Primary LanguagePythonBSD 3-Clause "New" or "Revised" LicenseBSD-3-Clause

Resource Descriptors in Python

Supports serialization/deserialization of XRD (http://docs.oasis-open.org/xri/xrd/v1.0/xrd-1.0.html) and JRD (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6415).

Outstanding issues:

  • support ds:Signature
  • support XRDS
  • parsing of Expires date stamp from XML
  • more tests are needed

Basic usage:

from rd import RD, Link

lnk = Link(rel='http://spec.example.net/photo/1.0',
           type='image/jpeg',
           href='http://photos.example.com/gpburdell.jpg')
lnk.titles.append(('User Photo', 'en'))
lnk.titles.append(('Benutzerfoto', 'de'))
lnk.properties.append(('http://spec.example.net/created/1.0', '1970-01-01'))

rd = RD(subject='http://example.com/gpburdell')
rd.properties.append('http://spec.example.net/type/person')
rd.links.append(lnk)

rd.to_json()
rd.to_xml()
