rudof

Latest Version PyPI rudof dependency status

This repo contains an RDF data shapes library implemented in Rust. The implementation supports ShEx, SHACL, DCTap and conversions between different RDF data modeling formalisms.

The code can be used as a Rust library but it also contains a binary called rudof which can be used as an RDF playground.

We provide binaries for Linux, Windows, Mac and Docker (see releases), as well as Python bindings.

Installation

Official releases

You can download a binary from the latest release page. There you will also find the compiled packages for the installation on your system using a package manager.

Ubuntu

Download the binary from https://github.com/rudof-project/rudof/releases and install the .deb package running the following commands after replacing X.X.X by the latest version:

wget https://github.com/rudof-project/rudof/releases/download/vX.X.X/rudof_vX.X.X_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i rudof_vX.X.X_amd64.deb

Windows

The binary can be downloaded from https://github.com/rudof-project/rudof/releases

Mac

The binary is available at: https://github.com/rudof-project/rudof/releases so you can download the corresponding binary to your machine.

The usual way to run/install a binary in Mac is to download it in a folder, add that folder to your PATH and activating the binary using:

chmod +x <binary_file>

After that, I think the processor may complain the first time about security and you have to agree to use it...once you agree, it should work.

Compiling from source

Compiling from source

rudof has been implemented in Rust and is compiled using cargo. The command cargo run can be used to compile and run locally the code.

For example:

cargo run -- validate --data examples/user.ttl --schema examples/user.shex --shapemap examples/user.sm 

Compiling from source and installing the binary (Debian)

Install cargo deb (only the first time)

cargo install cargo-deb

Create the .deb package by:

cargo deb

And run:

sudo dpkg -i target/debian/rudof_0.0.11-1_amd64.deb

Docker

The library is also published as a Docker image.

Usage

Some examples

The folder examples contains several example files with ShEx schemas and RDF data.

Validate a simple RDF file with a ShEx schema using a ShapeMap

rudof validate --data examples/user.ttl --schema examples/user.shex --shapemap examples/user.sm

We maintain a Wiki page with some common Usage scenarios and How-to guides.

Debugging information

It is possible to change the debug level information with:

export RUST_LOG=value

where value can be debug to show more verbose information or info to show basic information.
