Overview#

The shacl directory contains the SHACL (Shapes Constraint Language) validation module. It validates RDF data against SHACL shape definitions to ensure data quality and conformance to defined schemas.

Modules#

  1. validator.mjs — ES6 module that validates RDF triples against SHACL shape definitions using the rdf-validate-shacl library, generating conformance reports with violation details.

Features#

  • SHACL validation of RDF graphs against shape definitions.

  • Conformance reporting with detailed violation information (focus node, path, severity, message).

  • ES6 module format (.mjs) for modern Node.js import support.

Usage#

  • The validator is called from Express route handlers when the user triggers SHACL validation from the frontend.

  • It receives RDF data and SHACL shapes, runs validation, and returns a conformance report.
