Introduction into Importing and Exporting Topic MapsΒΆ
tinyTiM provides no import / export mechanisms by default, but relies on TMAPIX I/O for importing and exporting topic maps.
Note
TMAPIX I/O is not part of the default Topic Maps engine and must be downloaded separately. The individual TopicMapReader implementations may introduce additional dependencies. At minimum the mio-syntaxpack lib and SLF4J is needed in the classpath.
| Topic Maps Syntax | Reading | Writing |
|---|---|---|
| CTM | Yes | Yes |
| CXTM | No | Yes |
| JTM | Yes | Yes |
| LTM | Yes | Yes |
| Snello | Yes | No |
| TM/XML | Yes | Yes |
| XTM 1.0 | Yes | Yes |
| XTM 2.0 | Yes | Yes |
| XTM 2.1 | Yes | Yes |
The supported syntaxes are not limited to Topic Maps syntaxes; TMAPIX I/O offers support for several RDF syntaxes which can be converted into a Topic Maps representation, the Importing RDF section provides more details how to use the RDF readers.
| RDF Syntax | Reading | Writing |
|---|---|---|
| N3 | Yes | No |
| N-Triples | Yes | No |
| RDF/XML | Yes | No |
| TriG | Yes | No |
| TriX | Yes | No |
