Solid #

Solid allows use of Tim Berners-Lee's new platform for a decentralized web, Solid, from within dart.

This package includes the solid library, and some of rdflib.

Installation #

Install Solid from pub:

dependencies:
    solid: ^0.2.3

Include solid-auth-client.bundle.js in your HTML before your dart file.

<script src="solid-auth-client.bundle.js"></script>
<script src="main.dart.js"></script>

You can find solid-auth-client.bundle.js here.

if you're also using RDFLib, make sure to include rdflib.min.js.

In your dart code, import

import 'package:solid/solid.dart' as solid;

To use RDFLib, import

import 'package:solid/rdflib.dart' as $rdf;

Warning: In the future, rdflib may be moved to its own package.

Currently, logging in from JavaScript is written as

solid.auth.popupLogin({popupUri:'popup.html'});

Whereas in Dart, you write

solid.Auth.popupLogin(solid.LoginOptions(popupUri:'popup.html'));

Due issues with JavaScript Promise Interop, when using Fetcher.load, it must be wrapped in promiseToFuture (dart:html).

For example, in JavaScript, you write:

await fetcher.load(person);

In dart, you write:

await promiseToFuture(fetcher.load(person));
