kandi X-RAY | pySHACL Summary

pySHACL is a Python library typically used in Utilities, Validation, Pytorch applications. pySHACL has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. However pySHACL build file is not available. You can install using 'pip install pySHACL' or download it from GitHub, PyPI.

A Python validator for SHACL. This is a pure Python module which allows for the validation of RDF graphs against Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) graphs. This module uses the rdflib Python library for working with RDF and is dependent on the OWL-RL Python module for OWL2 RL Profile based expansion of data graphs.

QUESTION

SHACL SPARQLTarget not validating the SPARQL query output nodes

Asked 2022-Mar-12 at 10:21

I have a NodeShape with a sh:SPARQLTarget . I tried to run the Target SPARQL query in an ontology editor and it delivered results, but when I'm executing the same query in my custom target node shape in sh:select, it won't validate the target nodes returned by the SPARQL query. I am using pySHACL. Did I do something wrong? I'm out of ideas. Here is my Nodeshape and data graph:

I have used “” for sh:select instead of “”” “””, since I am defining the shapes_graph as a variable in my python code and it is already encoded in """ """. I have also enabled meta_shacl=True in pyShacl to ensure that my shapes_graph is valid. Also the nodeShape (snomed:dob363698007Shape) works well when provided with a normal TargetClass or TargetNode. What am I missing?

I've put your shacl shapes file and data graph into PySHACL to isolate the issue you are seeing.

There are two problems with your given setup that I have found.

Firstly, SPARQL-Based Targets is a feature from the SHACL Advanced Specification. PySHACL does not enable the Advanced-Spec features by default. You can enable "advanced mode" by passing advanced=True to the validation module, or -a or --advanced on the commandline tool.

That is the main reason your SPARQL target was not selecting the nodes you expected.

Next, after enabling advanced mode, you will see that PySHACL fails when loading your SHACL Shape Graph. That is because your prefix namespace is not declared correctly.

See the examples in the SPARQL-Prefixes section of the Spec document. The specification states

"The values of sh:namespace are literals of datatype xsd:anyURI."

Your sh:namespace is a URIRef, not a Literal. Changing the namespace declaration to the following, fixes the error.

QUESTION

SHACL validate existing domain and range definitions?

Asked 2022-Jan-22 at 02:23

I want to validate the existing rdfs:domain and rdfs:range statements of an existing ontology and knowledge base with SHACL. However it seems like it is extremely verbose to do that with SHACL.

Existing Definition ...

ANSWER

Answered 2022-Jan-22 at 02:23

Let me start by saying that rdfs:domain and rdfs:range are not constraints and don't mean what you imply. They are merely producing inferences. Having said this, many people have in the past used them to "mean" constraints simply because there was no other modeling language. For background, see

https://www.topquadrant.com/owl-blog/

If you don't want to duplicate the RDFS triples as individual SHACL constraints, you can write a single generic SHACL shape that has sh:targetSubjectsOf rdfs:domain (and range) and then uses a SPARQL constraint to check that there is no instance of a class other than the domain class that has values for the given property. The end result would be that all rdfs:domain statements would be checked at once.

But arguably RDFS should be left alone. If you want to use closed-world semantics you should use a language that has been designed for that purpose, i.e. SHACL.

QUESTION

How to validate literal values with no datatype definition in SHACL?

Asked 2022-Jan-12 at 00:05

I assumed that not having any datatype is implicitly the same as having xsd:string as datatype, however SHACL gives me a validation error. Is my assumption wrong or is that just not covered by SHACL? In the latter case, how do I validate that the datatype is either empty or xsd:string?

string.ttl ...

ANSWER

Answered 2022-Jan-12 at 00:05

In your example the data contains an rdf:langString literal, which is not the same datatype as xsd:string - you see the @en language tag. You probably refer to the fact that the following would be equivalent: "Hello World" and "Hello World"^^xsd:string. So the pyshacl result above looks correct to me.

ANSWER

Answered 2020-Apr-22 at 18:09

It is important to understand how property paths work. A path is used to reach values. When using sh:path [sh:zeroOrMorePath rdf:path] and considering the node hr:Longer, it will reach three values -- (0) hr:Longer, (1) hr:Employee, and (2) rdfs:Class.

With this concept firmly in mind, what is going on in (B) and why it does not work can be fully explained.

Both (A) and (B) have the same target definition and will return the same focus nodes. These are:

ANSWER

Answered 2020-Apr-16 at 16:33

What follows results in the expected validation errors, however, there are still several things I do not understand.

The sh:prefixes hr: ; is not needed. It is designed to supply prefixes for the SPARQL target SELECT statement itself and nothing more.
Inference needed to be disabled. It was inserting triples and trying to validate them. In this use case, that is not what is desired. What should be validated is what is in the schema and nothing else.
I was also thinking that it would not be an issue to put everything into a single graph based on what apparently was a misunderstanding of https://github.com/RDFLib/pySHACL/issues/46.

When you use the individual files, pySHACL has no way of knowing what to associate your Shape file's hr:Employee NodeShape with. It seems to know when it's in that single file (perhaps it runs against all classes in the file??).

So:

rename the Employee shape to not overload the hr:Employee class name: hr:EmployeeShape
add back in the sh:targetClass directive:
