NAME

ServiceParser - An module for parsing the RDF that describes a SADI service in the mygrid service ontology

SYNOPSIS

        use SADI::OWL::SADIServiceParser;
        use Data::Dumper;

        # construct a parser for service instances
        my $parser = SADI::OWL::SADIServiceParser->new();

        # get all services from a URL
        my $service_arref = $parser->getServices(
           'http://sadiframework.org/services/getMolecularInteractions'
        );

        # print out details regarding 'getMolecularInteractions'
        print Dumper( $service_arrayref );

DESCRIPTION

This module contains the methods required to download and parse service instance RDF into individual services

WARNING

Do not attempt to parse service instance RDF containing more than a few hundred services because the RDF is parsed and held in memory.
