Data Servers

The dataServers config passed to the semantic data provider describes the servers to which we want to connect and what they contain. These information can be guessed from the various plugins we provide.

Example

const dataServers = {
  server1: {
    name: 'Server 1',
    baseUrl: 'http://localhost:3000',
    default: true,
    authServer: true,
    sparqlEndpoint: 'http://localhost:3000/sparql',
    containers: [
      {
        path: '/users'
        types: ['foaf:Person']
      }
    ]
  }
};
