Minimal Example

Overview

The templates can be used to generate either a complete XHTML page or a snippet of additional

elements that can be inserted into any HTML page just before the closing

element.

The type of result is controlled via the "snippet" parameter.

  • snippet=True: return HTML for insertion into an existing HTML page
  • snippet=False: return a complete page.


If you have full control over the page template, it will be easier to use snippet=False and insert all of your visible XHTML markup into the respective template file.

If it is likely that users of your application edit or replace your XHTML templates, it is better to create RDFa snippets only and insert them just before the final HTML is sent to the client. static_html = """< existing HTML content >"""

...

  1. Create RDFa snippet

snippet = template.render(company_data, snippet=True) # populate template snippet = snippet.encode('UTF-8')

  1. Insert the snippet just before the closing {=html} <body> element.

html = static_html.replace("

", snippet+"

") print html

}

from jinja2 import * loader = FileSystemLoader('.') env = Environment( loader=loader, autoescape=True, trim_blocks=True) template = env.get_template('template-company.html')

  1. OPTION 1: Create full HTML+RDFa page

title = "Website of Best Purchase Electronics Shop Ltd." html = template.render(company_data, snippet=False, title=title) # populate template html = html.encode('UTF-8') print html

  1. OPTION 2: Create and insert a RDFa snippet

static_html = """ <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML+RDFa 1.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/DTD/xhtml-rdfa-1.dtd">

   'unit_code' : "GRM", # Unit: gram (use UN/CEFACT common code)
   'datatype' : "float" # only "float" and "integer" are supported
   }

  1. Focal length range: 20-120 mm

focal_length = {

   'type' : "quantitative",
   'uri' : "ceo:hasFocalLength",
   'min_value' : "20",
   'max_value' : "120",
   'unit_code' : "MMT", # Unit: mm (use UN/CEFACT common code)
   'datatype' : "float"
   }

  1. Add list of features to the product data dict

datasheet_data['features'] = [digital_zoom, video_res, display, weight, focal_length]

  1. Create RDFa snippet

template = env.get_template('template-datasheet.html') result = template.render(datasheet_data, snippet=True) # populate template r_utf8 = result.encode('UTF-8') open('output/snippet-datasheet-canon_eos550D-kit.html', 'w').write(r_utf8) # write result to file

  1. Create Full HTML+RDFa page

template = env.get_template('template-datasheet.html') title = "Best Purchase Electronics: Datasheet for the Canon EOS 550D KIT " rdf_uri = "http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/datasheets.rdf" company_name = "Best Purchase Electronics Shop Ltd." result = template.render(datasheet_data, snippet=False, rdf_uri=rdf_uri,

   title=title, company_name=company_name) # populate template

r_utf8 = result.encode('UTF-8') open('output/datasheet-canon_eos550D-kit.html', 'w').write(r_utf8) # write result to file

RDF Data Dump Template

  1. Important: When using HTML templating APIs or simple string operations for creating
  2. the RDF/XML dump file, make sure you properly encode special characters like <,>, &, '
  3. In this example, this has been done by "autoescape=True" in the statement
  4. env = Environment( loader=loader, autoescape=True)

template = env.get_template('template-rdf.rdf') rdf_data = {

   'company_data' : company_data, 
   'product_data' : [product_data,product_data2], # List of ALL products in your shop
   'brand_data' : brand_data, 
   'store_data' : store_data,
   'company_page' : "http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/index.html",
   'brands_page' : "http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/brands.html",
   'stores_page' : "http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/stores.html",
   # Prefix and URI for the vocabulary/ies to be used
   'prefixes' : [{'ns_prefix' : "ceo", 'ns_uri' : "http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/ontologies/consumerelectronics/v1#"}],
   # For the RDF/XML template, those are defined globally and you MUST use the prefixes consistently accross all products and datasheet.

}

result = template.render(rdf_data, minimal=False) # populate template r_utf8 = result.encode('UTF-8') open('output/goodrelations.rdf', 'w').write(r_utf8) # write result to file

Vocabulary Template

  1. Creating a shop-specific GoodRelations Vocabulary
  2. It is important that special characters are properly escaped in the resulting markup! ( e.g. & as & etc.)
  1. Master data for the company

base_uri = 'http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/shop-vocabulary.html' language = "en" # ISO 639-1 code for the language of the class and property labels, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_639-1 company_data = {

   'company_name' : "Best Purchase Electronics Shop Ltd.", # Official name of the business making the offer

   'license' : "Insert terms or conditions for using this page or URI of standard license - e.g. Creative Commons" 

}

  2. Products or services categories

categories = [

  1. Top-level Category - Clothing

   {
       'id' : "clothing", # short identifier for the product category (avoid special chars)
       'label' : "Clothing and Accessories", # name of the category
       'image_uri': "http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/images/clothing.png" # URI of an image for the category (optional)
       # no supercategory_id, because this is the top-level category
   },

  1. T-Shirts

   {
       'id' : "tshirts",
       'label' : "T-Shirts and related products", 
       'image_uri': "http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/images/tshirts.png",
       'supercategory_id' : "clothing", # The ID of the parent category, if it exists.
       # Note: The prefix C_ will be added by the template.
   },

  1. Accessories

   {
       'id' : "accessories",
       'label' : "Ties and Accessories", 
       'image_uri': "http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/images/accessories.png",
       'supercategory_id' : "clothing" 
   }

]

  2. Quantitative ("numerical") features for products

  3. Use this pattern for features that refer to a quantitative measurement, e.g.

  4. screen diameter, weight, seating capacity, operating voltage, etc.

  5. Note: You can always safely use text features (see below) as a fall-back option if unsure.

  6. However, this reduces the market visibility of your data.

quantitative_properties = [

  1. Weight

   {
       'id' : "weight",
       'label' : "Net weight of the product"
       # Note: The unit of measurement will be determined when describing an actual product
   },

  1. Operating temperature

   {
       'id' : "operating_temp",
       'label' : "Recommended operating temperature (can be a point value or interval)"
       # Note: The unit of measurement will be determined when describing an actual product
   }   

]

  2. Textual features for products

  3. Use this pattern for all features that hold textual values and that you cannot represent in a more granular way, e.g.

  4. color or maintenance instructions

  5. If you have a small, controlled set of allowed values, it is better to use qualitative properties

  6. and to predefine all allowed values.

text_properties = [

  1. Color

   {
       'id' : "color",
       'label' : "Color of the product"    
   },

  1. Care Instructions

   {
       'id' : "care_instructions",
       'label' : "Care and maintenance instructions for the product"   
   }

]

  2. Boolean features for products

  3. Use this pattern for all features that hold yes/no values

boolean_properties = [

  1. All-weather

   {
       'id' : "all_weather",
       'label' : "Suited for all-weather use"  
   }

]

  2. Qualitative properties, values, and value classes

qualitative_properties = [

  1. Material

   {
       'id' : "material",
       'label' : "Main material of the product"    
   },
   {
       'id' : "garment_size",
       'label' : "Garment size for T-Shirts and Sweaters"  
   }

]

  2. Value Classes

value_classes = [

  1. Shirt Size (S, M, L, XL, XXL)

   {
       'id' : "shirt_sizes",
       'label' : "Garment sizes for shirts and sweaters"   
   },

  1. Materials (Leather, Cotton, Synthetics)

   {
       'id' : "material_types",
       'label' : "Material types for products" 
   }

]

  2. Values

values = [

  1. Shirt Sizes (S, M, L, XL, XXL)
  2. Example of ordered values

   {
       'id' : "S",
       'label' : "Garment size: Small (S)",    
       'class_id' : "shirt_sizes", # The ID of the value type
       'lesser' : "M", # The ID of the next greater value

       'greater' : "S" # The ID of next smaller value
   },
   {
       'id' : "L",
       'label' : "Garment size: Large (L)",    
       'class_id' : "shirt_sizes", # The ID of the value type
       'lesser' : "XL", # The ID of the next greater value 
       'greater' : "M" # The ID of next smaller value

       'greater' : "XL" # The ID of next smaller value
   },

  1. Materials (Leather, Cotton, Synthetics)
  2. Example of unordered values

   {
       'id' : "leather",
       'label' : "Material: Genuine Leather",  
       'class_id' : "material_types" # The ID of the value type

Sitemap Template

  1. Important: When using HTML templating APIs or simple string operations for creating
  2. the XML sitemap file, make sure you properly encode special characters like <,>, &, '
  3. In this example, this has been done by "autoescape=True" in the statement
  4. env = Environment( loader=loader, autoescape=True)

template = env.get_template('template-sitemap.xml')

sitemap_data = {

   'uris' : [], # List with all "regular" HTML pages, will be populated later
   'label' : "GoodRelations RDF Data Dump for http://www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/",

   'rdf_changefreq' : "daily" # Typical change frequency of the RDF/XML data dump
   }

  1. Compile a list of all company, product item, and brand URIs

pages = ['http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/index.html',

       'http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/brands.html',
       'http:/www.heppnetz.de/gr4shops/stores.html',

   # 'changefreq' : "daily" # Typical change frequency for that page

result = template.render(sitemap_data)

  1. write result to file

r_utf8 = result.encode('UTF-8') open('output/sitemap.xml', 'w').write(r_utf8)
