NAMEtracker-sparql − Use SparQL to query the Tracker databases.
SYNOPSIStracker sparql −q <sparql> [−u] | −f <file>
tracker sparql −t [class] [-s <needle>] [−p]
tracker sparql [−c] [−p] [−x] [-n [class]] [−i [property]] [−s <needle>]
tracker sparql [−−get−longhand <class>] [−−get−shorthand <class>]
DESCRIPTIONThis command allows probing of the current database schema (also known as ontology) and running low level queries or updates on the data set. In terms of the database ontology, it's easy to find out what properties are indexed for speed, or notified on changes, what classes are available and the properties belonging to those classes. There are also visual tools to display an ascii tree layout of the classes and their relationships to each other. When the caller runs a query, the query is in RDF and SPARQL. This can be done two ways. Either by providing a file with the query or by providing a string with the sparql query. The file argument can be either a local path or a URI. It also does not have to be an absolute path.
OPTIONS−f, −−file=<file> Use a file with SPARQL content to query or update. −q, −−query=<sparql> Use a sparql string to query the database with. −u, −−update This has to be used with −−query. This tells "tracker sparql" to use the SPARQL update extensions so it knows it isn't a regular data lookup request. So if your query is intended to change data in the database, this option is needed. −c, −−list−classes Returns a list of classes which describe the ontology used for storing data. These classes are also used in queries. For example, http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#Resource is one of many classes which should be returned here. −x, −−list−class−prefixes Returns a list of classes and their related prefixes. Prefixes are used to make querying a lot simpler and are much like an alias. For example, http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#Resource has the prefix rdfs so queries can be cut down to: "SELECT ?u WHERE { ?u a rdfs:Resource }" −p, −−list−properties=[class] Returns a list of properties which pertain to a class. You can use both formats here for the class, either the full name http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2007/03/22/nfo#Video or the shortened prefix name nfo:Video. This gives the following result: $ tracker sparql -p nfo:Video
Properties: 2
http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2007/03/22/nfo#frameRate
http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2007/03/22/nfo#frameCountThese properties nfo:frameRate and nfo:frameCount can then be used in queries. See also −−tree and −−query. −n, −−list−notifies=[class] Returns a list of classes which are notified over D-Bus about any changes that occur in the database. The class does not have to be supplied here. This is optional and filters the results according to any argument supplied. With no class, all classes are listed. −i, −−list−indexes=[property] Returns a list of properties which are indexed in the database. Indexes improves query speed but also add an indexing penalty. The property does not have to be supplied here. This is optional and filters the results according to any argument supplied. With no property, all properties are listed. −t, −−tree=[class] Prints a tree showing all parent classes of class in the ontology. The class can be provided in shorthand or longhand (see −−get−shorthand and −−get−longhand for details). For example: $ tracker sparql -t nmo:MMSMessage
ROOT
+-- rdfs:Resource (C)
| +-- nie:InformationElement (C)
| | +-- nfo:Document (C)
| | | +-- nfo:TextDocument (C)
| | | | `-- nmo:Message (C)
| | | | | +-- nmo:PhoneMessage (C)
| | | | | | `-- nmo:MMSMessage (C)If no class is given, the entire tree is shown. The −−search command line option can be used to highlight parts of the tree you're looking for. The search is case insensitive. The −−properties command line option can be used to show properties for each class displayed, for example: $ tracker sparql -t nfo:FileDataObject -p

ENVIRONMENTTRACKER_SPARQL_BACKEND This option allows you to choose which backend you use for connecting to the database. This choice can limit your functionality. There are three settings. With "direct" the connection to the database is made directly to the file itself on the disk, there is no intermediary daemon or process. The "direct" approach is purely read-only. With "bus" the tracker-store process is used to liase with the database queuing all requests and managing the connections via an IPC / D-Bus. This adds a small overhead BUT this is the only approach you can use if you want to write to the database. With "auto" the backend is decided for you, much like it would be if this environment variable was undefined.
