Hi Håvard,
Some initial feedback on the ShaclSail
Minor issue: typo’s in the Exception messages in “sail/shacl/AST/ShaclProperties.java” , often the message contains “aleady” (r is missing)
As mentioned before, I’m (ab)using the ShaclSail to validate a larger data set (600 K triples loaded into a MemStore) at once, instead of validating small changes,
with this set of rules from the European Semic/Joinup platform:
https://github.com/SEMICeu/dcat-ap_shacl/blob/master/shacl/dcat-ap.shapes.ttl
It didn’t work initially, because the SHACL rules don’t explicitly set a targetClass (they rely on implicit class targets instead => NoShapesLoadedException),
So I added a targetClass on dcat:Catalog, dcat:Dataset and dcat:Distribution.
With the 3.0-snapshot it took about 13 minutes to load and validate on an old Core i5 Windows laptop, which is acceptable for my purposes.
With the experimental parallel validation enabled it took 11 minutes.
I’ll have to dig into the report to verify the validation errors, but it looks promising.
Best regards
Bart
