Using aliases

The current implementation of using aliases is weak, and may be changed in subsequent releases. Alias management is a potential future addition.

Base

The base: alias indicates the root of your Solid pod. Executing a command using this alias will target the root of your pod, if it is known. This value is taken from the pim:storage triple in the WebID. In case multiple storage locations are available, results in using this may be inconsistent.
The following command wil make a listing of the root of the Solid pod of the current user.

sld ls base:/

WebID

The webid: alias will target the user WebID.
The following command wil retrieve the user WebID.

sld curl webid:

Inbox

The inbox: alias targets the user inbox, if known. This value is taken from the ldp:inbox triple in the WebID.
The following command queries the inbox for events

sld query inbox:/ "Select ?event where { ?event a <http://example.org/Event> }
