since: 3.1

#### Description [src]

    final class Tracker.EndpointHttp : Tracker.Endpoint
      implements Gio.Initable {
      /* No available fields */
    }

`TrackerEndpointHttp` makes the RDF data in a `TrackerSparqlConnection` accessible to other hosts via HTTP.

This object is a `TrackerEndpoint` subclass that exports a `TrackerSparqlConnection` so its RDF data is accessible via HTTP requests on the given port. This endpoint implementation is compliant with the SPARQL protocol specifications and may interoperate with other implementations.

    // This host has "example.local" hostname
    endpoint = tracker_endpoint_http_new (sparql_connection,
                                          8080,
                                          tls_certificate,
                                          NULL,
                                          &error);

    // From another host
    connection = tracker_sparql_connection_remote_new ("http://example.local:8080/sparql");

Access to HTTP endpoints may be managed via the `TrackerEndpointHttp::block-remote-address` signal, the boolean return value expressing whether the connection is blocked or not. Inspection of the requester address is left up to the user. The default value allows all requests independently of their provenance, users are encouraged to add a handler.

If the provided `GTlsCertificate` is `NULL`, the endpoint will allow plain HTTP connections. Users are encouraged to provide a certificate in order to use HTTPS.

As a security measure, and in compliance specifications, the HTTP endpoint does not handle database updates or modifications in any way. The database content is considered to be entirely managed by the process that creates the HTTP endpoint and owns the `TrackerSparqlConnection`.

A `TrackerEndpointHttp` may be created on a different thread/main context from the one that created `TrackerSparqlConnection`.

#### Constructors

###### tracker_endpoint_http_new

Sets up a Tracker endpoint to listen via HTTP, in the given `port`. If `certificate` is not `NULL`, HTTPS may be used to connect to the endpoint.

#### Instance methods

##### Methods inherited from TrackerEndpoint (7)

###### tracker_endpoint_get_allowed_graphs

Returns the list of RDF graphs that the endpoint allows access for.

since: 3.7

###### tracker_endpoint_get_allowed_services

Returns the list of external SPARQL endpoints that are allowed to be accessed through this endpoint.

since: 3.7

###### tracker_endpoint_get_readonly

Returns whether the endpoint is readonly, thus SPARQL update queries are disallowed.

since: 3.7

###### tracker_endpoint_get_sparql_connection

Returns the `TrackerSparqlConnection` that this endpoint proxies to a wider audience.

###### tracker_endpoint_set_allowed_graphs

Sets the list of RDF graphs that this endpoint will allow access for. Any explicit (e.g. `GRAPH` keyword) or implicit (e.g. through the default anonymous graph) access to RDF graphs unespecified in this list in SPARQL queries will be seen as if those graphs did not exist, or (equivalently) had an empty set. Changes to these graphs through SPARQL updates will also be disallowed.

since: 3.7

###### tracker_endpoint_set_allowed_services

Sets the list of external SPARQL endpoints that this endpoint will allow access for. Access through the `SERVICE` SPARQL syntax will fail for services not specified in this list.

since: 3.7

###### tracker_endpoint_set_readonly

Sets whether the endpoint will be readonly. Readonly endpoints will not allow SPARQL update queries. The underlying `TrackerSparqlConnection` may be readonly of its own, this method does not change its behavior in any way.

since: 3.7
