    - #### TRIPLE_BNODE_MAPPER

          @Experimental
          public static java.util.function.Function<Triple,Resource> TRIPLE_BNODE_MAPPER

      A `Function` that maps `Triple` to `BNode` consistently. Multiple invocations for the same `Triple` will return the same `BNode`. The current implementation creates a `BNode` by encoding the string representation of the `Triple` using base64 URL-safe encoding.

    - #### consume

          public static void consume(ValueFactory vf,
                                     Resource subject,

      Creates one or more `Statement` objects with the given subject, predicate and object, one for each given context, and sends each created statement to the supplied `Consumer`. If no context is supplied, only a single statement (without any assigned context) is created.
      Parameters:

        `object` - the object of each statement. May not be null.
        `consumer` - the `Consumer` function for the produced statements.
        `contexts` - the context(s) for which to produce statements. This argument is an optional vararg: leave it out completely to produce a single statement without context.

    - #### convertRDFStarToReification

          @Experimental
          public static void convertRDFStarToReification(Statement st,
                                                                       java.util.function.Consumer<Statement> consumer)

      Converts the supplied RDF* statement to RDF reification statements, and sends the resultant statements to the supplied consumer. If the supplied statement is not RDF* it will be sent to the consumer as is.

      The statements needed to represent reification will use blank nodes.

      Parameters:
        `st` - the `Statement` to convert.
        `consumer` - the `Consumer` function for the produced statements.

    - #### convertRDFStarToReification

          @Experimental
          public static void convertRDFStarToReification(ValueFactory vf,
                                                                       Statement st,
                                                                       java.util.function.Consumer<Statement> consumer)

      Converts the supplied RDF* statement to RDF reification statements, and sends the resultant statements to the supplied consumer. If the supplied statement is not RDF* it will be sent to the consumer as is.

      The statements needed to represent reification will use blank nodes.

      The supplied value factory is used to create all new statements and blank nodes.

      Parameters:
        `vf` - the `ValueFactory` to use for creating statements.
        `st` - the `Statement` to convert.
        `consumer` - the `Consumer` function for the produced statements.

    - #### convertRDFStarToReification

          @Experimental
          public static void convertRDFStarToReification(ValueFactory vf,
                                                                       java.util.function.Function<Triple,Resource> reifiedIdMapper,
                                                                       Statement st,
                                                                       java.util.function.Consumer<Statement> consumer)

      Converts the supplied RDF* statement to RDF reification statements, and sends the resultant statements to the supplied consumer. If the supplied statement is not RDF* it will be sent to the consumer as is.

      The supplied value factory is used to create all new statements.

      The supplied mapper function maps a `Triple` to a `Resource` and is used to create the ID of the RDF reification statement corresponding to the converted triple. The function must return the same value for identical triples in order to produce consistent results between invocations. See `TRIPLE_BNODE_MAPPER`.

      Parameters:
        `vf` - the `ValueFactory` to use for creating statements.
        `reifiedIdMapper` - the mapper `Function` from `Triple` to `Resource`.
        `st` - the `Statement` to convert,
        `consumer` - the `Consumer` function for the produced statements.
