RDF-Ext is a JavaScript library that extends the [RDF/JS](#rdf-js) specs to handle RDF data in a developer-friendly way.

## Install

```bash
npm install --save rdf-ext
```

## Usage

Just import the default export from the package:

```javascript
import rdf from 'rdf-ext'

const term = rdf.namedNode('http://example.org/')
```

The exported object is an instance of [@rdfjs/environment](https://github.com/rdfjs-base/environment).
The following factories are included in the environment:

- [DataFactory](https://github.com/rdfjs-base/data-model)
- [DatasetFactory](https://github.com/rdfjs-base/dataset)
- [FetchFactory](https://github.com/rdfjs-base/fetch-lite)
- [FormatsFactory](https://github.com/rdfjs-base/formats-common)
- [GrapoiFactory](https://github.com/rdf-ext/grapoi)
- [NamespaceFactory](https://github.com/rdfjs-base/namespace)
- [PrefixMapFactory](https://github.com/rdfjs-base/prefix-map)
- [TermMapFactory](https://github.com/rdfjs-base/term-map/)
- [TermSetFactory](https://github.com/rdfjs-base/term-set)
- [TraverserFactory](https://github.com/rdfjs-base/traverser)
