22 .SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
cannam@85
|
23 This is a simple validator which checks that all used properties are actually
|
|
cannam@85
|
24 defined, and that the domain and range of properties is explicitly correct.
|
|
cannam@85
|
25 Note that an "error" from this program does not necessarily mean data is
|
|
cannam@85
|
26 invalid, since it is not required to explicitly list types in RDF, however it
|
|
cannam@85
|
27 is a good idea to do so.
|
|
cannam@85
|
28
|
|
cannam@85
|
29 This program never retrieves data from the web or magical places on the file
|
|
cannam@85
|
30 system, it only processes files passed directly on the command line. This
|
|
cannam@85
|
31 means you must pass all used vocabularies to get a useful result.
|
|
cannam@85
|
32
|
|
cannam@85
|
33 If an appropriate schema is available, literals are checked against datatype
|
|
cannam@85
|
34 definitions (both the explicit datatype of the literal itself as well as any
|
|
cannam@85
|
35 types implied by the corresponding property). Three XML Schema Datatypes (XSD)
|
|
cannam@85
|
36 constraints are currently supported: regular expressions (xsd:pattern), and
|
|
cannam@85
|
37 inclusive range (xsd:minimumInclusive and xsd:maximumInclusive). Given an
|
|
cannam@85
|
38 appropriate schema, this is enough to validate against most of the standard XSD
|
|
cannam@85
|
39 datatypes.
