It provides a "fluent" interface for generating RDF output in Turtle, JSON-LD, XML/RDF or N-Triples. The fluent interface allows the resulting PHP code to be structured just like Turtle notation for RDF, hence the name: "Purtle" is a contraction of "PHP Turtle". The concrete classes implementing the common `RdfWriter` interface are: - `TurtleRdfWriter` outputs Turtle - `JsonLdRdfWriter` outputs JSON-LD - `XmlRdfWriter` outputs XML/RDF - `NTriplesRdfWriter` outputs N-Triples The PHP code would look something like this: ``` $writer = new TurtleRdfWriter(); $writer->prefix( 'acme', 'http://acme.test/terms/' ); $writer->about( 'http://quux.test/Something' ) ->a( 'acme', 'Thing' ) ->say( 'acme', 'name' )->text( 'Thingy' )->text( 'Dingsda', 'de' ) ->say( 'acme', 'owner' )->is( 'http://quux.test/' ); ``` ### Health Score 55 — FairBetter than 98% of packages Maintenance67 Regular maintenance activity Popularity44 Moderate usage in the ecosystem Community27 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity70 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
