  1. Chrome LOD extension
  2. ====================
  3.  
  4. An extension for Chrome that looks for the presence of Linked Open
  5. Data behind the pages you browse and if available, reveals the
  6. underlying data.
  7.  
  8. Debugging/Building
  9. ------------------
  10.  
  11. In Chrome, open the tools/extensions page, ensure that developer mode
  12. is selected, and click to 'load unpacked extension...'. Select the
  13. directory you checked out the chrome-lod source to. This should
  14. enable the extension directly.
  15.  
  16. In order to package the extension for deployment, use the 'pack
  17. extension' button, which will result in a chrome-lod.crx file and
  18. associated keyfile.
  19.  
  20. Rationale
  21. ---------
  22.  
  23. The extension runs once on each page you visit, looking for <link>
  24. tags in the page with relationship 'meta' or 'alternate' pointing to a
  25. URI with media-type application/rdf+xml or text/turtle. Failing that,
  26. the extension will attempt to do content negotiation on the current
  27. URI, asking for application/rdf+xml or text/turtle representation of
  28. the current resource.
  29.  
  30. If an RDF representation is available, it will be rendered behind the
  31. current page and a peel-back animation will reveal the background RDF
  32. data as the mouse hovers over the top left corner of the page.
