For example, s:model "employees". Model is optional when querying a single source. If your query targets multiple sources, however, and you want to define resource templates (primary keys) and object properties (foreign keys), you must specify the model value for each source.
key string
This property can be used to define the primary key column for the source file or table. This column is leveraged in a resource template for the instances that are created from the source. For example, s:key ("EMPLOYEE_ID"). For more information about key, see Data Linking Options.
reference RDF list
This property can be used to specify a foreign key column. The reference property is an RDF list that includes the model property to list the target table and a using property that defines the foreign key column. For more information about reference, see Data Linking Options.
formats RDF list
To give users control over the data types that are used when coercing strings to other types, this property can be included in GDI queries to define the desired types. In addition, it can be used to describe the formats of date and time values in the source to ensure that they are recognized and parsed to the appropriate date, time, and/or dateTime values. For details about the formats property, see Data Type Formatting Options.
normalize RDF list
To give users control over the labels and URIs that are generated, the GDI offers several options for normalizing the model and/or the fields that are created from the specified data source(s). For details about the normalize property, see Model Normalization Options.
count variable
If you want to turn the query into a COUNT query, you can include this property with a ?variable to perform a count. For example, s:count ?count.
offset int
This property can be used to offset the data that is returned by a number of rows.
orderBy string, variable, list
You can include this property to order the result set by a field name, a bound variable, or a list of names or bound variables.
limit int
You can include this property to limit the number of results that are returned. s:limit maps to the SPARQL LIMIT clause.
mapping_variable variable
The mapping variables, in ?mapping_variable (["binding"] [datatype] ["datetime_format"]) format, define the triple patterns to output. When the specified ?variable matches the source column name, the GDI uses the variable as the source data selector. If you specify an alternate variable name, a binding needs to be specified to map the new variable to the source. You also have the option to transform the data using the datatype and datetime_format options.

The parentheses around the binding, data type, and format specifications are not required but are included in this document for readability.

binding string
The binding is a literal value that binds a ?mapping_variable to a source column. If you specify a ?variable that matches the source column name, then that variable name is the data selector and it is not necessary to specify a binding. If you specify an alternate variable name or there is a hierarchical path to the source column, then the binding is needed to map the new variable to that source column.

For example for CSV, the following pattern simply binds the source column AIRLINE to the lowercase variable ?airline: ?airline ("AIRLINE").

For FileSource, periods (.), forward slashes (/), and brackets ([ ]) are parsed as path notation. Therefore, if a source column name includes any of those characters they must be escaped in the binding. Use two backslashes (\\) as an escape character. For example, if a column name is average/day, the variable and binding pattern could be written as ?averagePerDay ("average\\/day").

datatype URI
The datatype is the data type to convert the column to. If you do not specify a data type, the GDI infers the type. The GDI supports the following types:

xsd:int, xsd:long, xsd:float, xsd:double, xsd:boolean, xsd:time, xsd:dateTime, xsd:date, xsd:duration, xsd:dayTimeDuration, xsd:yearMonthDuration, xsd:gMonthDay, xsd:gMonth, xsd:gYearMonth, xsd:anyURI

datetime_format string
This option is used to specify the format to use for date and time data types. The GDI supports Java date and time formats. Specify days as "d," months as "M," and years as "y." For the time, specify "H" for hours, "m" for minutes, and "s" for seconds. For example, "yyyyMMdd HH:mm:ss" or "ddMMMyy" to display date values such as "01JAN19."

The GDI's default base year is 2000. If the source data has years with only two digits, such as 02-04-99, the GDI prepends 20 to the digits. The value 02-04-99 is parsed to 02-04-2099. To specify an alternate base year to use for two-digit values, you can include the notation ^nnnn (e.g., ^1900) in the format value. For example, to set the base year to 1900 instead of 2000, use a format value such as xsd:date "dd-MMM-yy^1900" or xsd:date "dd-MMM-yy^1990". When one of those values is specified, 02-04-99 is parsed to 02-04-1999.

Mapping the Content Property to JSON

The s:content property can be configured with an inline object (blank node) that gets translated to JSON in the request body. This mapping allows for creation of embedded objects and arrays as well as a mechanism for iterating over all available input so that HTTP endpoints that support batching can be used more effectively.

Using Blank Nodes

Blank nodes are used to create an object in the output JSON. The local name of any predicate used within content becomes a key in the generated JSON object. Blank nodes can be embedded within each other, allowing the hierarchical nature of JSON to be represented. For example:

s:content [ ex:firstName "Mary" ; ex:lastName "Barry" ] ;

Or

s:content [ ex:person [ ex:firstName "Mary" ] ] ;

Using Variables

Variables can be also used in the object position to construct a request from input at runtime. For example:

s:content [ ex:firstName ?firstName ; ex:lastName ?lastName ] ;

The values for the variables can come from a TOPDOWN variable, a VALUES clause in the SERVICE block, or another data source. Any unbound variables in the input will not be added to the generated JSON object.

Using RDF Lists

An RDF list can also be used to create an array in the output JSON. For example:

s:content [ ex:allKnownNames ( ?firstName ?lastName ?nickName ) ]

An RDF list can also be embedded inside another list to create an array in the output JSON and populate it with items evaluated against a repeating pattern across all available input rows for a slice. That pattern can be a variable, which generates an array of primitive values, or a blank node, which generates an array of mapped JSON objects. For example:

s:content [ ex:documents ((?id)) ] ;

Or

s:content [ ex:documents (([ ex:id ?id ; ex:title ?title ])) ;

Example

The following example query demonstrates the use of s:content to generate JSON. The query also includes the s:concurrency property to restrict execution to a single slice. Without limiting execution when there are a small number of inputs (as in the VALUES clause), each input row gets executed on its own. As the inputs increase, each slice operates over a larger number of inputs until the default s:batching 5000 is applied.

Query Examples

Topdown Query with URL Parameters

The query below reads data from a sample HTTP source that compiles worldwide weather statistics. The source has several models available for retrieving data that is current, daily, historical, etc. To target current data, the query includes s:selector "currently". In addition, the query demonstrates the use of the "topdown" functionality, where the query sends values to the source to narrow the results. The VALUES clause specifies the latitude and longitude values for the cities to return data for. In addition, since this sample source requires parameters to be specified in the connection URL, the s:url value includes ?lat and ?long as parameters as part of the value.
