NAME

       sord_validate - Validate RDF data

SYNOPSIS

       sord_validate [OPTION]... INPUT...

OPTIONS

       -h     Print the command line options.

       -l     Print errors on a single line.

       -v     Display version information and exit.

DESCRIPTION

       This  is  a  simple  validator  which  checks that all used properties are actually defined, and that the
       domain and range of properties is explicitly correct.  Note that an "error" from this  program  does  not
       necessarily mean data is invalid, since it is not required to explicitly list types in RDF, however it is
       a good idea to do so.

       This program never retrieves data from the web or magical places on the file system,  it  only  processes
       files  passed  directly  on  the  command  line.  This means you must pass all used vocabularies to get a
       useful result.

       If an appropriate schema is available, literals  are  checked  against  datatype  definitions  (both  the
       explicit  datatype  of  the  literal  itself as well as any types implied by the corresponding property).
       Three XML Schema Datatypes (XSD) constraints are currently supported: regular expressions  (xsd:pattern),
       and  inclusive  range (xsd:minimumInclusive and xsd:maximumInclusive).  Given an appropriate schema, this
       is enough to validate against most of the standard XSD datatypes.

EXAMPLES

       sord_validate `find ~/schemas/ -name '*.ttl'` data.ttl
