NAME

Data::URIID::Service - Extractor for identifiers from URIs

VERSION

version v0.05

SYNOPSIS

    use Data::URIID;

    my $extractor = Data::URIID->new;
    my $result = $extractor->lookup( $URI );
    my $service = $result->attribute('service');

    my $name = $service->name;
    my $ise = $service->ise;

METHODS

extractor

    my $extractor = $service->extractor;

Returns the Data::URIID object used to create this object.

ise

    my $ise = $service->ise;

Returns the ISE of this service.

name

    my $name = $service->name;

Returns the name of this service.

online

    my $online = $service->online( [ $new_value ] );

Gets or sets the online status of the service. If this value is false no online operations are permitted. In addition to this value being true the online value for the extractor need to be true.

See also "extractor", "online" in Data::URIID.

setting

    my $value = $service->setting( $setting[, $new_value ] );

Gets or sets the setting $setting the of the service.

The available settings depend on the service. This method may or may not die when an invalid setting or an invalid value is provided.

Setting an invalid value may result in failures when this service is being used.

KNOWN/SUPPORTED SERVICES

The following is a non-complete list of services for which lookups (online or offline) are supported. For a complete list of known services see "known" in Data::URIID.

wikidata and wikipedia

Wikidata is a large collection of machine readable data from all categories. It can act as a central connecting point for several types of identifiers and services. It also provides Wikipedia pages for the given subject.

The wikipedia services is only used for online lookups if a Wikipedia page is used as an input. It does not provide lookup from identifiers to Wikipedia links.

In many cases you want to enable online lookups for both wikidata, and wikipedia. This is specifically true if you want to work with very different services at once.

You commonly don't need to enable online lookups if all the services you're interested in use the same type of identifiers.

osm and overpass

The osm service is mainly used to lookup from OpenStreetMap identifiers to other identifiers as well as attributes. While the overpass service is mostly used to look up from other identifiers to OpenStreetMap identifiers.

If you work with places you most likely want to enable online lookups on those services.

factgrid

The factgrid provides information mostly on history topics. It contains a large amount of data for historical figures.

Data::URIID

This service is used to perform internal offline lookups on identifiers known to the module. It mainly provides display names for ISEs used by this module.
