RDFpad is a Jena-based Linked Data server that reads RDF in Turtle notation from any etherpad and provides it in various RDF serializations (each served with the corresponding content-type headers), plus a human-friendly HTML view.
RDFpad therefore supports quick and dirty vocabulary development, without the hassle of bringing your code online in a second step – it is already online while you develop it.
*Reads turtle code from any etherpad and checks it for errors *Acts as a proxy to serve the corresponding RDF model as RDF/XML, N-Triples, N3 (and Turtle, of course) with the correct content-type headers *Proper 303 redirects; the same URI forwards to different encodings, depending on the Accept-header sent by the client *Provides a human-friendly HTML view of the code, with direct access to the various RDF serializations and a forwarding option to the Sindice Inspector
A running demo is available at http://rdfpad.lodum.de/ This blog post explains the idea behind RDFpad in a bit more detail
You'll need the libs that come with Jena (tested with version 2.6.4) and Jetty (tested with version 7.3.0). RDFpad is an embedded server, so there is no need for a servlet container (Tomcat or the like).
##Running RDFpad
Assuming you have the required libs on your path, simply start the server via
java de.lodum.rdfpad.RDFpadServer [port]
For example, java de.lodum.rdfpad.RDFpadServer 8080 . Note that there are some caveats if you want to run RDFpad on port 80 on a Unix-based system.
