###Loading remote graphs
### Loading remote graphs

rdfstore-js will try to retrieve remote RDF resources across the network when a 'LOAD' SPARQL query is executed.
The node.js build of the library will use regular TCP sockets and perform proper content negotiation. It will also follow a limited number of redirections.

### RDF Interface API

The store object includes a 'rdf' object implementing a RDF environment as described in the [RDF Interfaces 1.0](http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-interfaces/) W3C's working draft.

###Default Prefixes
### Default Prefixes

Default RDF name-spaces can be specified using the *registerDefaultNamespace*. These names will be included automatically in all queries. If the same name-space is specified by the client in the query string the new prefix will shadow the default one.
A collection of common name-spaces like rdf, rdfs, foaf, etc. can be automatically registered using the *registerDefaultProfileNamespace* function.

###Events API
### Events API

rdfstore-js implements an experimental events API that allows clients to observe changes in the RDF graph and receive notifications when parts of this graph changes.
The two main event functions are *subscribe* that makes possible to set up a callback function that will be invoked each time triples matching a certain pattern passed as an argument are added or removed, and the function *startObservingNode* that will be invoked with the modified version of the node each time triples are added or removed from the node.

In the same way, there are *startObservingQuery* and *stopObservingQuery* functions that makes possible to set up callbacks for whole SPARQL queries.
The store will try to be smart and not perform unnecessary evaluations of these query after quad insertion/deletions. Nevertheless too broad queries must be used carefully with the events API.

###Custom Filter Functions
### Custom Filter Functions

Custom filter function can be registered into the store using the *registerCustomFunction* function. This function receives two argument, the name of the custom function and the associated implementation. This functions will be available in a SPARQL query using the prefix *custom*.
You can also use a full URI to identify the function that is going to be registered.
