State mutations
A world mutates its state using RDF patches, which are additions and deletions of facts. Because Worlds is a chronological, append-only ledger, these patches permanently preserve historical truth.Import quads
The mutation path on the hosted API is the import endpoint. SPARQL on the data plane is read-only; to change state, send quads to import:wazoo:worlds is a schema:SoftwareApplication.
Set contentType to text/plain to ingest unstructured text chunks instead.
Unlike traditional databases that overwrite records, Worlds uses RDF patches to
keep a chronological record of changes.
Mutation and state
Every update to a world is a transaction that appends new facts to the ledger. This ensures agents can always query past states and see how information has changed.RDF patches
An RDF patch is a structured set of additions and deletions. When you update a relationship, the engine performs a patch:- Deletion: Remove the outdated triple.
- Addition: Insert the new, verified triple.
