CubicWeb
open-in-new
<h2 id="concepts">Concepts</h2> <p>The framework is entirely driven by a data model. Once the data model is defined, one gets a functional web application and can further customize the views (by default it provides a set of default views for each type of data). </p><p>A cube is a reusable component defining specific features. For example, a cube <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20090728185220/http://www.cubicweb.org/project/cubicweb-forge">forge</a> allows one to create one's own forge and the forge cube reuses the cubes comment, file, email, etc. Interesting general purpose cubes include dbpedia and openlibrary. </p><p>The framework has been translated to English, French, Spanish and German (April 2011). </p> <h2 id="functions">Functions</h2> <ul><li>Semantic web: supports <a href="/facts/Web_Ontology_Language/jkr0IGn8">OWL</a>/<a href="/facts/Resource_Description_Framework/WMufyukm">RDF</a></li> <li>Multi-source: supports RQL, <a href="/facts/SQL/UjQLJcYm">SQL</a>, <a href="/facts/LDAP/KgpfD8nR">LDAP</a>, <a href="/facts/Subversion_(software)/b5j9wAbt">Subversion</a> and <a href="/facts/Mercurial/lEkoYb6C">Mercurial</a></li> <li>RQL: Relationship query language to ease data querying</li> <li>Migration tool: fits into agile development</li> <li>View selection principle: the engine selects the best view to fit the content to display according to the context</li> <li>Cubes library: a wide range of cubes are available on the forge</li></ul> <h2 id="see-also">See also</h2> <ul><li><a href="/facts/Jena_(framework)/n5W0jCIt">Jena</a></li> <li><a href="/facts/Mulgara_(software)/ndPpnLDD">Mulgara</a></li> <li><a href="/facts/RDFLib/lrqPdzK2">RDFLib</a></li> <li><a href="/facts/Sesame_(framework)/AVFrpG23">Sesame</a></li></ul> <h2 id="further-reading">Further reading</h2> <ul><li>Grehan, Rick (10 August 2011). <a href="http://www.infoworld.com/article/2621362/application-development/pillars-of-python--cubicweb-web-framework.html">"Pillars of Python: CubicWeb Web framework"</a>. <i>InfoWorld</i>.
