Linked Data Fragments Server - WebID

This package is not included by default in @ldf/server and @ldf/preset-qpf.

This package is a Linked Data Fragments Server module.

Usage in other packages

When this module is used in a package, then the JSON-LD context https://linkedsoftwaredependencies.org/contexts/@ldf/feature-webid.jsonld` must be imported.

This package exposes the following config entries:

• WebIdControllerExtension: Extends Quad Pattern Fragments responses with WebID authentication. Should be used as @type value.

Next to adding the WebID controller extension, you must enable HTTPS-mode, as shown in the example below.

For example:

{
  "@context": [
    "https://linkedsoftwaredependencies.org/bundles/npm/@ldf/core/^3.0.0/components/context.jsonld",
    "https://linkedsoftwaredependencies.org/bundles/npm/@ldf/preset-qpf/^3.0.0/components/context.jsonld",
    "https://linkedsoftwaredependencies.org/bundles/npm/@ldf/feature-webid/^3.0.0/components/context.jsonld",
  ],
  "@id": "urn:ldf-server:my",
  "import": "preset-qpf:config-defaults.json",

  "controllers": [
    {
      "@id": "urn:ldf-server:myQuadPatternFragmentsController", // This should refer to your existing QuadPatternFragmentsController
      "@type": "QuadPatternFragmentsController",
      "qpfControllerExtension": {
        "@id": "urn:ldf-server:myWebIdControllerExtension",
        "@type": "WebIdControllerExtension"
      }
    }
