module RDF::Util::File

Wrapper for retrieving RDF resources from HTTP(S) and file: scheme locations.

By default, HTTP(S) resources are retrieved using Net::HTTP. However, If the [Rest Client](rubygems.org/gems/rest-client) gem is included, it will be used for retrieving resources, allowing for sophisticated HTTP caching using [REST Client Components](rubygems.org/gems/rest-client-components) allowing the use of ‘Rack::Cache` to avoid network access.

To use other HTTP clients, consumers can subclass {RDF::Util::File::HttpAdapter} and set the {RDF::Util::File.}.

Also supports the file: scheme for access to local files.
