Raptor RDF Parser provides a set of parsers and serializers that generate Resource Description Framework (RDF) triples

Raptor RDF Parser is a free software / Open Source C library that provides a set of parsers and serializers that generate Resource Description Framework (RDF) triples by parsing syntaxes or serialize the triples into a syntax.

The supported parsing syntaxes are RDF/XML, N-Triples, TRiG, Turtle, RSS tag soup including all versions of RSS, Atom 1.0 and 0.3, GRDDL and microformats for HTML, XHTML and XML. The serializing syntaxes are RDF/XML (regular, and abbreviated), Atom 1.0, GraphViz, JSON, N-Triples, RSS 1.0 and XMP.

Raptor RDF Parser was designed to work closely with the Redland RDF library (RDF Parser Toolkit for Redland) but is entirely separate.Raptor RDF Parser is a portable library that works across many POSIX systems (OS X, BSDs, Unix, GNU/Linux, cygwin, win32). Raptor has no memory leaks and is fast.
