solidAPI.rdf.cache : Object.<string, N3.N3Store>

cache of N3.store : cache[url] is the store of url example :

• to add a quadsArray to the store : cache[url].addQuads(quadsArray)
• all N3 store functions can be used

solidAPI.rdf.query(source, s, p, o, g) ⇒ Array.<N3.Quad>

loads a Turtle file, parses it, returns an array of quads expects URL of a source file, if empty, uses previously loaded file expects Turtle strings for subject, predicate, object, & optional graph supports this non-standard syntax for Turtle strings -

• {somePrefix:someTerm} somePrefix is then replaced using URLs from solid-namespace the special prefix thisDoc {thisDoc:me} uses current doc as namespace
• N3 quad subject, predicate, object and optional graph
